blah blah blah trope description blah blah blah This trope occurs when someone is listening to someone talk and all they can hear is "blah, blah, blah". Usually used for comedic effect, it indicates that the auditor finds the conversation irrelevant, incomprehensible, or boring. Or all of the above. Sometimes the trope is invoked literally: "Sorry doc, but all I heard of what you said was blah blah liver failure blah blah." Occasionally, this is represented visually from one character's point of view as a stream of words that all flow together. If one character is mocking another for being boring or predictable, they may repeat part of what they said and trail off into "blah blah blah" while performing impromptu Bare-Handed Puppetry. Common variations include "yadda yadda" and "something something." The irate versions can verge on Censored for Comedy. The overanalysed may be [Trope Name]. In some cases, it's Technobabble. If it is done by a teacher, the students may fall Asleep in Class. An older phrase of similar usage from British television is Rhubarb Rhubarb (or, rarely, Rabbit Rabbit). See also Audience Murmurs. May combine with Wall of Blather. |

Blah blah blah blah me me me." When Dory speaks up for Marlin and explains that he's trying to find his son Nemo, the fish are more willing to help him. | |

Sleepless Domain: While Undine is talking to Forte Lead at school about the former's unsuccessful attempts to find a new team the previous night, Pop Blitz rudely jumps into their conversation — only for Lead to ask her, "Um, have we met?". Undine walks away, amused, as the remaining two continue to argue in the background, where Blitz's dialogue is rendered as "nonsense nonsense." Lead responds with a confused "I don't care?" | |

The Far Side: With a dog translating machine. The translations? Strings of "Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!" Robotman also did a similar one, with the dog's barking translated as "Fleas, fleas, tail, fleas..." and the cat's meows as "Ball, ball, chase ball, tuna..." Another pair of strips show how a dog named Ginger hears her owner ("blah blah Ginger blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah Ginger blah blah blah blah blah...") and how a cat named Fluffy hears hers ("____________________________________"). |

Sluggy Freelance uses it sometimes in flashbacks, sometimes to show someone wasn't listening. One example with a bit of a twist is in "Monstrous - Darkest Wood" in a flashback about how the mushroom dryad tried to wipe Torg's and Sam's memories, but it didn't work on Sam because he was a vampire. Sam still looked brainwashed, but it was because the dryad was in her Gorgeous Gorgon form and Sam was staring at her cleavadge. In the flashback, she does some Evil Gloating and gives information the reader was already given, which is represented by "BLA BLA BLA." Then Sam recounts it to the other heroes as he best can remember, but his version goes "BLA BLA BOOB BLA BOOB BLA." | |

"You were the first twinklet, the mother of all the stars!" Starglo is not impressed, as she continues the story, "The keeper of starlight and wishes, burning brightly in the sky, blah blah blah blah. Yeah, I've heard the story, too." Though she does admit that the story is true, "Except for the 'blah blah blah' part. I made that up." | |

A subtle example occurs in a Coupling episode shown through the perspectives of various characters: When Patrick and Sally engage in small talk at an office party, she asks how he got there. In Patrick's version of events, he gives a ridiculously detailed account of the brand and specs of his car. In Sally's version of events, he just says "Car". When Susan shows up they also begin discussing all the food in the spread. In Sally's version each meat has its own type and description. In Patrick's, it is all just sausage. | |

That '70s Show: An entertaining variation: A conversation between Eric, Hyde, Kelso and Laurie takes place, involving Laurie shooting down Kelso's blatant attempts to hit on her. After she leaves, we see that Kelso only heard just enough of what Laurie said to him to string together a few sentences that make it seem like she wants him just as badly. Also, the episode "Who Wants it More?" had this mother-daughter exchange between Midge and Donna over the tactic of withholding sex from her husband to get him to do things: |

The Simpsons: This happens to Bart and Homer themselves in "Bart Gets an F", when speaking to a teacher and a psychiatrist about Bart's bad performance in school. When Bart tries to train Santa's Little Helper in "Bart's Dog Gets an F", that's all the dog hears. In a flashback in "Like Father, Like Clown", young Krusty also invoked this trope when poking fun at his father's profession as a Rabbi ("Blah, blah, blah, Moses!"). In "Rosebud", Homer used this in his roast of Mr. Burns at the latter's birthday celebration ("I'm Mr. Burns, blah, blah, blah! Do this, do that, blah, blah, blah!"). |

In the Western (as in, with cowboys) manga Miriam, an arrogant sheriff's boasting eventually fades into blah blahs before Douglas, the protagonist, ditches him. The same thing happens again later, though this time he's speechifying to the other two protagonists, Card and Joel, about how honest he is (despite the obvious corruption of the law in town). After he leaves, Card says "Now I understand why Douglas couldn't stand talking with him..." | |

