When used as a filler or substitute phrase, as is "blah, blah, blah",
"bling bling" appears in various discussion groups.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One use is cited for Dr. Feynman, in the book-- "Surely You're Joking
Mr. Feynman!": Adventures of a Curious Character.  In the quote
presented at the following URL, Dr. Feynman mentions the
"interrelationship of the theoretical bling-bling with the so-and-so. .
. ."  The following is from 24 NOV 1992.

I do not have the original edition of the book at hand, so I'm unable to
verify the reference as presented in the message at the above URL.

In one example, 'bling bling' is the subject of a test message, with no
other meaningful related commentary in the body:
