Message Subject Why do people say "You know" so much ?

Makes having certain friendships almost impossible. How do you tell someone they say 'You know " so much and is this a insecurity thing? Do people need reassurance you are listening to them and giving them attention? it's almost insane many people end every few sentences with "You know" or "You know what I mean". Some people are social outcasts because of this practice and have no idea why people run away from them. Record yourself talking and listen to how many times you say it.STOP SAYING YOU KNOW!! Ok rant over
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 20974048

You have a valid point.

In a meeting or when listening to a speaker I will often 'keep score' of how many times they say "you know" or "uhm".

Some get to over fifty in under ten minutes!
