I'm with you. Valleyspeak is out of favor now but I suppose such habits are hard to break.

I have a twin sister who interjects..."You know what I mean?"...after just about every sentence that she utters...LOL

Have you ever wondered if we all probably have some "utterances" that annoy others?

Of course there are annoying things said. I don't know why people started saying before answering a question or having a reply "Well, basically" .

Folks don't pronouce words correctly either, especially news broadcasters. They say Tah day instead of today. or tempa chure instead of temperature. Valentines Day has a lot of mispronounced sounds. It's not ValenTIMES, its Valentine. Not kindy garden either

I can't stand hearing "voice fry".

Also, words that end in "th" pronounced "f". What is with that?

Ali Carr's voice reminds me of a valley girl.

@aj1980 No, you aren't the only one. It's nails on a chalkboard to me. And it sounds so childish and immature.

@aj1980 Right up there with .... "so I went NO Way and They went YA WAY.."

I REALLY don't like when someone uses AXE instead of ASK.

If I had to spend hours talking about sticks with cr@p lights (TSV), I would use a lot of filler words too!

The only expression that bothers me is the queston: I don't know where she's at? That sentence ending with at drives me up a wall. I don't say that. I always say I don't know where she is.

I will admit I sometimes catch myself saying, "I was like" or "she was like". I try not to do it because it does sound annoying to me when others say it, but sometimes it still slips out.

I am guilty of saying “ like” way too often and I hate it! Still working on breaking the habit.
