A trite, overused and infuriatingly meaningless cliche that is utilized by provincials who think they are adding some deep, meaningful insight during a discussion when all they are offering is senseless, unwarranted repetitiveness to what would otherwise be a far better conversation had they not shown the shallowness of the gene pool they spawned from by using this asininely useless and redundant phrase to begin with.

Robin: My house burned down last night. It is what it is.
Aidan: Fuck you, provincial.
Robin: My house burned down last night. It is what it is.
Aidan: Fuck you, provincial.
