As a non-native english speaker I fukin' SWEAR "like" is your best ally and simultaneously your worst nightmare while trying to sound natural.
It's such an overused resource between "good-but-not-that-good" level of language fluidity, even in some natives. The worse part of the whole ordeal is that I still catch myself sandwiching it in every 3-4 sentences I say.
Abandoning bad speech habits is ridiculously frustrating.
