Like, is this a Lost Cause?

Do you say 'like' when a pause would do just as well? For most of us, the answer is probably, regrettably, "yes".

I am going to resolve right now to attempt to stop doing this. I think it will be hard. This may be on the same scale as trying to stop saying, "um" or "uh", which are also lofty and worthwhile goals.

Wish me luck.
