I blame Shaggy from Scooby-Doo for the "like" thing. I watched that show a lot when I was in elementary school - and Shaggy would always end up saying "like" numerous times. (for example: "like, zoinks!")  Then I picked up that bad habit and started saying "like..." way too often.

Oh and that song...

The irritating word and phrase catalogue is totally immense. Don't go there, man - we need closure.

As your resident teen on this board, which makes me an expert. I do not use the six words mentioned:   random, sweet, intense, essentially, ultimately, technically  

  I have a beef thou, who can essentially, ultimately and technically be hip words?

If I use the word sweet I'm always mimicking Napolean Dynamite.

I use odd instead of random

  But I'm the exception, I use a lot of british slang. I do not get the cali talk either. Those people give me a headache.

I really hate hearing "you know" several times in a sentence.  I know one person that uses this phrase incessantly, and I tend to go out of my way to avoid her when possible.  It's like putting "filler" between the words so nobody can interrupt.

I really hate hearing people using "like", "basically", and bullshit buzzwords like "proactive". And I really don't like sentences that end with "all" or using "all" as a verb. As is "I was all..."
But I really really hate when I catch myself saying any of the above! I'm all...

...religion has made some contributions to civilization. It helped in the early days to fix the calendar, and it caused Egyptian priests to chronicle ecplipses with such care that in time they were able to predict them. These two services I am prepared to acknowledge, but I do not know of any others

P.C.

'infrastructure' is starting to bother me.  I suppose because I've been hearing it lately, from people who like to use it because it's such a great word....not because it's relevent to the conversation.
Sir Isaac Newton invented the swinging door....for the convenience of his cat.
