Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs


My vocabulary has been peppered with rapid "yeah,yeah,yeah" and "no,no,no" this week...I'm not sure where it came from. When I was in Italy in June I heard lots of "si,si,si" and thought it was charming but I never really picked it up or tried to bring it back. Now, all of a sudden...I'm an American Italian.
I'm thinking it's a way of me speeding up the other person's thoughts and editing the conversation all at the same time. "yeah,yeah,yeah I know what you mean so let's finish and go to the next topic" or something like that...yeah,yeah,yeah that's it.
