I see what you're talking about

When someone is saying something that you have either

A) No clue what the fuck they are talking about, or
B) No interest in it whatsover.

It is basically saying "Shut the fuck up" without offending the person talking. And hopefully, they will get the hint and shut the fuck up.

Example A:

"So, if you just take the Rotation Muffler and place it into the X-axis, then you have a complete circuit."

".............I see what you're talking about."

Example B:

"So yeah, she lost the baby, dude. She's heartbroken about it."

"......I see what you're talking about."

"............You're an asshole, dude."

i tell you what

chiefly southern, esp texan. added at the end of pretty much anything, esp to add exclamatory sense to a clause. has a somewhat cryptic meaning known only to southerners. so you non-hicks, stop trying.

Bill's car is so red, I tell you what!
