I like couldn't tell you.

Like,because we like the word like.

Idk i remember i used to say it a lot in 5th and 6th grade but i don't say it much anymore.

Omg omg omg, I like totally understand what you're saying and stuff. It's like HELLO?! lol omg jk. Omg, did you see what Tiffany was wearing today? It was like soooo slutty. You could totally see her bra through her shirt. Like that impresses anyone. Whatev-, right? As if. Gawd I hate Tiffany!!!

I find that only teenage girls really overuse the word, just from my expierence;)

I don't know anyone that uses that word excessively.....LJS9502_basic

I agree. I don't hear that in any conversations.

Like,I don't know TC

Why does anybody care? Don't watch MTV if it bothers you that much.

I always thought it was mostly a southern californian thing. Is it really that widespread across the U.S.?clayron

Its every where and maybe spread "like" zombies from south california

I use it when I have to actually think about what I'm going to say.

I don't think so...i say "like" when i am tryingto liken something to something else..if that makes any sense..

I went to highschool in New Hampshire and yeah, way too many people used the word "like" in the method TC was referring to.

Hopeless -- yeah, perfect sense. you use it to compare 2 things, so do I.

For whatever reason a lot of peolple like to use it when they're unsure of what they're talking about, or just aren't effective speakers in general. My roomate had the stereotypical sorority girlfriend and I swear every time she came over our house I heard "Like" a hundred times. Not exagerating that at all...it was sad...

Like, this guy was like, 'what the f*ck??!' and I was all like, 'whaaaaaaaaaaaaat????' so he, like, walked over to this other chick and, like, made out with her and I'm all like, 'ewwwwwww'.

I dunno why but its pretty ridiculous.

God thats annoying

Have such big C***s? I don't know they just do! Oh wait.....I just read your post;)

It's become the same thing as "um" and "uh," just like "you know" has. Just a verbal interjection that has no meaning. It's not as though people are purposely saying them.Dark__Link

This

Better question. Why do they always use the phrase "Couldn't care less" incorrectly as "Could care less" Do you guys know what this implies?

Miyomatic

I agree with this. I find it annoying when people use "Like" to an extreme. Like, Totally, Like, Like, I dunno.
