As I see it, there are two ways of looking at it.

One is a somewhat lackadasical attitude...tak payah ambil berat punya cara......I am not bothered....

The other is to say that you need not worry so much. Things happen because it happens and there is nothing anyone can do about it. This is good for chronic worriers, depressed people and such like.

It depends on how you feel.

One can 'so what' in anger, pride, or in courageousness good humored state.

So, therea re different kind of "so whatting" which can be, different.;)

Different mood gives different meaning to this statement.
In an anger mood it means offensive and rude.

I see "so what...." as something positive. It means that there should be justification to what was said previously.

...and if you can respond appropriately and adequately to that, your point becomes stronger and more reliable ....

so what...probably what he meant was let nature take its course...

tapi so what attitude amongst certain malaysians is just plain ignorance.

At first glance, it may seems so. But actually what people think of us is their own business and we really can't control them.

We're just choosing not to get upset over their opinion on us. We don't hurt or harm anyone.

well depends on what is perceived to be subjective but mostly in clinical worlds this phrase is viewed as being "defensive" and it's pretty immature.

Need to understand it lah so as not to miscommunicate.

Bullseye...macam "so what" juga...

but then Hami, the so " what"  i.e indifference attitude  also needs to be looked at the context in which it is uttered, for a UNI student who needs to buck up on something and somehow still managed to adopt this attitude then i would say - he does not care.

At some points in life, try not to be in this mode of " indifference" too much, you are depreciating the life itself, heedless on everything especially when something seriously needs your  attention or involving matters like relationship, attitude, or in terms of human interaction etc etc. However, that does not mean  u need to be serious all the time. So, moderation and good judgment are the keys to this.
