"No. Absolutely. I totally agree with you."
Don't you just hate it when people use these phrases/words?
People that start sentences with "I mean…" and "Obviously…" and the word "No…" which has to begin any statement of agreement. STOP IT!
I've noticed it on TV, in the office, on the street. It really makes me cringe.
Definitely. No. Absolutely. I mean. Don't you agree?

It honestly doesn't sound like a mental health issue; it sounds like somehow your girlfriend had a new experience and loved it. Perhaps she saw a bondage film, read a suggestive piece of literature, did some research online, or even met someone with whom she had an 'experience'. I'm not trying to imply anything about your girlfriend, but you have been together for a very long time, and she might have gotten bored with your routine. Yes, perhaps you are going at it hot and heavy, but she might not be as good about communicating her desires to you as you assume she is. As another girl who has had a very hard time explaining what I want to my boyfriend, I would say that perhaps she was trying in the best way she knew to get you into her newest desire. You might be grossed out by the fact she wanted you to do something sexual that also included her ***. So what? There are girls out there who are disgusted at the idea of putting a penis in their mouth. Everyone is different--perhaps you can sit down with her, explain calmly what you did and did not like about the experience, and suggest that you try new things at a slower and more forgiving pace. Do some research on methods of anal interaction, see if there's anything you're willing to try, and be as open-minded as possible. Also, suggest that she take a nice, warm, thorough bath and clean up very, very well next time...it won't smell. Good luck to both of you. It sounds like you love her very much, so don't give up, just open up the lines of communication a little more. I'm sure you two can find a middle ground and take even more pleasure in both your sex life and how well you understand each other.

My theory...it originates from California. When I was a kid the word "like" was inserted into a spoken sentence in just about every other word. It was sort of an "80's valley-girl" language that spread around from television. "I was, like, going to the store, right?....and, like, someone, like, about ran me off the road! And I was, like, ugh...."
Phrases can be contagious, for a little while I picked up "you know what I'm saying?" from a boyfriend and I used it way too much!! After people pointed it out to me I was able to stop doing it. So if you think about it, it can be really easy to pick up the phrases from television, especially the reality tv show where you pick up regional lingo - for example, the MTV show Leguna Beach.

If I say that I totally agree with you and obviously see your point of view and that all these figures of speech are a total nightmare, would you think I am mental?
I understand what you want to saw, but some of these expressions are so part of our daily life that it is sometimes difficult and tedious to find a better and more original alternative. But you are right, we should avoid clichés (this sounds like a cliché, too!)

Yu know what i'm sayin....actually most of the time I don't have any idea what they are saying...I rant when I hear some dumb *** mumbling away and all you hear is that stupid phrase...I know I sound like and old fart, but come on, you can only know what someone is saying if you can understand it....
(rant over)

knightmare? Did the knight ride a good mare,
or was it a stud? LOL!
Anyway, many people speak like this. I just
ignore it. Why get hyper about nothing?