RWBY: A Running Gag in Volumes 1-2 is that Professor Port constantly bores his classes with stories about his exploits as a Huntsman. The scene always focusses on something the kids are doing while Port is saying the words "Blah blah blah" either off-screen or in the background of the scene. On one occasion, it's because Ruby is goofing off in class and on another occasion, Weiss is silently watching the clock counting down to the end of the lesson while Jaune attempts to nervously ask her out on a date. Port is usually so wrapped up in his stories, he never notices students aren't listening, and sometimes even misses how much time has been lost from the lesson. | |

In one issue of Doctor Who Magazine, Steven Moffat writes his "Production Notes" column as a transcript of a writers' meeting. Producer Beth Willis's desperate attempts to convince him it's not important how many companions haven't met the Daleks quickly becomes "blah blah blah" until he emerges from his fugue with a triumphant "Nine!" | |

In Tales of Vesperia, casting magic spells usually involves long incantations, but going into Over Limit allows for Simplified Spellcasting. For Rita specifically, she shortcuts her spells with "Blah blah blah. TIDAL WAVE!!" (or whatever other spell she's doing). | |

Arrested Development: A recurring gag with the family's new lawyer Bob Loblaw, whose name when spoken out loud becomes blah blah blah. We're shown one of his commercials where he says what sounds like "You don't need double talk; you need Blah Blah Blah!" He also runs a website, the Bob Loblaw Law Blog. Season 5 introduces a similar gag with District Attorney Lottie Dottie, AKA Lottie Dottie DA (La-di-da-di-da). |

Scrubs: Note that this is what he actually said. "Shoe shopping" is used to similar effect in "My Big Bird." Anytime a girl says "shoe shopping," all men within earshot zone out and hear most likely nothing but "blah blah blah" until someone mentions bras or similar. Subverted later in the episode when Dr. Cox reveals to have gained immunity because of overexposure to his ex-wife, Jordan. |

Total Drama: Izzy doesn't care for Trent's defense that Heather tricked him into a kiss. In "Haute Camp-ture", she mocks him with a semi-Non Sequitur rant while talking with her right hand: "Yeah right, that's what they all say. My lips did what they wanted. My lips have a mind of their own. Blah blah blah blah! Fishcakes! Blah blah blah! I'm a liar! Blah blah blah!" Trent's more weirded out than offended. Amy cruelly ridicules Samey in "Twinning Isn't Everything" after the latter tried to stand up for herself and failed to get the team's support. Amy notes that she made a fool of herself and mockingly imitates her with the line, "Oh, I got the food and I'm the nice one! Blah blah blah!" In "Three Zones and a Baby", Chris isn't impressed with the show's lawyers demanding that he return the babies he's added to make a dangerous challenge even worse. His irreverence of the situation shines bright when he summarizes the phone call as "something about danger, and babies, and lawsuits, blah blah blah bleh bleh bleh," while talking with his right hand. |

One episode showed a "clip" from Murphy Brown in which the dialogue consisted of this and the name of some 1990s political figure. ("Blah-blah-blah John Sununu." "Blah-blah-blah Dan Quayle." "Murphy! You can't Blah-blah-blah the Ayatollah!" and so forth.) The trope did happen in an episode of Murphy Brown as well: Murphy speaks to Frank, and all he hears is a loud noise that sounds like a foghorn. | |

In Nineteen Eighty-Four there is a Newspeak word for it: "Duckspeak" meaning, to quack like a duck. It can be used as a compliment, when a party member spews proper gibberish propaganda without inflection or meaning (seen as a good thing—their political culture never discovered the sound bite), or as an insult if a rival is doing exactly the same thing. | |

Kaguya-sama: Love Is War: A narrative sequence describing Miyuki Shirogane's tendency to get on his sister Kei's nerves by being domineering had his nagging represented by him actually saying "Blah blah blah", "Nag nag nag", and the like. During the French exchange student welcoming partynote manga chapter 20; anime season 1, episode 4, Shirogane's comprehension of French is far behind that of most of the other students in the room, and the manga occasionally renders his lack of understanding of their language from his perspective as strings of random shapes. This is turned around on Betsy, whose withering French insults don't break him, but Kaguya, who does speak French, counters with a long-winded barrage of insults of her own that leave Betsy a gibbering wreck (some of which were deemed too extreme for publication). |

Chowder: It once has the title character listening to Mung Daal's lecture about midnight-snacking: Another episode shows Endive reading a fake love letter saying how beautiful she is, but when you see it all it says it "Dear Ms. Endive" then repeats blah for the entire page. Which implies that Mung actually wrote blah blah blah for almost an entire letter. Then again, she does have an obsession with him in that episode, so apparently she was crazy enough to fill in the blanks for herself and pretend he actually wrote them. In "Chowder's Catering Company", when Chowder arrives in the kitchen with a dirty fuzzball, we see Mung talking to Shnitzel, although we can only hear him say "blah blah blah". |

