Seems to little of a problem to waste energy on IMO. Some people talk weird, some people think weird, some people look weird. I blame Jesus.

Filler of any type is, you know, kind of annoying.

And she goes "are you invited to Sharon's do"? and I go "don't be stupid, she's a scrag!"
And then she goes " I know, the stupid mole didn't invite me neither ...".   etc, etc

When someone says " Do you know what she turned around and said " To emphasise their disagreement with what has been said.
I always want to say "Did she have her back to you then"

Ten words you need to Stop Misspelling:

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
