Holla!
Holla?
Holla?!?

Oh you just reminded me of a friend I used to kick it with! She was so chill and she would use "holla" as convo filler. It was so cute, she would change the pitch and drag it out depending on how it needed to be used (holllla!). I got a huge kick out of that.
 
Actually just watch Psych a lot and pay attention to Gus. I basically learned everything I know about life, women and pharmaceutical sales from him.

You done?

Sigh.
(Hand motion to speed up)
(Eye rolling)
(Look at wrist even though there is no watch)
Ooh, bad idea.
No, you didn't.
You are so fucked.
 
Damn!

Shit!

That is wack!
 
I often rephrase what was said and use that as a filler to show that I am memorizing the information being presented through the oratory.
 
I say what you say.. what is happening...

is blamespace taking control of my brain?
 
A lot of "Yeah man" and "That blows"

Then you can mix it up a bit. "That fucking blows, man" or "Totally sucks brah"

I get a couple of phrases from people at work.
 
I just goes with the flows.

There's no magic in holding a conversation. No algorithm.

It's all about tapping into the harmonics of the situation and creating resonance.

Believe me, I ain't no master chef of tête-à-tête; if I can do it, so can everyone else.
 
Weather, sports, the government, the economy.

Sports is the worst though, mainly cos I have zero interest in it. I watch just enough games and match of the day and shit to have an opinion on it, but its so shite.
