yeah, yeah

I heard you

Yeah, yeah is a dismissive response signaling that you've heard something before or don't need to be told: Yeah, yeah, I know I should exercise more.

It can express impatience with repetition or preachiness, brushing off advice or criticism without fully engaging.

Sometimes it's an ironic acknowledgment that you're about to ignore what was just said.
