Which it really does sound terrible, but you can't help how you grew up talking always without thinking about how to say things properly
I use "like" a lot, too. My parents tried so hard to stamp it out of my speech when I picked it up as a preteen, but it's still there, lurking. It comes out when I get excited or overwhelmed.
