{{quote|''D'OH! FREAKING PIZZAS!''
|'''[[Chuggaaconroy]]''', after another failure while playing ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]].''}}
A character is so angry, pissed off, or shocked that he or she is literally unable to form a coherent sentence. Other strong emotions are sufficient to render a person unable to speak proper English (or whatever language is being spoken at the time), but shock, anger, and pure rage are the most common. It usually takes a little while for him or her to recover, at which point he or she explodes into rage normally.
Line 8 ⟶ 9:
The technical name for this rhetorical device is "aposiopesis".
Usually includes [[Cluster F-Bomb]] (or sometimes just a [[Curse Cut Short]]). Do not confuse with [[Gratuitous English|Engrish]]. Also compare [[Sarcasm Failure]], [[Gagging

{{examples}}
== Anime and Manga ==
* In ''[[Katekyo Hitman Reborn]]'', Xanxus tends to do this when he reaches the apex of his fury (along with breaking out with his old scars). To quote just one instance:

** Well, what else would you expect from the Sin of Wrath?
* Sanji from ''[[
* In one chapter of ''[[Keroro Gunsou]]'', Keroro gets sick, and Tamama tries to visit him with gifts, hoping that by this point he's getting sick of "that dumb broad" (Angol Moa, whom he regards as a rival for the Sergeant's attention) trying to minister to him. Instead, he finds Moa is merely sitting quietly with Keroro at his bedside, upon which Moa politely asks Tamama to be quiet so Keroro can sleep. The flabbergasted Tamama simply babbles "My electrolytic quotient has been reduced to the laxity of damaged hair..."
* Monta from ''[[Eyeshield 21]]'' occasionally grunts incoherently when he gets mad enough, which doesn't help his case when [[I Resemble That Remark|he's mad about people pointing out his resemblance to a monkey]].
* [[Huge Schoolgirl|Koizumi]] of ''[[Lovely Complex]]'' descends into this occasionally.
* Shizuo from ''[[Durarara
* ''[[
== Comic Books ==
* In ''[[Mafalda]]'', an angry mother is so angry that she starts dropping vowels and entire words, and as such starts yelling only isolated words. The quote below does not mean anything: she's dropped so many vowels that it's been rendered complete nonsense. In parentheses is the intended meaning as translated by Mafalda.

** The quote above can be rendered intelligible if read with typical Argentinian intonation.
*** And even more so if you go to the market in Argentina when the prices are rising.
* Captain Haddock in the ''[[Tintin
** In ''[[Tintin
* One ''[[Popeye]]'' strip had Roughhouse so fed up with Wimpy's constant mooching that he had to be constrained to the hospital. He spends his recuperation growling and muttering Wimpy's catchphrases, such as "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today." or "I'd like to have you to a duck dinner. You bring the duck."
{{quote|
* In one [[The Simpsons]] comic book, Homer is seen slamming into Skinner's office when Bart's in trouble, saying "Too angry to finish sentence I-!"
* A darker version occurs in the post-[[Infinite Crisis|One Year Later]] ''[[Superman]]'' story arc, "Up, Up and Away". Big Blue has just destroyed [[Lex Luthor]]'s latest scheme and, powerless, miles above Metropolis, the two are sent plummeting to the ground. Despite giving an [[Motive Rant|impressive speech]] moments beforehand, as they fall Luthor can only stare at Supes and growl:

* The DM in ''[[Knights of the Dinner Table]]'' will, when exasperated at the unorthodox behavior of his players, frequently be reduced to shouting "FIRK DING BLAST!"

* In one issue of ''[[The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers]]'', Phineas is pursued by the [[Overprotective Dad]] of a girl he slept with, and notes that the man "appears to be too enraged to speak articulately."

