broken record

One who continually repeats the same statement with little variation, if any.

Derives directly from the (slightly inaccurate) term involving polyvinyl record albums, where such a "broken" record would repeatedly skip back a moment in what being played. (The term was inaccurate - usually such skippage was caused by debris on the disc.)
Hey, Bob is being a broken record about the salad bar. Somebody wanna hit him?

like a broken record 

someone who keeps repeating themselves over and over again to the great annoyance of others
Anton, who doesn't know shit from shanola about training dogs, kept insisting to Jenny, over and over again, that according to a German dog training manual the best ways to train a dog is to hit them. Anton just won't shut up. Jenny, greatly annoyed, has told him he sounds like a broken record and she has no intention of disciplining her dog Lucky by hitting her. Anton is so obnoxious that Jenny is now considering trying out the German discipline method on Anton. Hopefully Anton will read this definition about what 'a broken record' means and shut up forever on this matter.

A second example:

Jenny never wants to hear Mariana's name again. Jenny is disgusted by how Anton and Mariana have treated others. Jenny never wants to hear of Mariana and never wants to see Mariana again. Even though Jenny has repeatedly asked Anton to never mention Mariana's again or talk about her in any way, however, Anton, just like a broken record, keeps bringing Mariana's name up over and over again. Anton doesn't seem to understand that Jenny is very mad that he keeps doing this although she has repeatedly asked him to stop. Anton is rather immature and doesn't seem to understand that the consequences of continually trying to tick off Jenny will mean that Jenny will stop liking Anton and will kick him out of her house and life forever.

city chicken
