It is what it ain’t

The unfortunate reality that things are not what they seem to be. The correction of ‘it is what it is’.

As I live longer I reply to people who tell me: ‘It is what it is’; with ‘It is what it ain’t’ because I am not able to deny and therefore imply agreement.

it is what it is

Meaning #1 A phase used to instill a sense of acceptance in a situation. It is used to remind one of the unalterable elements of life. think of " I am who I am" The phaze defines things that cannot be changed, it to say "it is this way, so we have to accept it." An apple can never be an orange, even though if you wish, hope and dream it was an orange. it IS what it IS

Meaning #2 The condition of state of the present that has to be accepted.

1.I hate the fact that I wear a size 12 shoe, but it is what it is...

2. I was ashamed to tell him that my mom is an alcoholic, but it is what it.

It Is What It Is

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.

An interesting conversation is being had, when quite suddenly:

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