what even 

Contraction of "what is this I don't even". Typed when you're too astounded to tap out more than 9 keystrokes. Spoken when you're too stupefied for words.

NOT to be confused with whatever.

ME: ZOMG this dude tossing a tuxedo cat toward the hula hoops on the wall while two girls were kissing behind booze bottles is the best LOLcat EVER!

YOU: what even

A way to express confusion over a situation or an object... can be followed by the thing that is confusing, or just said by itself, usually with "this" at the end.

what even is nothing? 

Nothing is non existent because if nothing was real then it wouldn't be nothing. But, "Nothing", used as a pronoun subject, is the absence of a something or particular thing that one might expect or desire to be present or the inactivity of a thing or things that are usually or could be active.

person 1: hey

person 2: Hi!

person 1: What even is nothing

person2: uhh... I... whoah...what is nothing?

Being defined... "Nothing", used as a pronoun subject, is the absence of a something or particular thing that one might expect or desire to be present or the inactivity of a thing or things that are usually or could be active.

Now you can answer...
