What else is new informal sarcastic rhetorical question
The phrase is frequently said rather than asked as a question.
Used to mean that what one has just mentioned is not new or significant because it represents a continuing foreseeable or unpleasant situation.
"I rode my bike to school this morning" - "So, what else is new. You cycle every single day."
"She has just argued with her husband" - "They're always fighting like cat and dog. What else is new."
"We are starving" - "So, what else is new".
Do you see anything wrong?
Used to express something bad is happening again
Here we go again! Lisa has just asked to borrow my new dress.
