Notes on hipster grammar: the word "like" may be added to any declarative sentence. E.g., "That's my pen" becomes "That's, like, my pen."
@MathPrinceps Moreover, variants such as "Like, that's my pen," and "That's my, like, pen" are common. Even "That's my pen, like" occurs.

@MathPrinceps In no case does the insertion of the word "like" materially alter the meaning of the original utterance. -
@MathPrinceps This remains true even when the word "like" is inserted more than once, as in "Like, that's, like, my pen." - 1 more reply
