My first thought was "you're damn right is" or variants thereof.

i catch myself making a variety of different fillers and other annoying verbal sounds. it amazes me i can make my point at all, particularly professionally when i speak at meetings or conferences or the like. i've been told that i remind people of boomhauer from 'king of the hill,' so i cna only imagine what those poor sons of bitches have to endure when i'm trying to talk.

the worst i've observed is when i was helping to mentor a class of freshmen in their orientation class in college. they had to give a little personal history presentation for the rest of the class as a ice-breaker. at least half of them started every single sentence with "whenever i was..."

'and whenever i was 13, we moved to a fancy trailer with flamingos and everything. and then whenever i was 15, i started making love to my cousin in his 4x4 with the 36' swampers. and then whenever i was 17, i won the paintball championship for my church group. and then whenever i was 18, i started college.'

it drove me nuts.
