* Defunct pro-wrestling parody site ''Brawlers on a Budget'' had Dr. Thrilla, who has replaced his teeth with a beartrap. His lines are written as "(metal clanging)", sometimes with an emotion tagged on. His manager, a "weedy Englishman" (as he's always described) named Cecil, is able to translate for him.

See also SpeakingSimlish, where non-playable video game characters speak nonsense, and ElectiveUnintelligible, where a character can speak normally, but chooses to speak nonsensically. StarfishLanguage is a related trope, where the character is unintelligible because they're not even using ''words.'' Not to be confused with TheIllegible, which is when a character has outrageously horrible handwriting. Sometimes The Unintelligible has a friend who acts as his TranslatorBuddy. When caused by their accent, then it's an UnintelligibleAccent. Also not to be confused with TheUnpronounceable, where a name is very difficult to pronounce.
