Why do we some of us close every statement with, "You know what I mean?"?

Asked by ETpro (34605points) June 19th, 2010

To be sure, there are some thoughts that are complex enough that it may bear asking listeners if they got the gist of what you said. But do simple statements like, “I’m hungry.” really need a, “You know what I mean? tacked onto the end of them? Why does “Know what I mean?” become such an overused phrase for some people? You know what I mean?
