Livejournal's verbal tick

[ivyblossom]

For a time, a good friend of mine (ahem, it might be isilya, but I will not use her name in order to protect her anonymity) picked up a verbal tick from someone she knows that had her adding a question mark to every sentence she uttered.

me: How are you today?
friend: Fine? I think?
me: Oh yeah? Rough day?
friend: I can't find my new wireless mouse?

After a time she realized what she was doing and stopped. It was sort of cute.

But it appears that livejournal has the same verbal tick:



Your login cookie seems to have, like, disappeared or something? Could that be? Maybe it was just a server burp? I mean, who knows? Don't blame me, I'm not sure, but some of the folks here have noticed some odd things going on? So just sit tight?

We seem to have forgotten the purpose of punctuation. It's like we just throw all of the available options into a hat and pick one. And when I say "we", I mean "them", of course.
