Badum-tss

Usually heard after making a bad or corny joke

Also it’s badum-tss not badum-tsh

So a man walks into a bar and says “ow”

*Badum-tss*

badum tish

It's an onomatopeia for a drum technique normally accompanying the conclusion of a cheesy joke or a comedy pratfall (where someone is made to look like an idiot by their own devising - such as falling on a banana skin they earlier discarded). It consists of two fast rimshots and a splash cymbal - producing the sound "badum tish".
