:hehe:
Yes, yes I do :awesome:

How could you forget "dude"? :lay:

I also say "totally" way too much where it's not needed, as in "that totally looks awesome" :hehe:

The "like" problem was pretty bad when I was younger, but I worked on it. I am not bothered by the rest, I don't use them in professional or formal conversation :pardon:

:hehe: I do say 'totally' too frequently but I've never said 'dude' or 'awesome.' I probably overemphasise 'cool', though.
