Horshack says, "they'a lazy and the grasp of their native tongue is weak. It's because they didn't have teachahs like Mr. Ko-tter who tawt them to think right.
“...say ‘yaknow’ ...”
I USED to say ‘you know’ when I was young. Didn’t even realize it...
One day, a family friend (Of the parents family - I had never met him before but he was the son of a trusted friend of my mothers’ from NYC and five years older) listend to me say ‘you know’ one too many times... he got in my face and said: “ I KNOW!”
After he said it five times I realized what I — did not realize — I was saying.
There could be hope for this generation, there was for me.
