Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes

1) a threat used by a bomber where they force their hostages to spill out classified information or else they get blown up
2) ironic/satirical statement for when you just want someone to shut up but they keep on blathering on about stuff you don't care about

Bank robber: *rips the duct tape off of Karen's mouth* Give me the code to the safe
Karen: *cries* I won't let you do this!!!!
Bank robber: Shut up! Now keep talking and nobody explodes!!

Me: *nods head impatiently* Oh ok
Her: oh and which reminds me I also met this other guy--
Me, seething with impatience: Yes..... Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes...... 🙃
