I have a problem in that when I saw "Awesome!" I think of Dean Winchester and when I say "Whut?" I think of Gurton Buster. So, me? I'm amused.
To onlookers I probably look really simple.
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Perkins, that's awful. I'm so sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Speaking of overused words/phrases, how am I just now listening to Cee-lo's "Fuck You" for the first time?? I need to listen to this ALL THE TIME.

When does she find out the test results?
ita, she found out that day. She passed. And she already knew the things she was no good at!
Undoubtedly my verbal tics make you all crazy. Like msbelle, I'm sure they are present in my posts. Probably not as irksome as the content of the posts themselves, though.
My favorite verbal tic is to say, "And yet...." whenever a student wants to negotiate with me. The conversations look like this:
Student: "I think my grade should be higher because I did these things you said to do..."
Me: "And yet..."
t insert shrug
It's very satisfying.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
That's not a verbal tic, that's a parry.
