No I dont use them at all, and I also cringe at the ones that have to say " Really Really" they only need one really. Then also the those that do
its, " like and like", WHY ! I think they are some of the ones that Judd was talking about in his earlier post .

Being a pedantic bore is no excuse for ill manners.
My husband and children are all as well mannered as they are well spoken.
Unlike yourself who is sadly lacking in the manners department.
To judge someone on the way they speak is small minded snobbery.
A man is what he does not how he speaks.

Certainly not me, Muddy.

In fact, this is precisely why I love animals.

They don't constantly find fault with us.

They don't look down on the uneducated.

They don't constantly find fault.

They accept us, warts and all.

They'd still love us if we had two heads!

They ask for so little.

So much more genuine than a lot of humans.
