Totes creeps back in.
Wash: So, two days in a hospital? That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors? Simon: Hey. Wash: I mean, present company excluded. Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I was like 'It's totally a better movie!'
Yeah, yeah, I overuse 'like' too. It even grates on me when *I* do it, and yet I say this all the time!
I feel like I'm channelling Janice the Muppet: Like ya know, for sure, REALLY! ::tosses hair out of eyes::

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have to rank literally as a pretty poor intensifier, because it's like setting the volume to 11. I'm deaf now, it doesn't matter anymore.
I am not doing today well. I'd really really like a redo of everything except that great fic I read before work. Well, technically, redoing that wouldn't be bad either--it's just that everything else should change.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
As in "Steve grabbed the book, and he was like 'This is a better movie!' and I was like 'It's totally a better movie!'"
I have a lot of fondness for that usage. Also the similar application of "all". As in "so I was all, 'I have to see what book they're talking about' but I didn't want to interrupt."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ditto with the "was like" and "was all" to mean "said."
I just had the thing where I saw someone in the hallway and went, "CRAP! You need something from me. What is it?"

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Ditto with the "was like" and "was all" to mean "said."
Yep. I'm like, "So I was like," all the time. I don't think I use "was all" as much.
I'm an English major and everything.
