In the meme’s humorous complaint about the overuse of “like” in teenage speech, the repeated insertion of the word serves as an example of a discourse marker rather than a literal lexical item. From a pragmatic perspective, discourse markers like “like” may fulfill conversational functions such as hedging, approximating, or signaling hesitation. Therefore, despite the perceived redundancy, their presence is not necessarily grammatically incorrect, but rather reflects informal speech strategies.
