Popcorn, I can more imagine the likes in the sentence as follows:
“I was, like, walking down, like, the avenue, and I, like, saw Shaindy, like, across the (like?) street, and she was, like, wearing that great outfit, and I like wish I know where she, like, bought it” – you were pretty lenient with the number of likes!
It’s amazing how ridiculous people can sound. Sometimes, when I catch myself using some of these words, I stop and rephrase.
I remember, several year ago, when I was in a car with a few people and a man was talking – he kept using the expression “you know” after every few words, and it was almost painful to listen!
