Isn't it annoying OG ...... I know several people who use 'like' every other word; is seems to be a habit they can't break

Re: The English language

Here in the States too .... they can't seem to speak a sentence without at least one "like" or a "you know". And another thing that drives me mad ... people who say ARRtic for ARCtic, and FebYOOary for FebBREWary...... aaargh!!
