Bah humbug, was Scrooges way of sort of poopooing something that he did not like. Sort of a yuk, or a grumble, just a way of showing dislike for something!

"Bah, humbug!" is what Scrooge said in _A Christmas Carol_. It means something along the lines of "I have no use for all this frivolity."

Bah Humbug simply means ...Go pound salt...I have no interest in what you do, say or said...
Whatever means...You spoke, I don't care to hear it...

humbug means : a sham, deception, nonsense. so 'bah humbug' what a lot of nonsense, rubbish or suchlike.'what a load of crap' would be another way of putting it politely.

It is what Scrooge said in the Charles Dickens classic, A Christmas Carol, when he didn't agree with something, or thought it was foolish.
