Slack jaw gaze Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 I've noticed recently a tendency for people to answer questions with an answer that follows the form: "So ...". I have mostly noticed it during interviews on radio and TV. I just heard a radio interview with a doctor who started every answer with "So...". Is this new? Is this regional? I haven't noticed it in personal conversations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocket ignites Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 So...I can't answer that but the next time I hear someone use "literally" I'm going to rage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laughedatbytime Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Why replace "like" with "so" when they go so well together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your_Lion Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Peter Gabriel never released an album called "Like" (I even just Googled it to make sure, just in case he had) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day of Light Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 "So" has always been common in speech from my perspective. I hear it a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital Dad Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 My buddy does that. He then launches into a long and complex story that makes you question your feeble existence...then he throws some mad curveball that makes it really interesting.

Verena Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 (edited) Peter Gabriel never released an album called "Like" (I even just Googled it to make sure, just in case he had) I thought the same here. :D (Personally I don't use "so" a lot. I prefer to use "very much".) Edited June 12, 2016 by rhyv 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
