Signings On The Way

 


I'm a blind man, i'm a blind man, now my room is cold,
When a blind man cries, Lord, he feels it from his soul.

Like.. saying like all of the like time.

Using like for:

‘I was like, and she was like, and then I was like’

use of like has found its way into the vocabulary of some intelligent people now. It’s bloody lazy but I can see why people use this one to explain and describe a scene or exchange quickly, without having to use, find or even have the vocabulary needed. But if I find myself doing it I’ll have to remind myself to just substitute it with ‘he/she said’, which doesn’t take much longer.

When I read young people type ‘for like <insert time period>’ I ‘like, literally, like’ cringe. Since when was the word ‘about’ so difficult to use or call upon? Oh it’s because muppets are using like for about 20% of words used I suppose it will be used instead of another perfectly fine and quick word.

Can't wait
It is what it is
Does what it says on the tin

Anyone who says anything whilst filming themselves for TV/internet broadcast.

I used to have a friend who inserted 'like' several times into every sentence in an inappropriate way.
I don't like him any more (which , ironically, is the proper way to use the word).
