I become equally irritated when a young person is relating an experience to me and each sentence he or she utters , ends sounding like a question .

This upward inflection at the end of every utterance is a particular favorite of liberals. It really sheds light on their mental processes (such as they are) because that upward inflection that makes everything into a hybrid of question and statement is typical of their "no such thing as right or wrong" worldview. It's also an ingredient in the overall smugness they exude, because it has a hint of "Am I going slow enough for you, morons?" to it, as well as a healthy portion of self-satisfaction at just how deliberative they are.
I shocked an adult store-clerk into acknowledging his sloppiness - learned from his teenager, he said - when he used "like" in this manner by asking him, "It was "like" that, was it?"
