I don’t know what phrase I use most. Like, how am I supposed to know? Who expects me to know that? I don’t even know how to measure, like, how much I use one word compared to, like, another? I could, like, count it. But that’s, like, a lot of work. Probably, like, more work than I want to do. Most of the time when you say something, like, a lot, you start to not even, like, recognize how much you say it. So how am I supposed to know if I, like, say a word a lot? I can’t know. I could kind of know, if I thought about it. But again that’s, like, too much work. I mean, I could, like, think about it. I feel like I definitely say “kind of” a lot. And I guess some people say that I say “like” a lot, but I don’t think so. Like, probably only kind of a little bit. Wait, I think I’m starting to realize what they mean.
