It Is What It Is

A statement made by someone who wants to avoid an argument or has no intent of engaging on an issue, because they know fine damn well they've screwed up and they'd definitely be on the losing end of things.

Often taken up by egomaniac head coaches who just lost a game they should have had sewn up (e.g. Alex Ferguson, Jose Mourinho, Bill Belichick etc - Jerry Glanville for the teenagers) or someone in management fond of punching down who just fucked over an employee. Again.

'Bill, you really weren't ready for that hook-and double lateral that won the game for Miami today. Why did you put Gronkowski on the field in defense when Kenyan Drake was always going to breeze past him?' 'It is what it is.'

'You've got me in on a national holiday shift where there's no more buses home ten minutes before I'm done and a taxi would cost more than half what I'd make in that shift. Every time this happens.' 'It is what it is. Sort it out yourself.'

WHAT DOES IT?!

A modification in phraseology to contend with the urban slang usage of "what it do?!" as a way of asking a question. In my URBAN EXPRESSIONISM© style of creating, this mode off speaking was created back in 2005. The phrase serves as an 'urban diction" in sentence-fragment structure to question "How's it going?" and/or "What's going on?"

Usages:
Surf culture speech
Urban culture speech

Hey, brah, what does it ?!"
Yo, man, what does it?!
