[Rimrook]

Brought weed, grog, and non-weak mini bongs.

[ikaican]

I heard the universal greeting in a song! search to da fullest dim dudez and its at the end of the first verse!!! it sounds dope how he used it!

[julzzville21]

Hahaha!!!... I laughed so hard when I heard Ironhide said the Universal Greeting in Transformers: War for Cybertron.... XD Nostalgia caught up to me that day... XD

[Tiwaking]

Bah-weep-Graaaaagnah wheep mini bong!!!!

[doublefantasycsaszar]

[MikeD3691]

Bah Weep Grahnah Weep Nini Bong/my grandma wears a cheap threaded mini thong

[cooldude6385]

Bah Weep Grahnah A Weep Ninni Bong

[JEFFERoW2]

Bah Weep Graaagnah Wheep Ni Ni Bong = your grandma wears a mini thong

[Habbadax]

I think it means:

"We come in peace, let's hit the bong"

[nyasham1]

I said this to a girl then handed her a condom.

Not sure why it didn't work :-(

[DeltaFoX129]

@nyasham1 Wait what would a girl need a condom for?

That's where you went wrong

[Ardwynna]

@DeltaFoX129 You know girls often keep their own condoms in case the guy "doesn't have one", right?

[kintaro06]

I'm gonna speak the universal greeting when I go to the movies to see DOTM, see how many people think I'm crazy.

[jle717]

60% of the time it works every time

[briant420]

This is the real shit.  Fuck Michael Bay in the ear.

[MikeD3691]

@briant420 wow

thats sounds either realy good or completely catastrophic

[roguelead72]

Think I'll use this on the next bill collector that calls for me. Bet it'll be as classic as when I answered the phone in German and they asked if I needed a Spanish translator.

[pawel1818]

me grimlock universal greeting my ass me bash brains

[riversj45202]

Randomly said this to my wife lol hahaha classic

[VickyWazHere100]

It's Kup not cup!

[OptimusPrimePrincess]

Bah-wheep Graaaaagnah wheep ni ni bong!!! :DD

[amartinez97]

who thinks the universal greeting sounds like modem noises?

[digiwriter1392]

Very funny!

[LordAmbitious]

This is used in the new War for Cybertron Game

[Garrettheparrot]

@LordAmbitious

I laughed quite heartily when I heard the greeting.

[LordAmbitious]

@Garrettheparrot it was awesome! I just stood there and laughed, and had this huge smile the rest of the level.

come to think of it, I had this huge smile the whole game, especially when Optimus Spoke.

Autobots, Transform and Roll Out!

[Suthek]

@LordAmbitious "I don't think it worked."

[dinoanimal15]

@LordAmbitious i heard that to im like fucken awesome

[Masteroftheweb]

Bah-weep-granna-weep-nini-bohn­

[epa316]

I tried that on a group of liberals.. they joined hands and sang "we shall overcome.." I'm still not sure who won that one.

[Strand0410]

@epa316 Because you must always bring politics into a goddamn thread about Transformers eh? What the hell is wrong with people. Sometimes I just wonder why conservatives are always cruising around aggressively annoying people.

[epa316]

@Strand0410 See what I mean? Liberals.. they're strange little creatures. We should study them and see what makes them tick.

[Strand0410]

@epa316 Strange is one thing, but it takes a special kind to just troll comments sections with flame bait. And here we were supposedly just enjoying a Transformers clip.

[epa316]

@Strand0410 Here we see the liberal howler monkey attempting to communicate by screetching and flinging its own feces. Fascinating behavior.

[OptimusPrimeFangirl]

I LOVE THAT! the first time i heard it i thought that i had missheard it. so i listened to it again and started to laugh my head off at it. its so genius but stupid at the same time!

[amartinez97]

In a full sentence

[amartinez97]

What would "bah weep graaanah wheep ni ni bong" mean in english?

[skydude38]

It would probaly mean:Don't rape me,I come in peace!

[asakaolol]

lol you "retard" sorry but i cant express what i want to say in a different way :d

[Dracoa79]

Best (and only). Universal. Greeting. EVER!

[Trikeen3d]

ba weep gra nah weep ninny bong.

[Marlfox70]

So this is where Illidan got that...

[Nielsification]

Illidan got what? bah weep grana weep ninni bong??

[Marlfox70]

Ya on warcraft 3 if you click illidan enough time's when you get to play as him he'll say "Bah Weep Grana Weep ninny bong. It's a universal greeting!"

