Why is it that someone always seems to say "You know what I mean?" after a statement or question that you DON`T agree with and/or don't understand whatsoever?  It`s like they knew they lost ya, so they added that at the end to get a courtesy nod so they don`t feel stupid.  

There are different ways these are delivered.  The most popular way right now is the urban style.  Better heard as "Nah mean?" or "You know?" or "Ya heard meh?"  The thing I like about these renditions is that they put it out there having it look exactly like it is...shit.  Ignorant, insecure conversation to hide the fact that they don`t even know what they`re talking about.   

"Yo, I wuz just like fuck 'em.  If he`z ganna do`z me like dat then I aint even ganna go out like dat.  Nah mean?"     

No.    

Not at all.        

Isn`t 'Hez' a character from That 70`s Show?       

Nevermind.      

But even worse than that are the uncles who use that phrase.  We ALL have one.  All he does tell jokes and stories with nothing but sexual innuendo, with set ups like, "Do you know the difference between anal sex and spinach?" or "So this girl gets a yeast infection.."

Wait, WHAT?  Back up.  You`re my god damned uncle.  Or just some old dude who is always around my family who we have called "uncle" since we were kids because he went on a blind date with one of my aunts at some point and didn`t even get a kiss much less any finger jelly and now she hates you but we keep you around because you hook us up when you fix our family`s cars.   

Fuck you, Uncle Rick.  If you`re not coming OUT of a vagina in this family or coming IN a vagina in this family, then ya ain't family.  NOW SCRAM!  Uncle Rick is always the one who makes those verbal ribs whenever a hot chick shows up on TV or anywhere else nearby.  I`ll say, "Ow, I just burned my hand," and he`ll be staring at a questionably-of-age girl and exclaim, "Man, I`d lie to burn THAT!  If ya know what I mean!"   

What?  

You`re gonna burn her?  With fire?  In your car?  You`re gonna go early 90`s on her and make fun of her and call it a burn?  I don`t get it at all, Uncle Rick.  Keep your dick in your pants and pay attention to my blistering hand because the kitchen`s on fire, you bitch.    

Alright, time for me to go hit the sack..   

if ya know what I mean!
