O RLY?, short for "Oh, really?" is a popular Internet phenomenon, typically presented as an image macro featuring a snowy owl. The usual conversation flow starts with O RLY?, triggering a YA RLY ("Yeah, really") response, and then ending with NO WAI!!! ("No way"). There are many additional shortened words that can follow.
The phrase "O RLY?" is typically used in a sarcastic or sardonic manner: it may be used to mock AOL speak or indicate that the original post was blatantly obvious. One may also troll by posting O RLY? in response to a lengthy post.