[Nielsification]

@Marlfox70 really? if that's true, it's really fucking badass ^^

would've been cooler if he said that in the world of warcraft as we know it now :P

[Marlfox70]

Ya it's true lol has to be the Illidan character itself not the generic demon hunter. You get to play him towards the end of the night elves campaign in the Warcraft 3 expansion The Frozen Throne. Idk If I woulda liked him saying it on WoW though they already didn't make him seem like that much of a threat (He's more threatening than Arthas atm though Arthas keeps running away from you after setting some crazy minion :P Illidan didn't show up during quests except for 1 brief time.)

[JediAutobotX]

AWESOME GREETING! :D

[goremister54321]

Look it up. It's "Bah Weep Graaaaagnah wheep ni ni bong"

[UraharaKiaske]

BAH WEEP GRAGNAH WHEEP NINI BONG!!

Lol, nostalgia...

[CubsFans0]

Bah Weep Granna Weep Nini Bong

[Melodyotakuchan21]

Greetings, I come in peace. Or something of the like.

[PharaohYami2]

^_^ I came up this one idea that a creactor character I made up, who is Prowl's father, taught Kup the greeting first cause Prowl's father was not only a good tacticion, but a translator as well.

[allmydeadcats]

Now give me an energon goodie.

[allmydeadcats]

Official spelling (according to the script):

"Bah Weep Graaagnah Wheep Ni Ni Bong".

The "grAAAgnah" really is how it's spelled.

BAH WEEP GRAAAGNAH WHEEP NI NI BONG! And, in response to Hohnoroa, I suppose that it could translate to something fairly long, like "It is in my greatest honour to be acquainted wih you, good sir and/or madame". Then again, it's really just gibberish. BUT WHO CARES. DOES ANYBODY WANT TO MAKE A LANGUAGE FROM THIS? I do. Like what I did with Simlish, but with less words.

[Zoras88]

@allmydeadcats it may sound like gibberish, but it sounds polite,

[BurningdiverUK]

Baa weep grahna weep ninny bong, best quote ever!

[idol2000]

Bah weep grana weep nini bong

[vuumbleman]

Check out the Transformers Animated episode "Garbage In, Garbage Out." They include that greeting. When I first saw it I thought "Oh my gosh! That's great!" XD

[KizulEmeraldfire]

Ba weep grana weep nini bong! :D

[SAMASzero]

Bah weep grana weep nini bong!

[Prankmeister1990]

BAH WEEP GRANA WEEP NINI BONG!!

[lawrencealcantara620]

Bah weep grana weep nini bong!!!!!!!

[MosaEater]

Bah weep grana weep nini bong! LOL I've always thought that was so stupid. I'd love to hear it in the Japanese version of the movie xD

[Stevaloo5]

it be like 'xhlsahflzk dfzk dkghla fkxhruhl" (i just typed random stuff ;P) no offense japanese peepl out there!i dont know japanese

[artsyrezuri]

"Ba weepu gurana weepu neenee bongu" probably.

[iynque]

REMEMBER?! NEVER forget!

[MetaKnight0]

I love the universal greeting.

[Triumph101]

what the heck does that mean?

[toxyc0slime]

it the greetin transformers use it maens hello

[Triumph101]

it sounds long to be a hello

[Hohnoroa]

"I" in Japanese is "watashi" or "ore" or "boku" or "atashi," depending on your status, who you're talking to, and how you want to sound. There's also a whole other set of verbs for whether you're using polite, casual, passive, the tenses, and nouns and adjectives shift dramatically according to usage as well.

I can accept that "bah weep grana weep nini bong" is "hello."

[asceticwolf]

I think it means like "Hey, Whats Up?"

[kageromaru]

so what does that have t odo with the greeting? :P

[Hohnoroa]

I was saying that I've encountered ridiculously complicated languages before, so learning that this long string of nonsense has to be remembered as "hello" is a nonissue.

It was also a response to "It sounds long to be a hello."

:P

[sjd83]

It could also be sharkticon language for "please spare my life! take the boy instead!"

[Onefromthedarkness]

i agree.

[magderagon]

"If you let me live, there will be cake"

[neoparshath]

The cake is a lie!"

[TheThenThis]

That is sooo funny. lol

Classic movie! :-D

[daftmelody]

Oh man I remember this!!
