Dear Readers: A pet peeves of mine is when people stick like useless words into their speech. Didn’t they like pass English class in high school? It’s as though they don’t like think they have enough to say without throwing in extra words. Like, why would they believe that?
It’s distracting to hear all those like worthless words tossed in willy nilly. Some people like put two or more of those useless words in like one sentence. This is especially true for like compound sentences, because people like put one of the useless words in the first clause and like another one or two in the second. Maybe someone who like likes to do this will like think back to how ridiculous this sounds and omit useless, distracting words like like.