The Get Me Hennimore! sketches from That Mitchell and Webb Look. In each sketch, Hennimore's boss would give him two straightforward but mutually incompatible jobs, the central MacGuffins of which were indistinguishable from each other. Hilarity Ensued. In one episode, the audience was given an insight into Hennimore's head, where his boss's instructions consisted entirely of "blah blah blah" while he pictured the inevitable and imminent resulting disasters. | |

Digger: During Skull-Ridge's funeral, Digger and Grim Eyes have a brief argument over one of the hyenas's funerary traditions — eating the liver of the deceased — while Boneclaw Mother eulogizes the deceased. At one point, Boneclaw's dialogue turns into "Blah blah blah honor blah blah respect blah blah Skull Ridges—", with a footnote that this is strictly from Digger's perspective, as "not even Boneclaw Mother would do that." | |

In the Potter Puppet Pals episode, "School is for Losers", Snape accosts Harry and then tries to give him a stern reprimand for skipping potions class for several weeks in a row. We cut to Harry's point of view, where all he hears from said reprimand is Snape saying his name, otherwise to him it just sounds like Snape mumbling incoherently. | |

A pissed-off Blitzo vows revenge as he glares at the door for Verosika's office, but Moxxie interjects and tries to tell him that maybe a more diplomatic approach is need for dealing with Verosika and her crew, and goes on to say he maybe he is himself perhaps most fit for a said approach. As Moxxie speaks, Blitzo just keeps angrily staring at Verosika's office door while Moxxie's voice is muffled and mostly drowned out by a loud dial tone. | |

Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei has an instance which is likely a parody of the Azumanga Daioh example. Kaere, who pretends to know English, is asked to talk to an English-speaking foreigner. She goes up to him and like Yukari, starts saying "Pera pera." He then gives her a puzzled look and says in heavily accented but perfect Japanese, "That girl's English is terrible." In this case, it seems like the pera pera was what the character was literally saying. | |

Actually occurs in The Bible of all places: Isaiah 28:10 and 13. As translated by the NIV: "Do and do, do and do, rule on rule, rule on rule; a little here, a little there." (Hebrew: "Sav lasav, sav lasav, Kav lakav, kav lakav, Ze'er sham, ze'er sham.") This represents people mocking the prophet's words as meaningless blabber. The Message translation of the Bible actually says, "blah, blah, blah, blah". | |

The Fairly OddParents!: "Untranslated" girl talk: "Blah blah blah shoes! Blah blah blah clothes! Blah blah blah boyfriends! Blah blah blah. We'll never notice you." Also at the end of "The Secret Origin of Denzel Crocker" when Mr. Crocker comes on screen mentioning that he will someday catch a fairy, he gets stabbed in the rear by a wand, fired by Cosmo, who floats by saying "Blah blah blah blah blah..." while making a duck hand. "Channel Chasers" has the Walnuts cartoon, a parody of the Peanuts animated productions, and it spoofs the offscreen adults' "wah wah wah" muted trombone dialogue by having a similar sound saying "blah blah blah blah." Fairy babies experience this when they go through their "Pooferty" phase, in which their speech transitions from "Poof, poof" to eligible words. During the transition, they will speak nonsense gibberish which cannot be understood by anyone. "Information Stupor Highway" has Timmy's email message filled with "blahs" and "yaddas". |

Happens in Rhapsodies when Fran is taking notes at an economic meeting and hears only gibberish which quickly degenerates into perceiving nothing but pictures. Quickly inverted when we switch to her boss's point of view who perceives it all as baby talk. | |

The Father Ted episode "Cigarettes and Alcohol and Rollerblading" has the priests trying to give up their vices for Lent. As withdrawal kicks in, we see them hallucinating each other as giant talking cigarettes (in Ted's case) and pints of Guinness (in Jack's case), their speech reduced to just "blah blah blah". | |

