What do you think about people who say uhh and um a lot?
    #26846219 - 07/26/20 02:25 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

Title/topic/discuss.

Those who say "uhh", "um", "you know", all throughout a conversation?

Would you say, 210 uses of "uh" or "um" within 45 minutes, too much? Annoying? Whatever?

Also hand waving?

When talking with someone who waves their hands around as they talk, using hands to further espress points of interest or themselves?

Seems very judgmental and petty to judge someone for doing stuff like that.

I know a guy that starts every sentence with "UHHMM". I stopped training him and picked up a new apprentice.

To me its mostly people who start out a sentence saying ummm. In the middle of the sentence, it doesn't bother me unless it is used sarcastically

My old boss would always say um (umb) in btween sentences sometimes. Would drive me nuts sometimes. AFter a long meeting I ask how many times he said um.

Currently my roommate boils my blood by saying 'and shit' literally before and after every single sentence. Sometimes he stuffs one in before a comma and its impossible to even have a simple short conversation with this guy. Just cant stand it.

Excessive uhs and ums can distract from what the person is trying to say,  which can be annoying. It's pretty common though, when people need a beat to think of the next word and don't want to leave blank space.

I actually like gesticulating sometimes. Just flapping your hands around for no reason would also be distracting, but if you're making gestures to emphasize your point or show what you mean then it can be good.

One of the most enlightening things I did was take a public speaking class through my job where they did a video recording of you talking about something you know well, like just talking about where you grew up. After you did your little speech, you watched the video and got some feedback one on one. It made me aware that I didn't look nearly as nervous and idiotic as I imagined, and that it was actually more natural looking to use my hands a little when I talked than stuff them in my pockets or cross my arms across my chest like I was embarrassed.

Something like that would also help someone with a lot of verbal tics like ums, in case you're looking for ideas to break someone of the habit.

I understand its a hard habit to break. But if you recognize it, then you can conquer it. And its a good habit to break. Just take the .5 seconds to think about it think and change when this happens.

Sounds like the introvert approach to meeting your talkative ass half way


--------------------
Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

Bill Gates.

Says uh or um at least 200 times within 43 minutes. I didn't even count the 'you know's'.

Waves his arms around as he speaks, much like a magician.

Spreads misinformation about hydroxychloroquine, saying there is no evidence it helps.

When there's this.

Local doctor sees success treating COVID-19 patients with ‘HCQ cocktail’

IMPERIAL COUNTY, Calif. (KYMA, KECY)-Dr. George Fareed finds success in treating coronavirus patients with a combination of a hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) cocktail made out of azithromycin or doxycycline and zinc.

For three months now, Dr. Fareed has been using the HCQ cocktail to treat patients at Pioneers Memorial Healthcare District and an outpatient clinic in Brawley.

"Hydroxychloroquine along with zinc and either azithromycin or doxycycline and it's based upon now many studies from colleagues around the world. It's shown to be an effective treatment and that’s what we need," said Dr. George Fareed, physician.

Saving many lives who have been hit with the virus, Fareed says it’s all thanks to the combination cocktail he’s prescribed to patients.

The uses of hydroxychloroquine for coronavirus has sparked national debate after studies have claimed that using it can lead to serious side effects. The FDA has also warned against its use, but Fareed says it’s a drug that doctors have been using for years to treat malaria, lupus, and arthritis.

“We need to alleviate the fear in the population that they should know that they can take something that will help them avoid pneumonia and deterioration that we want to see stopped. I work at Pioneers hospital and as an outpatient medical director. We’ve seen thousands of patients and our results have been very favorable," said Fareed.

Fareed has written a letter to president Trump and the presidential task force saying we need a drastic shift in our approach in fighting the virus.

Presenting his findings and of his colleagues who have found success treating patients with the hydroxychloroquine cocktail.

Fareed believes the HCQ cocktail is the answer in helping fight the virus.

“We are not following what’s been successful in other countries where the hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin zinc has been effective in reducing mortality," said Fareed.

"The perfect candidate is an individual who’s symptomatic and has recently been infected and the best candidates of course are high-risk patients," said Fareed.

In the U.S. , remdesivir has been the treatment of choice for COVID-19.

Fareed says he’s seen great success with hydroxychloroquine and will continue to advocate for its use in treating coronavirus patients."
