daydreaming about something completely
unrelated. Usually said after saying
something else, completely random.
Example:

Bob:sobytheewaywhatdoyouthinkofthisandyouandmeandher..
You:
I like Tacos.

A phrase used to back the conversation up when you realize you weren't listening. You caught the ice cream end of the conversation,and oops, you wish you had heard the meat and potatoes. It could be important, so you use this phrase to try and sneak by the fact that you were thinking about dirty pics
and bacon cheeseburgers while your friend was pouring their heart out. Hopefully they're so
distraught they'll
rewind and repeat without noticing.

A phrase often spoken after answering a question with a
rote or
automatic response, only to realize you didn't really understand
the question, and likely did not mean your answer.
Example:
Friend: "I know you don't like fish, so I went ahead and ordered you
the raw squid."
You: "
That's great. Wait, what?"
wait...what?

Mantra of the Attention Deficit Disordered. Literally: stop talking and
start over. Needs a good full
1 second pause between words. "wait (
one thousand one) what?" and it's vital that eye contact is not made.
Example:
" so were both going to have to
go in both cars so we can leave one for Will at his work so he won't have to
get a ride home."
... ... "
wait...what?"
wait what

When someone is talking so fast or talking about such
nonsensical things you can’t understand that you
just have to hold your
hand up and say, wait, what? Also used as an expression of surprise.
Example:
Example 1:
Julie: OMIGOSH Jessica, the craaaaziest thing happened today ooh
crayfish anywaaaay so yeah the absolutely most crazy thing yeah so Anna was like
whaaat and I was like whaaat and Jordan was like what are you whaaating about and like-
Jessica: Wait, what?
Example 2:
Daughter: Hey, mom.
Mom: Hey. Your belly is kinda bloated. You ate a lot today, huh?
Daughter: Oh, actually,
I’m pregnant. Did I not tell you?
Mom: Wait, what?