== Film ==
* Rocco's reaction to the Copley Plaza Massacre in ''[[The Boondock Saints]]'' has this trope written all over it. It has the added component of a [[Cluster F-Bomb]] for added entertainment value.
{{quote|
'''Connor''': Well, that certainly illustrates the diversity of the word. }}
* Seriously performed in the movie version of ''[[The Shining]]'' to chilling effect. [[Ax Crazy]] Jack Torrance is stalking after his son Danny; when he hears the snowmobile driving away, thus notifying him that Danny escaped him, he is reduced to bellowing like a wounded animal shortly before freezing to death.
* Samir in ''[[Office Space]]''.
{{quote|
* In ''[[The 40-Year-Old Virgin]]'', Andy walks in on a fight between his love interest Trish and her daughter Marla, who delivers the most perfect teenaged girl
{{quote|'''Trish''': ... I-I didn't hear anything after "liar"! [''to Andy''] What did she say after "liar"?
'''Andy''': [''in awe''] She sounds like a tea kettle.|FUCK!! YOU!!}}
* ''[[Bon Cop, Bad Cop]]'': ''"Shit de fuck de shit de merde de shit de calice de TABARNAK!"''
Line 73 ⟶ 72:
* In ''[[Kids in The Hall]]'': ''Brain Candy'', Dr. Cooper is horrified at the side-effects of his new drug and goes on a sputtering rant that veers into random directions, such as late fees for his rental of ''[[Rear Window]]''.
* ''[[A Fish Called Wanda]]'': Otto's been called stupid one too many times, and can't exactly find a coherent insult, so he just rattles off a bunch of trite swears.
{{quote|
'''Archie''': How very interesting. You're a true vulgarian, aren't you?
'''Otto''': ''You're'' the vulgarian, you fuck. }}
* ''[[Robin Hood: Men in Tights]]'' features the Sheriff of Rottingham, who upon getting very upset, minces his intended sentence into something truly unintelligible.
{{quote|
OVER! THAT! BOY! HAND! }}
* In the old Tracy and Hepburn vehicle ''Adam's Rib'' Spencer Tracy's "Adam" tends to invert the pronunciation of words when he is flustered or upset.
Line 83 ⟶ 82:
* ''[[Last Action Hero]]''. [[Da Chief|Slater's boss]] kinda becomes a [[Running Gag]] throughout the movie for regressing into this trope. Finally, after Slater blows up more of the city than usual, he becomes so incoherent the only distinguishable words are [[Turn in Your Badge]].
* In ''[[The Room]]'', after Johnny is dumped by Lisa.

** Interesting to note that this is more-or-less the way he talks all the time.
* In ''[[A Knight's Tale]]'', Wat delivers the following warning to Geoffrey Chaucer, getting more and more angry, redfaced, and incomprehendable as he goes: "Betray us, and I will fong you, until your insides are out, your outsides are in... your entrails... will become your extrails... I... will w... rip... all the p... ung... Pain! Lots of pain!"

** Note that this is a [[Throw It In]] moment. Madeline Kahn forgot her line and ad-libbed the whole thing.
* In ''[[What About Bob?]]'', Dr. Leo Marvin rudely removes his newest patient (and biggest fan) from his automobile, but is far too angry to form proper words. He tries to say, "Get out of the car!" but it comes out [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nWycdXHmPk rather incoherently.]
* In ''[[Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy]]'', Ron Burgundy is so upset after his dog, Baxter, is punted off a bridge that he calls a fellow newsman, hysterical. Who replies, "I didn't understand one word you said."
{{quote|
* Gallo getting locked in a pod "for his own safety" in ''[[Pandorum]]'' unleashes some pretty vicious syllables at Payton that don't seem to correspond to any human language except that used by Yosemite Sam in a frothing rage.
* ''[[In the Loop]],'' following the crisis in the Meditation Room, Malcolm Tucker loses his temper in such a way that he is briefly reduced to partial incoherency. In the middle of one of his legendary threats, no less.
{{quote|
* Lucia (Lisa Kudrow) in ''[[The Opposite of Sex]]'' is one of the most articulate characters in the movie, but when her frustration occasionally gets the best of her, her speech devolves into a string of spat-out obscenities and monosyllables: "Fine! Goddammit! God! Fuck! Shit!"

* Eddie from ''Deadfall'' seems to have this trait, although some of it might just be because it's hard to understand [[Nicolas Cage]] through [[Chewing the Scenery|a mouth full of scenery]]. At any rate, one of his lines amounts to "Ararararara asshole!"
