I’m not liking the like
Why is it that so many, like, people these days seem to need to, like, use the word “like” all the time when they, like, talk? It, like, drives me, like, nuts! And if I hear someone how overuses “like” (or “right”, or “y’know” or any other sentence padding flummery) and uses that damned rising inflection at the end of every sentence, then I want to stick knives in their neck.
Am I just getting old?
