OTB still using the "you're listening to the odd couple of Scottish football" on episodes which don't have both Cosgrove & Cowan (made worse when it's being said by the stand-in).

Like, since my daughter, like, started high school, like , this year, she's, like, started acting as if, like, it's a sponsored event, like, to have as many likes in her sentences as, like, possible. Like.

I feel your pain. Our daughter started with this ear assault at the same age. She's now 24 and still speaks this way.

It's as if the word 'said' has been dropped from the language.

"So she was like, 'Are you going out tonight?' and I was like, 'Yes, I'm meeting my friends,' and she was like, 'Oh, can I come?'"

I remember pointing this folly out to an English teacher in a previous school I worked in when she wrote it in an email. She absolutely 100% believed that she was right. Stunning.

Funnily enough, there is.
Not because she's emigrated to NZ though.
No, she's lived in Glasgow for the last 5 years, where she's picked up this vile habit.

And yet Barnton and Corstorphine are among the more affluent areas of Edinburgh. You'd think they'd have gone to decent schools.
