My friend and I were on our way home from the Spring Garden Road Library today. Two girls got on the bus and sat nearby (I think they were university students). In my humble opinion they were talking rather loud. I have tinnitus—ringing in the ears—so if I found it loud then it must have been REALLY loud to the other patrons!
And every third or fourth word out of one of them was “like.” Hey girls…if you can, like, get into university because you’re, like, intelligent enough to apply and, like, get accepted, why can’t you, like, converse in a, like, intelligent manner? FUCK, YOU TWO WERE ANNOYING! (OK, I digress, it was mostly the blonde girl. The other one was just listening. It was apparent she could not get a word in edgewise.)
Well I’m glad I got that in the open. THANK YOU LTWWB! —Like, Shut the, Like, Fuck Up!

Worst bitch of the day. DENIED!
Wow, this bitch is really annoying. It’s probably written by an equally annoying girl, most likely the same age or younger than these university students.
like you know it was totaly lame bitch, and as such, should be relegated to the hall of shame for them. but in all honesty, that just drives me to want to strangle some of these fucking bimbos. or in the least, chuck them out the fucking door. like you know, you’re not in fucking gollyfornia.
I don’t have any patience with grown-up girls who act like bimbos.
You can still be a young, fun, cool person without dumbing yourself down.
We see some of them coming in for interviews after they graduate and some of them act really, really surprised—shocked even—that they are not hired.
Gosh, girls, can’t figure that one out? Guess all that college tuition was wasted on you after all.
you would not believe the beyond foul shit i heard from the mouths of “like” seemingly nice young ladies; i swear to god if these were my daughters they would be sent to a nunnery bound and gagged; oh yea in whistler at the olym.s
Jesus Christ is there a lot of hate for these kids…
Come on, really? Who says anyone in university is grown-up Ruby? Some of the stupidest things people do are when they are in university. What about these girls saying ‘like’ a lot makes them not nice martym? I mean, It annoys the crap out of me when people use the word ‘like’ too much, but I think you guys and the OP are overreacting on this one…
i’m not talking about valley girl slang; that’s the queens english compared to the filth coming out of these girls barely out of their tweens
YAAWWWWNNNN
Get an ipod/mp3 player and turn it up. Voila. Problem solved.
It’s not just intelligence that gets you into univ…..money talks too. But I doubt money says “like.”
As long as you can breathe and pay the tuition you will get into uni. They need the money. The profs don’t care who walks in the door, they have tenure and a sabbatical on their mind.
Uni – the new way to spell ‘warehouse’
i hate when people tell me what words i can use. like, totally hate it. to the max. f’real.
i don’t do that. well, except for when i do.
our society is in fact, in decline. i have no doubt about it. one can hear and see it in the youth of today. now im not some old coot who’s just complaining. there is a distinct difference between what was commonplace among my peers as a teen and young adults, and what one observes these days
