Verbal Ticks



In the words of Peter Griffin, You know what grinds my gears? People that have verbal.. uhh... ticks.  Like when I was at my rep meeting, my uhh, coworker sounded like ummm a fucking 9 year old Bulgarian trying to learn to speak english.

Like, how on earth have you made it through life without someone smacking you in your face for uhhh, not being able to complete ONE sentence flawlessly.  I know that it sometimes takes 8, or in your case, 75 years to master the english language so I try to be patient.  But as I count the number of likes, ummms, uhhhs, and okays you use, all I keep thinking is that there is a 1:1 relationship between your verbal vomits vs how many times your step-mom tried to drown you in the tub as a child.  Coincidence? I think not.

I work around the corner from the learnenglish.com building.  Do I really have to send over a FOB to teach you how to speak English?
