A phrase used to describe complete lack of interest in what another person is saying, considered rude or necessary, depending on the conversation.
Alternatively, this can be used as a defensive phrase, see examples, to attempt to save one's self from ridicule.
As a third option, it is also used as a peacemaking, forgiving phrase.
Rude-
Josh: My grandfather passed away this morning.
Jake: So what?

Necessary:
Josh: Oh my god, I think my shoelace is coming undone!!!!111oneone!!!
Jake: ...so what?

Defensive:
Josh: You're an ass, man.
Jake: So what?

Forgiving:
Josh: I'm sorry I called you an ass.
Jake: Forget about it, man. So what?
