Used as an immediate response right after someone says something that is inappropriate, offensive, or inopportune. When used in this context, the word "know" is usually dragged out followed by an immediate sigh.
Example:
Jack: Yo man, I was the supermarket the other day ... and let me tell you, those middle aged mothers are HOT!
Steve: Ya know! *sigh* ....
Jack: Oh come on, I'm serious!
