Cav, Gentleman Rogue

My guess is the latter. Don’t know if you’ve touched on this already, but one of my huge peeves I see lately is “how it looks like” as in “this is how I look like when I eat a good taco.” The “like” is completely unnecessary. It’s “what it looks like” or “how it looks.” Irks the shit out of me.

If you imagine a comma after “look” you’ll see that it’s not so much “here’s how I look when I’m eating a taco” and more “here’s how I look” with one example that could be followed by others as well as that particular one
