This is when a character launches into [[Cluster F-Bomb|a profane tirade]] for several seconds, which is [[Sound Effect Bleep|bleeped out]] for comedic effect. It's sort of the intersection between [[The Aristocrats]] and a [[Noodle Incident]]: the humor comes from how incredibly long-winded and offensive the dialog was, but we're left with only other characters' reactions to inform us about what was actually said.
Line 20:
* This can happen unintentionally when a particularly profane movie is [[Edited for Syndication]]. Some cable broadcasts of, ''[[Pulp Fiction]]'', for example, will blank out the individual words. In one scene, the F's are flying so fast that ''all'' the sound simply blanks out, as if the censor had just given up in exasperation.
* Occurs in-universe in ''[[Happy Gilmore]]'' as Happy's [[Cluster F-Bomb]] is broadcast on TV.

* Used twice in rapid succession by Buster on ''[[Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'': once when trash-talking Michael before a bike ride ("Well let's hope it doesn't come to that"), and when dissing his own mother ("I don't think anybody's going to top that").
* Used in the fake behind-the-scenes clips of "Wormhole X-Treme" on the episode "200" of ''[[Stargate SG

* Richard Hammond of ''[[Top Gear]]'' loves this.
Line 40:
* This happens a lot with particularly profane comedians' TV specials, which usually doesn't affect the joke but sometimes makes the joke sound dirtier than it is (censoring shit for example) or not dirty enough.
* This occurs in the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyS3WcY_MnY legendary] ''[[Intervention]]'' episode involving Linda, the Fentanyl addict.
* Happens in an episode of ''[[
* In one episode of ''[[Sabrina the Teenage Witch (TV series)|Sabrina the Teenage Witch]]'', Sabrina, her aunts, Mr. Kraft, and Mr. Kraft's ex-girlfriend [[It Makes Sense in Context|all end up on]] [[Jerry Springer]]. During this, Aunt Hilda gives the ex a piece of her mind. Her rant is bleeped out every other word. Sabrina points out that Hilda wasn't swearing, and Jerry just shrugs and says "Yeah, but this way, it ''sounds'' like she did."
* [[Myth Busters]] has fun with this one when testing whether swearing helps in enduring pain. They use the bleeps to spell out messages in morse code.
* Since profanity isn't easy to translate, the german dub for ''[[That 70s Show]]'' bleeps out almost everything of Red's [[Cluster F-Bomb]] when he takes Hyde in after his mother left him. While profanity usually is never censored in German TV, this arguably makes the scene even more hilarious (and definitly better than an akward translation).

* The Elder Swear, the worst wizard swear word ever, is said this way in ''[[Potter Puppet Pals]]''. The only words not bleeped out are extremely non-sequitur.
* ''[[Dragon Ball Abridged]]'' [[Parodied Trope|parodied this]] when you heard Vegeta saying a bunch of bleep words, and then you heard what he actually said, which was a cluster [[Gosh Dang It to Heck]] bomb.
