They use the same words over and over. The word “like” and “basically” are used so many times in the course of a 60 second conversation that it seems that’s all they are saying.

Yes, those are some heavy verbal crutches!

The words “like” and “ya know” have been used as filler speech by young people since I was a teen and I am 68. The difference is parents and teachers used to correct it. Not so much now.
