1. Hi
2. Wtf is wrong with you??
It's probably originated from the late 20th century, when people were astounded with the sky. The only thing that they would reply was "nothing"
Probably the first term to the
decline of western civilization
Example:
1. Person 1: What's up?
Person 2: "Nothing" (most common response, maybe 99% of people say that)
2. Person 1: What's up?
Person: "
The sky" (
smart alleck answer: also: "the ceiling" or, "da
roof")

Possibly derived from "what's the update." Extremely overused, almost exclusively by
America's youth.
Sometimes
I wonder why people always ask each other the same question
over and over again, when answer is always "nothing." Are we really that dull?

A question about what another has his attention on. What is he thinking about or
busy with? "Up" in this
usage is referring to a
slag from around the 1930s meaning: occupied with or busy with.
Example:
When I saw him he was
angry so
I asked "what's up?". But he would not
tell me what he was angry about.

A two letter

A fucking annoying question which people answer incorrectly by saying "
The sky dumb idiot" or "The
ceiling" like that, it is a feeling question.
