yes thanks Shawnz for explaining the aliases, its so true.
but I also like the on event commands.

On *:text:*:*: if ($1 == blah) msg # $nick Don't be stupid.

basically that says:
on any text, in any channel. if the first word ($1) equals 'blah' than message the channel 'nickname who said 'blah'' $nick Don't be stupid.
of course if you want to be specific you could state:

on *:text:blah:*: msg # $nick Don't be stupid.

etc etc.

Format:    on <level>:TEXT:<matchtext>:<*><?><#[,#]>:<commands>
Example:    on 1:TEXT:*help*:#mirc,#irchelp:/msg $nick what's the problem?

The match text can be a wildcard string, where:
  *    matches any text
  &    matches any word
  text    matches if text contains only this word
  text*    matches if text starts with this word
  *text    matches if text ends with this word
  *text*    matches if text contains this word anywhere

The location where this event occurrs can be specified using:
  ?    for any private message
  #    for any channel message
  #mirc    for any messages on channel #mirc
  *    for any private or channel messages
