"actually" is the new "like"

Just start listening for how many times people say "actually" and you'll see what I mean.

I avoid that word at all costs now.

As long as it's not 'really' I'll be ok, actually ;-)

[donkeyransom]

[meridianblue]

A good excuse for you to come and visit if you don't know what we're saying!

Happy Friday to you too. I need to catch up with what you've been up to. I'm behind again!

[donkeyransom]

haha - not much has changed lately. I'd let you know ;)

And I think an England-Germany-Slovenia trip is definitely in order in 2006. I'll keep you posted on that too.

actually, i never realized how much people say it, but youre right. (and yes, i put that in there on purpose) :)

[donkeyransom]

I try to stay somewhat situationally aware.

But...actually is most often followed by like. Listen for it. I personally hate "very, sort of..." That drives me nuts. Is it very? Or is it sort of? Pick one!!

[donkeyransom]

better than "irregardless"

[zsazsanomore]

hahaha...Dianne says that.
