yadda yadda yadda
And so forth
Yadda yadda yadda stands in for tedious details the speaker wants to skip over: We met for coffee, talked about work, yadda yadda yadda, and now we're engaged.
It signals that intervening material is predictable, unimportant, or deliberately glossed over—sometimes to hide something significant in plain sight.
Also spelled yada yada yada.
