This is something I tend to notice.  The president of a company I used to work used to say "and uhhhhh" all the time.  Once during a 45 minute speech, he said "and uhhhhh" 140 times.  I marked it down every time he said it.

"ummm" "uhhh"  "ahhhh" "and ahhhh" "but ummm"  "you know"  those fucking filler words are all annoying as fuck to hear over and over and over.  It's like the morons that use them can't think more than five words ahead at a time and have to buy their pea brains some time to form the next five. Just use a fucking silent pause.
Obama is one of the worst offenders. If he doesn't have that fucking teleprompter telling him what to say he's unwatchable with the constant "uhhhs"

Jerry Jones says it practically every other word and he's a multi billionaire.



I was semi trolling with that one.

What I can't stand is females that say "like" several times in one sentence.


..."so I was like 'no way'. And he was like "yeah". Then I was like "no". Then he was totally like... he was like 'yeah way' ".
