[[File:
A character in a comic talks, on and on and on, but the exact content's not important. Or else no one is listening.
Their blathering is given in a [[Wall of Text]]
Enough words are usually shown to get the gist of what the character is expressing, although [[Blah Blah Blah]] is also common.
[[Long Speech Tea Time]] can have actions that obstruct the bubbles.
