I have never done anything until I was blue in the face. well, exept for eating potstickers. nom nom nom. yes it is true if you if you’re blue in the face, you can’t breathe well or you are doing something too much.

: What is the meaning of “blue in the face?” How would one use the expression?

It means for a long time, often to the point of complete exasperation, or. as the Oxford English Dictionary has it:

“b. Phr. blue (in the face): livid with effort, excitement, etc. Used hyperbolically.
1864 TROLLOPE Small House at Allington II. xvii. 175 You may talk to her till you’re both blue in the face, if you please. 1917 ‘H. H. RICHARDSON’ Fortunes R. Mahoney II. viii. 175 He alone must argue himself blue in the face over it. 1928 N. COWARD C. B. Cochran’s 1928 Revue I. v. 10 Beckon and coo Till you are blue, Mermaids have got no dam chance at all. 1934 F. BALDWIN Innoc. Byst. xi. 212 I’ve talked myself blue in the face to him. 1959 ‘P. QUENTIN’ Shadow of Guilt x. 89 Swear till you’re blue in the face that Chuck was with you all day. 1968 Observer 3 Nov. 3/3 I’ve been looking into..cases of dealers’ rings..until I’m blue in the face.”

It’s mostly used with some form of talking, especially trying to persuade someone who will not listen. “I talked myself blue in the face trying to get her to go with me.” “Listen, you can argue till you’re blue in the face, I’ll never agree with you.” 

Anyway, keep it up until you’re blue in the face – I’m listening.

:)  jeje  Then again, if my ‘true colors’ were to bare, I’d probably be seen as being a bit color blind.  So eat up, talk it up or whatever color have you, and be #00FFFF.

Hahaha To eat something until I’m blue in my face?!  Never! I don’t know any food  that can make me so crazy that I won’t be able to feel a limit.

We say about those people who eat a lot of food, they have a pit instead of stomach.:)))

Then the expression might be better served by ‘green’ – she ate until she was green-faced (sickly).  But again, I am not trying to correct anyone or to criticize – I mean to say, whatever color one might care to be is peachy with me.

Umm, actually, I think that the expression means that of having to tell someone to do something until you are blue in the face.  If you say or shout something until you are blue in the face, you are wasting your efforts because you will be talking to a wall type object or objects.  As well, one could argue a point until he or she were blue in the face.  But I guess that that is the beauty of flexibility – if one is understood, that is the point of communicating – good or bad – blue or whatever other color.  Now true, on could eat until he or she were blue in the face due to having swallowed a huge piece of a juicy, rare-cooked steak that got lodged down into the windpipe due to having argued about what was the best way to cook a steak until he or she became blue in face, coughed, choked – lodging the chunk of flesh down in to the wrong pipe – now he or she would be ‘doubly-blued’ for more reasons than one.
