When my buddy likes something, he says "I hear ya!"

[cutaway]

[BIGGERSTAFF]

It is what it is. :)

[ChmpgnSupernover]

Good thread btw

[Platypus]

I had never really heard the phrase 'I know, right?' until I moved to Illinois.

[JamesT]

I hear ya talkin' fer shur.

[fredgarvin]

That really resonates.

[cutaway]

It is what it is. :)
:mad:

[Flyin' Brian]

Right, right, right.

[DWB1960]

I worked with a guy in Tempe Arizona and he'd agree with you by saying "No Doubt".

[Tonemeister69]

Yeah no.

[Jan Folkson]

I hear ya...

[guzman]

Isn't that some kind of boutique talkin' ?

[shane88]

[greggorypeccary]

I hear that!

[stevieboy]

I say "That's what I'm talkin about."

Even though I wasn't talking about it. Go figure!

[cutaway]

I worked with a guy in Tempe Arizona and he'd agree with you by saying "No Doubt".

yeah, i'd usually hit those folks in the eyes with pepper spray

[dhdfoster]

No worries.

[Motorhed]

Bartle doo.

[Trout]

[phoenix 7]

Better than "I feel you," which makes me want to say, "Try it and I'll punch your lights out."

Growing up on Long Island in the early 80's I knew lots of guys who said "I hear ya."

[RickC]

You ain't lyin!

[Baxtercat]

...effin-A!

[taco-man]

Totally!

[Mr_You]

"I hear ya!" seems natural to me to politely acknowledge that you are attentively listening or agreeing with someone.

[It's Time!]

anyone know someone who does this? :huh

You "see", there are 3 types of people that say things based on the type of person they are.

Some people say, "I see what you mean", and some say "I hear ya" and there are those that will say, "I feel ya, bro".

This is all based on how people primarily communicate.

There are the "seeing people", "hearing people" and the "touchy feely people".

It's all been around since man has been around.

I always answer that phrase with "What?"


I also know a real idiot that always confirms a situation with "Delish".

The 'smelly people' just fart.

[mrbungel]

Don't trip!

[Atomic Punk]

Oh Yeah!

[sodapopinski]

HELL YA!!

[MGuts]

yes. me.

[bluesjuke]

I started a post yesterday with, "I hear you" but it's not something I use.

Guess it came to me as we were talking about sound and it was to affirm that I understood and actually "heard" what the other poster was talking about.

Ya' know what I'm talkin' about?
(feel free to use the last part)

[getbent]

I have a friend who hums after he speaks...

[DGDGBD]

I must work with your friends brother! He hums but NEVER hums a tune or anything that can be called musical. His humming is just random noises. He often talks and makes hummig noises in between his sentances! It seems very compuslive. It drives us crazy!

[lpfella]

I use "I hear ya" all the time when agreeing with people or "I'm picking up what your putting down." Or,"I hear ya knocking and I think you're coming in" - Dennis Leary

Lots of people around my parts use, "I know, right." It is a pretty validating statement.

[Washburnmemphis]

WORD

[ImmortalSix]

I say "you bet" instead of "you're welcome" --- which some folks have told me is either obnoxious, nonsensical, or "too Southern."

e.g.

"Hey Hunter, thanks for helping me out with that."

"You bet."

-Hunter

[pickaguitar]

I have a habit of saying 'real quick'...as in

Real quick..can you grab the beer?
or
Real quick..put her clothes back on!
or
I'm going to light one up real quick :)

[Motorhed]

:worthless


Also, +1 for bartle doo.



haha, I didn't know if anyone would get bartle doo or not. Ed Bassmaster is funnier than most crap out there, I could see him getting bigger than just youtube.

I've used it a couple times in real life. It was when I was leaving a store and an employee told me to have a nice day. I just nodded, said bartle doo and kept walking lol.

[Polynitro]

I saw an interview with Mick Jagger and he would say after someone told him something risque, "Dirty", so I try to use this but it almost never works. For instance a girl was telling me a story and she said, "I wasn't wearing a bra" and I said, "dirty", but then she said, "what?" ..."nevermind"

Its kind of like Austin Powers, "oh behave" or "randy"

:D:D

this made me LOL. it's like it didn't work or flew right over her head. i've had that happen to me so many times. :D

He may be a stutterer - one of the ways to help is to pretend you're singing...

[Tonekat]

damn straight!

[cooljuk]

I dig.

[snorkey]

Gotcha

[Doug H]

Uh huh... Uh huh...

This guy has no problems speaking. I have never heard him stutter.

[Dave Shoop]
