[edit] WHAT?
A valid response to an overly lengthy journal entry or comment. Also used in response to an entry, question, comment, forum post, etc. that is just completely un-fucking-believably stupid.
WHAT is always a worthwhile addition to any conversation, demonstrating one's superior intellect and mastery of the English language. It was created by Borat.
The wrestler Stone Cold Steve Austin also used this term, and used to walk around with this written on a T-shirt in the form of "what?".
Whenever you find yourself in a situation on the internets where your opinion really matters, WHAT is for you!
Also apparently originating from the Something Awful forums, specifically FYAD. Something Awful invents everything, kind of like Al Gore and blacks. "What" is, of course, a bannable offense on SA nowadays.
Contrary to popular opinion, no one speaks English in What.
The use of 'what' is something that Sony ensures to employ in every Playstation 3 commercial. This is because they know that if they actually used any information about the console nobody would buy one. So instead, they broadcast 30 seconds of random bullshit and you go and spend over $9000. Isn't capitalism fun?
