I've noticed that I say the word "like" a lot...
And when I present stuff and i'm nervous, I say it a lot..
and i never notice when I say it, either.. in conversation....

Do you say the word "like" a lot??

When I have to use it as an example. "Like this for example" but I don't say Like when it's presenting something.

i say like a lot.
Like <-- oh there I go
I use it, not in a 'preppy' way but I say like when I go "that's totally gorgeous! like i know i have it, but it's totally gorgeous!"
I could say the sentence without like, though.
So.. yah.. i dont use it a lot, I guess.

I don't use the word 'like' a lot. Once in a while, yes, but not a lot. But I do say 'shut up' a lot.

I actually don't use it that much. I think I say it more on the internet then I do in real life. If i do, then I don't notice it.

yea, my language arts teacher makes us write down our names everytime we say the word "like" he doesn't like the word "like" it's kinda funny

this one girl was presenting her book report and he made her write down all the times she said it, she had over 15 lol

yeah i say "like" alot. my cousins from back east said i had the "californian" accent. they couldve been just kidding. but in a awya it does seem kinda true. in the south they do have that drawl. so it would sound reasonable for californians to have that way of speaking.

oh yeah! i say it like 10 million times a day.

in my city, on a local radio station, they used to have a game where you would call in, they would give you something to talk about, and if you didn't say "LIKE" or "UMMMM" at all, they would give you $1000! only 3 people won! and the game went on for a month. tongue.gif
