What word or phrase do you feel you tend to overuse?

Question

In talking I tend to say the word "basically" too often. I also say "pretty much" a lot. What words or phrases do you pepper your speech with?

Answer 1

I use "whatever" a lot, even though I would not usually use it in a sentence. Either that, or "ok", since my husband will ask how I slept, or what I did, I respond, "ok." or "whatever"....lol

It kind of brings us closer, just the coin phrases we use between each other that we know what each other means.

My coworkers used to use a sound like "eh" when disturbance was in the air. So how are you....."eh" she would respond, something like that., but it was catchy, we all started doing that.

Answer 2

I think I say "so to speak" a whole lot. Also, I think I say "you know" almost with every sentence. I think we get used to saying things when we're in an uncomfortable situation or when we're not really listening or paying attention. Well, at least for me :)
