-"[[So what]]?", a common phrase in the American vernacular, more or less stands for one or more of the following arguments:
-* I am not clear what conclusion you are attempting to imply with what you just said.
-* I do not see how what you just said alters the outcome of our discussion.
-* I do not see the logical connection between what you just said and the current topic.
-While its use is often dismissed as an immature tactic for avoiding [[rational]] debate, it is actually an entirely reasonable (if extremely compact) expression of basic [[skepticism]].
