    i use facetious a lot in conversation. i'm more mindful of what i say when i have to type it out, but when i'm speaking it flies out of my mouth way too much. and i say charming too much as well.

    ugh but my three worst offenses are my cali phrases: "dude", "mega", and "hella". i make a conscious effort not to say them, but dude, it's mega hard. like, really hella difficult. :P

    LMAO, Tinkerbell! You're hella stupid!

    I'm going to Hinton today to buy some stuff. It's gonna be hella cool! Then I'm going up to the Jasper hot springs and soak, and it's gonna be hella sweet!

    Love, Shamus.

    LOL @ shamus. dude, that's a hella good pickup line (ew i didnt put dude in there facetiously, that was a genuine dude, i just proved my point :P). next time some mega cute chick tells you she thinks your glasses are hella cute, you should fully say that!!

    yeah, "fully" is another california-ism. i think.

    LOL sens i totally forgot cartman says hella...it seems normal to me 'cause practically everyone here says it, it's a hella Northern Californian expression. my SoCal friends think i am a geek when i say it.
