I find myself saying 'very well' and 'very good' a lot when people ask me to do things.
And I say 'right' when agreeing with things. Particularly when I'm in a conversation that I find dull.
What I dislike more than anything else in other people's conversations, and it's already been mentioned before, is the use of the word 'like' interjected every other word in a sentence. I see this almost invariably every time I happen to catch a few minutes of one of those MTV reality shows. It makes my skin crawl.
