Get the I dont mean to be rude but mug.the newest, shortest version of the "Do you know what i mean?" break down. Popular in Philly. It can also describe a person, usually male, who may fit the stereo type of someone who would use this term alot. see example.
"I'm not tryin to get fired over this, Ya mean? "
"She would never go out with him, he's too much of a Ya-mean."

Get the Ya mean? mug.A very gorgeous girl who will always be there for you. Not everyone knows it but she is extremely smart. She is usually nice but if she has to she will kick some ass. Even when she has it bad she puts others first. she is usually a unconfident. Even though she shouldn’t be.

Get the Maranda mug.Depending on its position in a sentence or cluster thereof, a clarifying statement, a conversational stall, or a slightly apologetic amplifier. Rarely used in formal written communication, but common as a conversational particle in early 21st-century American English.
1. "That movie sucks! I mean, the FX were okay but the story was shit!"
Here, "I mean" is used to introduce a following clause which modifies the prior one. This usually has the effect of altering a very strong and general statement to instead reflect a specific contention.
2. "What's your favorite movie?"
"Hmm... I mean... I like Mission Impossible, but I also love Die Hard."
Here "I mean" covers the speaker's thought process and indicates that conflicting ideas are being weighed in the speaker's mind. It indicates that an answer has not yet been formulated, but does not invite the other speaker to continue talking.
3. "Man, that song is really great!"
"I mean, if you hate music."
Here "I mean" is used to indicate that the speaker has briefly thought of a more polite way to indicate the statement but can only express it in a blunt or sarcastic fashion. "I mean" only starts a statement of this nature if it is in response to someone else's statement, though it can be used in both to agree and disagree with said statement.

Get the Meanie-bag mug.it is an expression used for people we don't trust in.
In an emphatic and vulgar fashion it turns in "your word don't mean jacksh*t"

What you say is meaningless, you are not telling the truth, i can not trust in your words.
