LIKE

"What word makes you cringe? Like. I think there should be little electric-shock things put in people's bodies, and every time they say it inappropriately, they get electrocuted"

(Rufus Wainwright, Jane July 2007)

More than half of the girls (and come to think of it, guys too) doing BCS is guilty of saying 'like'.

'Like' is peppered throughout their conversations, as if the word somehow connects sentences.

Like I went to OZ to ski.

Like I don't wanna go to like the concert and like..

I like, said to him, like hey..

Rufus' idea doesn't sound too bad. Especially when you're in the lift having to listen to a group of wannabes and their 'likes'.

MEOW!
