Never, EVER, hang about with someone who makes over-use of the term 'y'know'
in small pauses, to gloss over not knowing the word they want to express or just at the end of every sentence regardless.

Why? Because after a few days you'll, y'know, find that you're.... y'know, doing it as well y'know?

(This also applies to the the word 'yeah?' along with rising inflection. If you catch the nasty habit it's just as difficult to ditch).

A guy I know says it
but only when he's put on the spot.

Mrs SLVA started using 'yeah, whatever' if we were having a disagreement. I pointed out that she sounded like a 12 year old. She never said it again after that.

the FamilyGuy response to that is...
'Peter, you're acting like a child!'
'Yeah, well if I'm a child, you know what that makes you? A Paedophile. And I'm damned if I'll be lectured by a pervert'
