'Forever home' 'Influencer'
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 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.
