It's not what it looks like

It's EXACTLY what it looks like.

Josh expelled "It's not what it looks like!" when his girlfriend stormed into his room, only to continue with his obvious relations upon her leaving.

That's what she wants

A phrase similar to "That's what she said." Used to respond to something said that could be taken in a sexual way.

In the lunch line:

Matt: What did you order?

Jay: A meatball sub.

Matt: A 12 incher?

Jay: That's what she wants.

AYO WHAT THE FUCK

When you are least expecting something, but that something is worse than you intended.

Me: HE'S LOW, HE'S LOW!

Friend: I GOT HIM, I GOT HIM!

Boss: *Enters phase 2*

Both: AYO WHAT THE FUCK

it isn’t what it isn’t

A phrase stating the opposite of the ever popular and meaningless, “it is what it is,” but essentially meaning the same thing.

Well lemme remind ya honey, life can just simply suck sometimes; it isn’t what it isn’t.

Right, what's all this, then?

int - The official Motto of Scotland Yard. Used to question the happenings at a scene. Also a very uppity way of asking "What's going on?"

Phil: Evenin', mates.
John: Evenin', Phil. Blimey! *shoots Phil*
Policeman: Right, what's all this, then?

Snob A: Good evening, old sport.
Snob B: Right, what's all this, then?

what's your 20?

The phrase essentially means, "What is your location?" or "Identify your position," but is a corrupted phrase from the original "10-20" used by United States law enforcement to verbally encode their radio transmissions to that non-police listeners would not easily discover police operations, as well as to communicate quicker and more efficiently by standardizing frequently used phrases.

These verbally-coded messages were called "10 codes", of which "10-20" stood for "Identify your position," or "Where are you?" originally. Other such codes include "10-7" meaning the officer was busy such as with a traffic pull-over, "10-8" meaning that the officer was back on patrol such as from having just written a citation, the popular "10-4" as an affirmative, "10-10" as a negative and "10-22" to disregard a previous transmission have only seen light integration into common use. It was not uncommon for a city to have its own set of particular 10-codes for other phrases frequently used particular to that locale.

This code-phrasing is similar in design to Amateur Radio Operators' (which require an FCC license) use of Q-signals, such as QTH ("What is your location") and QSL ("affirmative/understood") used to reduce the time needed to transmit and interpret a Morse-code transmission.

A: What's taking so long?
B: I'm at a red light that won't turn green even though there's no cross-traffic.
A: What's your 20?
B: Avenue F and Kingston.

A: QSL.
