Default Lessons in Grammar: WAS Lee Valley optical center punch

Sun, Dec 28, 2003, 4:02pm (EST+5) (Rob=A0Lee)
snip
"I was like..."
"He was like...."
"She was like...."
"They were like...."
"We were like..." snip

Now add "like" to the beginning, and end, of each.

Years ago I heard one young female, early 20s, speak thusly - every
sentence: "Like, we left, like, and, didn't come back, like, for an
hour, like." True story. My friend and I were amazed, so we timed her.
Counted the word "like", out of her mouth, 54 times in 60 seconds. We
had to laugh. Some guy was trying to put the make on her. She would
have been easy. But, he gave up after about 4 minutes. He couldn't
listen to her anymore. LMAO
