is, like, n. Slang 1. to say something similar to [she was, like, "whoa!"]  2. to perform an action implied by; often is followed by a sound effect [I was, like, "wham!"] : same as is like,
—Note that, unlike paraphrase, the expression is, like, indicates a rewording performed by the speaker, rather than the individual quoted

I dunno! I don't actually listen to myself, so I don't know what odd slang I might be familiar with. Any suggestions?

Maybe you could, like, you know, pick one of Trish's, like, colloquialisms from her, y'know, story or something.
