Why, it has been preached ad nauseam for centuries!" "By the Christian Church, I suppose you mean. And pray how have they practised their preaching?" "Oh, but excuse me; that is not the question. If your religion is as brand-new as you gave me to understand, there has been no time for practice. It must be all theory, and I hoped I was going to hear something original."
Mary, Queen of Scots, has her Meline; why should not Sand boast of at least one apologist for her life besides herself? I do not say this with cynical intent. Nor do I propose to discuss the details of the affair which has been dwelt upon ad nauseam by every twanger of the romantic string.
And here the same cuckoo-note is repeated usque ad nauseam. We are told, that, to look upon her, "we should ween Some Angel she had been." "Sing, ye sweet Angels, Alleluya sing!" Finally, in "Colin Clout's come home again," the poet very dexterously evades the royal anger of Elizabeth, sure to be aroused by the preference of any beauty to her own.
Those who know you will not impute this to you. But you must remember that our Committee Room is public to a great extent, and I cannot omit expressions as I go reading on. Pious sentiments may be thrust into letters ad nauseam, and it is not for that I plead; but is there not a via media?

Mr. is writing a charade, in which I have agreed to take a part, to prevent squabbling. He wanted to start a daily paper, but the captain wisely forbade it, as it must have led to personalities and quarrels, and suggested a play instead.
This reminds me to tell you that in the Berlin Museum, which the King of Prussia is now finishing in high style, I saw what is said to be the most complete Egyptian collection in the world; a whole Egyptian temple, word for word pillars, paintings, and all; numberless sarcophagi, and mummies ad nauseam!

In this, the type resembles the primary bodies or other systems of classification, such as the Philistines, the Conservatives, the Bores and so on, ad nauseam.
