Like what??

The phrase “Like what??” started as a natural reaction among Gen Z and LGBTQ+ youth, especially in casual conversation or online. It’s used when someone says something off, confusing, or hypocritical—and instead of dragging them, you just hit them with: “Like what??”

It’s giving side-eye energy. It’s lowkey calling someone out without starting a fight.
Often used in texts, stories, TikToks, or memes with dramatic pause or sass.

This version of “Like what??” was created and popularized by younger online creators as a signature catchphrase or reaction word.
“They said they hate attention… while wearing neon green at 8 AM.”

like and subscribe

The phrase commonly used at the beginning of YouTube videos, reminding viewers to show support by liking the video and subscribing to the channel for more content. Hence, it becomes increasingly common for "Don't forget to like and subscribe" to be the first sentence of YouTube videos.
Every time I tune in to a new vlog, the first thing I hear is, 'Don't forget to like and subscribe!' It's like a ritual now.
