This is one of the worst comments I have ever seen in my life. You might think I’m being dramatic, but this comment is so bad it actually makes my stomach hurt a little. It is physically causing me discomfort. Nice work comment writer. Thanks a billion.

You should have said “like every other word”.

Exactly. I like (enjoy) using similes in everyday speech. The word, like, totally has its place.

This graph is so true.Everyone in the math class was doing a project and when my friend went up,during her whole presentation I counted how many ties she said ‘like’.She said it 27 times all the way through

Like, I don’t think, like, using the word ‘like’ is really, like, that annoying. I think, like, people are, like, totally overreacting to, like, this graph.

I say like a lot. It’s a habit that I’ve been trying to break. I started doing it in second grade due to exposer to Disney Channel too early.

Well, the graph-maker would Geordies…

Also, it’s spelt “likeability.” I can’t believe no-one’s noticed that. This graph is mediocre and its creator is illiterate.

I really like this graph! It almost looks like the one I saw the other day… I liked that one, too.
.
I used like, does that make me annoying? Hahahaha

It doesn’t make sense! Someone who uses like once a day is normal? Someone who uses like once an hour is mildly irritating? WTF?

Don’t they mean like, misusing the work like, like? I was was just, like thinking…
Sorry I could resist beating that dead horse one more time. Like.

this isn’t funny… old news.

By: Sesoron

Sesoron — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 17:24:22 +0000

The problem with this graph is that’s it’s too simplistic. It’s a simple negative correlation between “using like” and “likability”. That’s just an artless cultural observation. What makes for an actually funny graph is one that sets up a trend and subverts it with something unexpected or ironic.

Does this give me permission to like, dislike my teenager?

Because I HATE it when he talks like this, and I point it out to him about fifty times a day.

I don’t know. I think everyone has their own thinking word that they use whenever they have to stop and think mid-sentence. I say “like” a lot, but I use it in the same way that someone else would go “ummm…ummm…”

My Sunday School teacher’s thinking word is “y’know…”

I love the sheer level of fail found in these comments. Half of them are so far from the point of the graph you’d get charged long distance to try to explain it to them.

Like, know what I mean?

Not unless you are a former HS English teacher and you had to hear the word “like” almost continuously. I think this graph is friggin’ hilarious.

I would like to see a clever graph on students using the word “gay” to describe everything from their locker door jamming (My locker is like so gay.) to their homework project ( Can you believe that we have to write a paper for History class; that’s like so gay. Yeah, our teacher is really mean, too.)

I don’t necissarily like people who never say like.

The maker of this graph must love me very much.

This is the best graph ever. So true.

Shouldn’t this be a bar graph? It’s not really a progression. Unless perhaps it represents an individual person’s descent into incomprehensibility.

By: Lancer

Lancer — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 14:12:36 +0000

Kinda true, but the values are a bit exxagerated. I mean, pretty much every one uses the word like at least once a day.

I would be willing to bet that you wouldn’t notice if someone said like every hour. Heck, it’s almost unnoticable nowadays when people use it a lot.

… or is gnarly and rad?

Ok, back in the late 80′s over one Thanksgiving break we got the office receptionist to put a recording on the voice mail where she did the entire thing in ‘Valley Girl’ talk. We had people calling the machine for weeks to hear that, it was, …like totally hilarious.

…but is it likable?

That’s like the truest graph ever.
