This individual might keep repeating the same information, requests, or grievances, overwhelming the listener with their unrelenting persistence. The phrase conveys the idea of enduring a persistent annoyance, as a bug's buzzing can become frustrating and difficult to ignore. It implies a feeling of irritation, frustration, and mental exhaustion caused by the continuous stream of words or demands from the other person.
