Was down at the cafe to catch up with my closest mates today, not seen in a month or so. He tells me his Dad's back in hospital, been there all week (so not good), then he tells me the doctors have told him that he's got maximum of a week left to live.
To close this out, he died on Boxing Day with his entire family by his side. Far too young @ 61, but it could have happened in worse circumstances.

Damn man. Thoughts, prayers, vibrations, and condolences to the senior snowman and family.

The other version of it that I dislike is sentences that start with "to be honest xxxx".
RockN, you may have noticed the MS advertising campaign on bus shelters in the CBD. They start with "Honestly". Adding the word as apposed to just saying whatever creates doubt in my mind. The fact it's advertising for Windows Metro/Surface junk, it's a scam, so stays true to my theory.

well to be honest, i say it when i am trying to be honest as oppsed to my 99.5% of the time bullsh!ting & trolling. . . but I'm just saying it's sometimes akin to people who say like or that, like every 3 words when you are talking. like that is just like annoying to have so many words in a language & that you like use only 4 of them to get like that pointlessness across.

A girl who, like, sits, like, near me at work, like, does that, like, all day. Just get to the fucking point!

I won't claim not to have fallen into such traps, but pointless turns of phrase such as these are vapid verbal dreck. In speech, you can say "er", "um" or "ahh" if your brain falls behind your mouth, and in written text there's especially no need for them. This happens with "you know" and "you know what I'm saying?" Too. Unless you are really asserting that I know something or asking me if I understand you, these phrases add nothing to the conversation. I'm all for florid, poetic speech, but repetitious empty phrases I can do without.
Like, you know what I'm saying? To be honest, I'm just sayin…
