Get the What’s hoeing on mug.A slightly more polite way to say "Anyway..." or "Moving on..." in response to something you don’t find particularly engaging (mildly interesting) or not worth further discussion (inconsequential information), with a reduced probability of hurting or ignoring someone entirely.
