what happened?

Non-sensical, over-used replacement for "could you please repeat that?" Generally uttered by white males in the 12-16 year-old demographic. Enhances one's ability to sound like a moron.

Roger: "Hey, Joe, what time is it?"
Joe: "What happened?"

And then what happened?

A phrase used after someone has told the punch line of a joke you’ve heard before.

“And then what happened?”

Whats happening?

You asking it, so you know whats going on with the other person.

For instance: "whats happening?"

"Shit, nutting man, keeping it real, popping that shit".

What happened to you?

A stunningly inappropriate and thoughtless question often blurted toward a handicapped person, the only proper answer to which is "Don't ask".

"What happened to you?" asked the seemingly civilized man of the woman who was struggling mightily to take each halting step. Yet she needed no reminder of how hard it was to move, or of how many years she had been in pain. She was under no obligation to answer the moronic stranger, who in any event seemed to want no answer and quickly began prattling about his skiing accident, years ago, which he believed would be fascinating to a woman with a permanent handicap, but, please... don't ask.
