The phrase "que hora es" translates to "What time is it?" in Spanish, but many people (stan Twitter) found a way to put a twist on it.
Using this word without the implied Spanish meaning is basically a way of expressing genuine confusion.
Ex.
person 1: have you ever eaten a cockroach sandwich before? they're soooo good.
Person 2: bitch?? what?? que hora es??

Used when something is more than lit. The phrase refers to a Pheonix being reborn out of flames, you take nix out of pheonix and get nix.
Guy: Brooo that party was lit! A firecracker almost blew off Lady Gaga's wig and I won 40,000 dollars!
Guy 2: Nah, man. That shit-- that shit was nix.
