What Does IDEC Mean in a Text?

The Quick Answer

IDEC means "I Don't Even Care."

More Observations...

The abbreviation IDEC indicates that the sender has no opinion or interest in a subject. For example:
  • Sam: Shall I have tea or coffee this morning?
  • Ali: IDEC what you make, just hurry up.
  • Lee: You are so ugly, when you looked in the mirror your reflection walked away.
  • Jo: Dick head. IDEC what you think.
IDEC is often used to indicate a genuine lack of interest, but is also used when the sender is interested, but doesn't want to admit it (especially in matters concerning relationships). For example, "IDEC that my ex is now dating my best friend." could mean that the sender genuinely is not interested in the activities of their ex and their best friend, or that they are very deeply hurt and don't want to admit it. Care should always be taken to assess the true meaning. When used in a truly dismissive way, IDEC is similar to DILLIGAF (Do I Look Like I Give A F*ck), but is far less abrupt.

An Academic Look at IDEC

IDEC can be considered an acronym, because it is formed by taking the initial letters of the words "I Don't Even Care" and pronouncing them together as a single word, "ee-deck." Other examples of acronyms are:
  • NASA - "National Aeronautics and Space Administration."
  • UNICEF - "United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund."
Acronyms are often used as shorthand in many professional fields, such as technology, business, medicine, and government, as well as in general chat. They can help save time and space when communicating, especially when talking about complex or technical information. Acronyms differ from initialism abbreviations, which are pronounced using their individual letters. For example:
  • BYO - "Bring Your Own."
  • GV - "Good Vibe."
