blah-blah
Tedious meaningless talk
Blah-blah represents empty or tedious talk—words that aren't worth repeating verbatim.
It dismisses what someone said as boring, predictable, or unimportant: He went on about responsibility, consequences, blah-blah-blah.
The reduplication mimics the droning quality of speech you've tuned out.
Also blah blah blah.
