I take that as ironic and pointing at the ubiquitousness of 'like' in Valley Girl speech?
I think you've not quite grasped the use of the expression 'As if!' 'I hear you're getting a $1 billion loan from Citibank.' 'As if!' 'Tonya said that Supersportshero said you were cute.' 'As if!' Although 'I think Supersportswoman thinks I'm cute.' 'You wish.'
