Or guys that have served time that end a statement with "you know what I mean?" or "you feel me?"
A woman in my life with the first name of Missus/Doctor unfortunately has a habit of starting her statement with "No..." regardless of the topic. I could say "Wow, the sunrise was very pretty this morning" and she might respond "No, we should plant the tomatoes in pots this year". Not as a counterpoint, just tossing out there what she wanted to say next. I'm left wondering if maybe the sunrise wasn't so pretty and that I'm just a poor judge of the morning eastern sky.

She knows how that space-filler comes across and works to avoid it, but ummm it keeps coming back.

Right?
