I had that conversation with my son about ten years ago. I just asked him to listen for it himself. About a year later, he said I was right. He’s 26 now.

I’m currently trying to break my students of ending every sentence with a high inflection of voice.

Frequent "like" was really made popular by Gen X.

If you start using "like" three times in every sentence you speak to her she will stop.

Hailey Van Lith went thru a period of overusing “like” prior to her one season at LSU.

It was, like, almost unbearable to listen to. Like, she said it, like, a thousand times in a 10 minute interview (starting, like, around the 11 min mark). I was, like, when did she start doing this? She didn’t, like, do that in older HS interviews (shown, like, in the first 5 mins of the video) before attending Louisville:

Most do, I correct her immediately when she does it. Makes them actively think about what they are saying

I dated a an LSU DG back in the day, she used "like" all the time while talking... She was telling me some story, I wasn't listening, just counting her likes... When she was finished, I told her she said Like 36 times in her story, she wasn't very happy with me...
