How do you tell the world that your discovery of a new virus isn’t that big a deal? Simple: You name it “Yada yada,” the catchphrase made famous in a 1997 Seinfeld episode.

Yada yada means “boring or empty talk,” according to the Merrian-Webster dictionary, which notes that the phrase is “often used interjectionally, especially in recounting words regarded as too dull or predictable to be worth repeating.”
