According to a new Marist College Poll, "whatever" is considered as the most annoying expression for Americans, regardless of their race, gender, age or income. The meaning of "whatever" is definitely in how you deliver the word, like "i'm not gonna do it", or "i give up". So it depends, like the body language comes into play, and you understand what the person is saying.

"What's the meaning of 'whatever'?" ("The mean" means "the average". A completely different word.) It's often used as an interjection to mean "I don't care". Maybe as in, "Say/Do whatever you want; it means nothing to me."

It means "I don't care" Usually it is used when you are not in a good mood. 随便你想怎么样 (我不稀罕)

an expression of "I don't care" but also frustration at the same time.
