The inability to communicate one complete sentence of thought, without a stutter, an ‘uh’, a ‘like’, a ‘you know’, an ‘oh man’, an ‘omigawd’, a ‘see’, a ‘you dig’, or any kind of folk-loric interjections, is near an epidemic proportion, to the long-held idea of clear and concise communications between humans.

As an old codger who gets on sports forums to discuss events with what appears to me to be a much younger set of posters, I now believe dude has replaced he as a third-person, singular pronoun. As in "dude can really handle the ball" "dude played great last night" "dude was not responsible for his team losing" "dude is trash" and a lot other phrases.

Like, totally! Or not.

Whenever I hear someone say “totally awesome,” I question them. “Are you sure it’s not just partially awesome?”
