Why do people constantly say, "You know what I'm sayin?" when they talk to people?

People say this because they themselves don't even know what the hell they're talking about. They're probably stoned or something. So to make up for their nonsense, they try to throw you a curve by making you agree to know what they're saying. Uh...no, I don't know what yo' sayin', but I sure wish you'd shut the hell up.

just in case they do need to say it. I think some people say stuff and say that cos they think the listener might think they are treated as stupid if you state the obvious so if you say "needless to say" then they's know you don't think they are stupid, even if you think they didn't know.

I know what you mean.\n\nI do that too.\n\nBut I don't mean to.  Sometimes people go around with a mad look on their face and they dont even know it.\n\nso  smile more often when you talk to peep.\n\nThats a start. more smiley face

They have some guilty secret that they are afraid people will realize or they are lying their heads off on one topic or another while speaking. \n\nThe other possibility is that you have some spinach caught between your teeth or a new pimple on your nose and they are embarrassed to mention it to you.so they are avoiding that kind of mental closeness.

Well Some think It stands for Mind Your questions and answers.\nBut when they say it to you they Dont want you to hear your input on what they are saying or what they are doing. Like this is my problem so just stay out of it.\nDont ask listen or answer!

The question is when shutting up people that APPARENTLY don't know what they're talking about is (and, most of the time, is) a discriminatory act, that will establish some people above others based on half a dozen of pricks thinks that is considered intelligence or know-how in given areas.\n\nI've lately came to the conclusion that, more often than not, people actually KNOW what they're talking about -- they just use less refined language, and have a more broad approach of things -- and they know just as much as some people who have a a more refined language and choose to be snob when giving answers.\n\nIf you feel annoyed when people don't seem to know what they're talking about, try one of three things :\n\n*ignore them, and let them be (one day, you could be considered the ignorant one...)\n*change subject\n*ask them questions that challenge them to defend better their position and give more consistent arguments.\n\nI understand that it can be anoying at times, but freedom of speech is one of the best things we've got =).

It's a way of exaggerating your annoyance. It's like saying, there's no way somebody could annoy me more than you.

They look at it as the right way to do it, therefore they repeat it. They don't see it as a guideline. \n\nI think after a while of saying it so often, it would get a little tedious, don't you think? Saying the same thing over and over without making it personal. What's the point? \n\nI think also think it's part habit. For some people, it's been ingrained into their heads that this is what they are suppossed to do and at this time.\n\nKind of like pagan beliefs, yeah?

They are only talking behind your back to make themselves look better.  People who talk about others are always trying to make themselves look better in someone else's eyes.  Guys also give each other a hard time and not think too much about it.  Maybe you should just ignore this kind of behavior.  Don't practice it either.  As you say, they are being immature.  Be the mentor, not the little kid.

I have a speech problem, and trust me... you need to ask them to repeat themselves.\n\nI talk way too fast sometimes, and I never realize it. Sometimes I say the first few words of a sentence so fast that people don't understand it. I always appreciate it when they tell me, because once I slow down they can understand me. \n\nIf you just don't say anything, they won't know that they're doing anything wrong. \nDon't be afraid to be blunt, it shows them that you care about what they have to say.
