                    I don't know.
                    I know, right?
                    What?
                    It's just like, you know what I mean?
                    No, I don't.
                    Oh my God, you don't even know!
                    You're right.
                    That's what I'm talkin' 'bout!
                    Uh... ok?
                    That's it - end of story.
                    Great. Bye!
                    He man, what's your problem?
                    What's my problem?
                    I don't like the way that you're talkin' to me,
                    But I don't really mind what you're sayin'.
                    My back will be turned to the words that you speak
                    Until you find a way to properly convey 'em.

                    People! (people!) The way that you talk
                    Is often so very embarrassing it's time that it stopped!
                    Our generation sounds like a bunch of dumb kids
                    Who grew up, but still talk like a bunch of dumb kids
                    It's time to reunite It's due time that we fight
                    Deterioration of our communication tonight
                    I call upon us all to stand tall in our hearts
                    And stop talking like morons, here's where we start
                    When typing email please be aware
                    That there are three different forms of the word pronounced "there"
                    And if you dare misuse one in a letter beware
                    I will delete you from my friends list like I just don't care
                    The first is spelled T-H-E-Y apostrophe R-E
                    It's a contraction of the noun "they" and the verb "are", you see?
                    T-H-E-I-R is a possessive pronoun when
                    You want to say that they posses it, or it belongs to them
                    And T-H-E-R-E is an adverb with direction
                    Which often times is used to modify a preposition
                    With practice you can learn to use all three in a sentence
                    For example: "They're in there with their bear." - there, I said it
                    The thing (huh?) I hate most (huh?) that gets me (huh?) so pissed (huh?)
                    Are people (huh?), adults (huh?), who talk (huh?) like this (huh?)
                    Like everything's (huh?) a question (huh?), with such( huh?) indecision (huh?)
                    You sound like a little kid, speak with some conviction!
                    And speaking of questions, you needn't announce one
                    By stating the word first before you pop out one
                    'cause when you say "Question: What is the story?"
                    I'll reply, "Answer: That is annoying."
                    And like please don't like overuse the word like
                    Unless you're like planin' like talkin' 'bout your new bike
                    "like" is an adverb, it's used to compare things
                    Like when you say "like" so much, you sound like a prom queen.
                    You know what I mean, you know - you know what I mean?
                    UGH! Stop asking me that, I'll stop and ask if need be!
                    And please don't reply with "that's what I'm talkin' 'bout"
                    When I'm talking 'cause actually, that's what I'm talkin' 'bout
                    Please refrain from typing messages in all caps
                    Please cease abbreviating happening to haps
                    Stop with the fake words, like 'guestimates' and 'factoids'
                    And never use more than one exclamation point!
                    Enough with the quote fingers - I get it - the tone
                    Of your voice and choice of expression alone
                    Should suffice to imply that you're being sarcastic
                    You're only slowing down a boring story with a hand trick
                    And you've gotta STOP using the word gay
                    The way you describe a dislike, like when you say
                    "That's such a gay car, this song is so gay"
                    Are you in middle school you little fool, act your age, ok?
                    Enunciate, articulate, and say what you mean
                    And speak up so I can hear you but you don't need to scream
                    Don't talk with your mouth full and don't interrupt me
                    And if you say end of story, then I will leave abruptly
                    All of these lazy and unnecessary phrases
                    Make us seem so very dated almost as we're half our ages
                    Try and make a change and maybe then in the end
                    We can be friends, but until then:
                    I don't like the way that you're talkin' to me,
                    But I don't really mind what you're sayin'.
                    My back will be turned to the words that you speak
                    Until you find a way to properly convey 'em.
                    I don't like the way that you're talkin' to me,
                    But I don't really mind what you're sayin'.
                    Back turned to the words that you speak
