What pops out when someone accidentally confesses things to you involuntarily due to your gypsy carney curse
Dave Grohl, MetaJennys incubus finally materials in her living room with A neceomancied Kurt contain after having quantum jumped to an alternate multiverse / 498 , ..." What ... Wait what?""you're here too"?they all scream in perfect synchrony as eminem sees wiz Khalifa and approx 74 other battlerappers naked together in a hot tub with one ogled chick.
A timeless phrase that is spoken or written whenever you suddenly realize what the person is actually saying, which often results in confusion or bewilderment. Honestly kinda comical in a way, as it's usually when the person says something unusual or unexpected that gets your full attention.
Doctor: Hey it's time for your monthly check up.
Timothy: Awesome.
Doctor: Did you take any pain relievers this past month?
Timothy: Nope.
Doctor: Did you experience any sort of sudden fatigue in your muscles, joints, or forehead this past month?
Timothy: Nope.

Doctor: Did you forget to take out the trash again?
Timothy: Nope, uh- wait what?
A “wait what” is a really annoying female who never knows what you’re talking about and half way through the conversation says “wait what”.
please don’t invite that “wait what” over.
