OK, so I do that all the time.
Sorry.
I DO do that all the time. And I'm reasonably literate, somewhat intelligent and even college-educated.
So, no it doesn't bug me.
It bugs me, however, when people constantly END their sentences with, "so ... ."
I mean, So? So what? I knew a girl who ended every sentence she ever uttered like that and it really grated on my nerves after a while.

If you are looking for old-fashioned English usage, then you would certainly not like indiscriminate use of the words OK, LOL, LIKE, SO, YEAH and a host of others such as IDK, and lots of emoticons! These are the product of an evolving society used to modern appliances and shortage of time.
Yes, I do find it annoying, but I suppose every one has to make a conscious effort to avoid using these words in excess. Otherwise they become mere appendages without any meaning.

For me, it grates a little less than the endless stream of "like" inserted in the person's utterance. I teach, and I've counted as many as 20 "likes" in four sentences from students.
It's like so like annoying. Like it's like a handicap.

It depends on how the person say it but I think it isn't nice to hear that.
