Thank God I never got into saying "like" all the time!  My 15 year old daughter, however, uses it entirely too much!  :P

Unfortunately, I add 'like' at the end of a sentence too much - like. Part of having a Birmingham accent I guess.

"Dude, you wanna like go play some video games?"
"Nah, I don't like feel like it."

I picked up the "like" habit in middle school, and gradually broke myself of it by the end of my teens.  Thank you Vals!

I probably said "like" regularly up until the mid '90s. These days I catch myself saying it every now & then.   :P

But that's like, uh, not even a real word!

I use the phrases: "kind of," "sort of," and "you know" too often.
