Used when someone does/plans/talks about something a bit crazy. A lengthened version would be "What drug are you taking, to be high enough to do that". "What are you on" is usually followed up with "Do you want a list?" even if that person is not under the influence of drugs. N.B Used in Britain, less in America
Friend 1 : "I'm gonna jump off that cliff"
Friend 2 : "What are you on?"
Friend 1 : "Do you want a list?"
Friend 2 : "What are you on?"
Friend 1 : "Do you want a list?"

Originated in the ghetto streets of High Wycombe, England. Upon being insulted with the usual derogotory profanities, the person would then reply with this phrase. Making the person whol insulted you, think about what indeed are they. Realising they are nothing, this insult usually wins....

a question white people often ask when they are confused to seem ghetto in order to throw off the topic of conversation.
Person1: have you used that new cool music program?
person2: "what is you be!?"
person1 : what does that mean.
person2: "what is you be!?"
person1 : what does that mean.
