well uh you know guy

A phrase uttered in an attempt to make an excuse pertaining to why something did or did not happen.

Most often said as filler when trying to put together the excuse or explanation.
Jimmy: Hey Lil' Ricky did you drink all my beer bitch?

Lil Ricky: Well uh you know guy... it was there and I was thristy so I put a hurtin on that shit.

Jimmy: Asshole.
"Well you" (shortly just "wu") - a misspelling meaning good job, good one, nice one...etc. - meant either in honest or in ironical way as a spontaneous reaction on someone's action.

Originally coming from czech language's misspeling phrase "dobře ty" (dobře - well, ty - you) widely used amongst teenagers, but lately also spreading within wide public and also greatly deprecated by linguists and word-splitters.

It was originally meant to be just a positive would-be funny phrase, but subsequently became a sort of parasitic "lol-phrase" commenting someone's action or status without the one's instigation and either as a mean of honest praise, exaggeration (e.g. on someone's trivial success) or just "loling" on someone's failure or embarrassing event.
It can be occasionaly combined with a raised forefinger pointing to the person while saying it"

Many people also start using it in a joke as parody on the phrase itself as a kind of their defiance of it, but subsequently tend to use it excessivly as parasitic phrase.

Finally, 3rd or even 1st person mutations are also used with the same meaning.
e.g. - well he, well they, well me
"I finally managed to fix the problem." - "wellu";

one scores at a game - "WELLU!" *pointing forefinger* (could be a way of exaggeration);

"Unfortunately, I won't come tonight" - "wellu..." (expressing one's disapointment; fed-upness becase of someone's last minute cancel of appointment);

"ehm, i don't have the money yet...sorry" - "wellu" (expressing something like "wat?...hmmm...perfect...i was already counting with it..." when one has run out of words, don't know what to say in a pure surprise or it would be too long or worthless to say anything);

"She suddenly suprised me in underwear" - "wellu :D"

"I smashed my bike yesterday" - "lol...wellu"

one steps into a poo - "wellu"

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