Inverted in one FoxTrot comic, which has Paige complaining that the day has been boring, and it's just been one "blah" event after another. Cue Peter walking up to hear her actually say "blah blah blah" out of the legitimate context Paige had been using. This strip was possibly Amend lampshading, as early strips involved Paige's phone conversations literally written as "Blah blah blah blah blah". | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: Parodied when SpongeBob lets Gary sleep over at Patrick's rock-house, and while he's thinking, Patrick can only be heard saying "Blah blah blah." Then, when SpongeBob leaves, we get to hear the rest of Patrick and Gary's conversation: He's actually saying "Blah blah blah" instead of plain English. The same thing happens in "Band Geeks". The ambient noise of everyone talking before practice is revealed to everyone just saying blah blah blah. A similar thing happens in "Squidville" when SpongeBob calls Squidward on the phone. We hear Squidward's half of the conversation, with SpongeBob talking in muffled gibberish in the background. When Squidward hangs up, the scene switches to SpongeBob and Patrick, still talking in gibberish to each other. Same thing whenever Mrs. Puff is teaching and SpongeBob is distracted. Even when focus switches back to Mrs. Puff she is still saying 'blah blah blah'. Also in "I Had An Accident" where Sandy calls SpongeBob's decision to forever stay in his house 'crazy talk', Patrick interrupts and says that this is the "real" crazy talk: In the Season 6 episode "The Card", SpongeBob is trying to explain to Patrick how valuable his trading card is, but all Patrick could hear is 'blah blah blah'. A Running Gag in "Penny Foolish" involves Mr. Krabs rambling obsessively about something, only to cut to another fish listening in and hearing him make dolphin chirps or seal barks. |

Monty Python's Flying Circus: The show had a number of bizarre animated segments where characters would literally just start saying "blah" over and over again. Here is one such example. In the "Spanish Inquisition" sketch, instead of running down the list of their chief weapons a fifth time, Cardinal Ximinez settles for "Our chief weapon is surprise, blah blah blah blah..." |

In True Lies, when Harry is translating the Big Bad's villain speech for Helen, he starts giving it as, "We shall triumph over the evil Americans, blah blah blah," as if to imply he's heard it all before. Turns out that's pretty much a direct translation. | |

In "Boys Will Be Eds", as the boys suddenly find themselves infatuated with Nazz, her angry tangent about them making fun of Jimmy's Amusing Injuries trails off into "blah blah blah". |

A late 1980s/early 1990s UK campaign for Red Rock Cider paid homage to Police Squad!/The Naked Gun with a series of adverts in the same rapid fire, sight gag and wordplay-laden style as said series, featuring Leslie Nielsen reprising his role as Frank Drebin. In one advert, an airport public address system announces, with perfect enunciation, "Mumble mumble mumble. Thank you." | |

South Park: "Heh-heh, Rob Schneider, derp de derp! Derp de derpity derpee derp." A Real Trailer, Fake Movie for "Da Derp Dee Derp Da Teetley Derpee Derpee Dumb" (rated PG-13). "Derp" is a nonsense word that Trey Parker and Matt Stone invented while they were working on Cannibal! The Musical which they use in regards to things they think are really stupid. There was even a guy on South Park whose name was Mr. Derp. Now a part of the Internet's vocabulary. "RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE", which is yelled by pretty much every angry mob on the show. The "RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE" gets lampshaded occasionally. |

Family Guy: One episode showed a "clip" from Murphy Brown in which the dialogue consisted of this and the name of some 1990s political figure. ("Blah-blah-blah John Sununu." "Blah-blah-blah Dan Quayle." "Murphy! You can't Blah-blah-blah the Ayatollah!" and so forth.) The trope did happen in an episode of Murphy Brown as well: Murphy speaks to Frank, and all he hears is a loud noise that sounds like a foghorn. There's a bit about how to craft "perfect Star Wars dialogue," which consists of saying "something, something, something, Dark Side, something, something, something complete". And Something, Something, Something, Dark Side was used as the title of their spoof of The Empire Strikes Back. Another episode had Peter saying that Sting sings in such a way where you can only understand the last three words of a verse, followed by a cutaway of Sting singing his song "Brand New Day" thusly: A Cutaway Gag has actors reading the review for Our American Cousin. "Blah, blah, blah, Lincoln assassinated, blah, blah, blah, tragedy for our Republic. Uh... oh, look! Ably performed by the entire ensemble. That's us! That's all of us!" |

The visual effect aspect of this trope as mentioned in the description is played for dramatic effect early on in Katawa Shoujo, when Hisao reads the alarmingly long prescription list given to him by his doctor, detailing the various medications he would need to take daily for his heart condition. Snippets of the medical jargon used on it rapidly flood onto a white background, until the majority of it is rendered completely incomprehensible. | |

Frasier: Used twice in "Death and the Dog". Frasier and Martin start arguing about whether Eddie (the dog) can understand them - we cut to Eddie's point of view where all he can understand is his own name. Later, Frasier and Niles start having a psychiatric debate about Martin - we cut to Martin's point of view, where the only thing he can understand is the word "Dad". Frasier starts dating a woman who everyone else can see is the spitting image of his late mother. Niles starts ranting to their father about how Frasier doesn't see it, but Martin can't follow what he's saying. |
