Anything is better than someone who inserts "like" after every 3rd word,
often followed either by "totally" or "awesome". Or both.


Or that utterance that seems to be a favourite with the type of people who
could audition for an appearance on the Jeremy Kyle show.
“Know what I mean” , Yes it means you are thick , now **** off.


Very true, however in Kyle land saying a whole 4 words in a row makes you
an intellectual. Far better one should end (and often begin) sentences with
"init" in order not to confuse ones peers.

Somehow I suspect the spelling is flexible.

The Oxford English Dictionary admits no alternatives to "innit", but
then it has standards even for such nonstandard words.

So why do people insist on starting sentences with the word 'so'?


So what if they do?


So predictable.
