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.

We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I may never speak again.
I have attempted food. I shall await the outcome.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
She passed.
Cool! Shiny new belt!
I'd like to think I have no verbal tic past a couple fillers. I did spend too much time at a few previous jobs saying "Good luck with that!" and "How did that work out for you?" but that was more attitude than tic.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I can't think of any annoying verbal tics that I have. Unless it's my tendency to randomly tell people to go fuck themselves.
But really, I can't think of any.

Wait, I know! I've been told I'm highly annoying when I talk to cats. But only non-cat-people have told me this.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I have plenty of peeves.
My dad has even more. What really sucks is that he gets very angry and enforces those peeves before you even know what it is you've done. Had a moment like that with him today. My eyes started welling up with tears because I realized that this is flashing me back to my childhood and never knowing what it was I was doing "wrong" that was going to get me smacked.

Because books.
I say groovy all the time. But I actually like the way the kids roll their eyes when I do, so. (My kids, I mean.)
I also say awesome more than any adult person should, I guess.
I think my most egregious verbal tic/habit is swearing. A lot.

Jesse's verbalisms, I hear in my head as Jesse. Ditto with some of Kat's (though I am drawing a blan...OH! "SERIOUSLY?!")
I have a tendency to oddly understate. I use "somewhat" a lot to describe a fucked up situation. My coworkers groan when I use it, knowing it isn't good. And very often, basic descriptions desert me, so I describe things oddly. Like a beadboard panel fell from my neighbor's porch ceiling. When I ran into him (he hadn't been home) I said "So it looks like part of your beadboard.....migrated" (gesturing to the panel on the porch floor. )He said "How very politic a phrasing there!" I swear to god, "fell down" didn't even cross my brain. Weird.
Oooh! Neighbor gossip! He's engaged to the girlfriend I met a few days back. Getting hitched sometime next year.

Aw, Spidra. I know what that is like. {{}}
