Like Sisters 

Any duo of girls (they usually come in pairs) that say "Like" almost every other word. No matter what the conversation or context, or who they're talking to. Most often found together at school or elsewhere, they can't seem to kick this annoying habit of theirs. They are most often just friends and usually aren't, but can be, literal sisters.
The Like Sisters over there can't go two words without saying "Like"!

Like begging

(verb) lyke beg•eeng (also upvote begging)

Like begging, or upvote begging, is when either people beg for likes and upvotes on YouTube, Reddit, etc. for so that they can be popular. Most people tend to dislike, or downvote, because begging for likes and upvotes is stupid.

Another thing people tend to do mostly on YouTube is post a stupid statement or question like, "this is how many people..." and have an arrow to the like button to get people to click it. This also is stupid for many reasons. Do not beg for likes and upvotes just to be popular. It'll give a bad look to you.

Like Kobayashi! 

v.)
1) To eat massive amounts of wieners or attempt to accomplish some daunting task very quickly. Too big a task can result in a Kobayashi Reversal.

2) To be a sore loser when you couldn't participate in something and proceed to throw a fit by protesting in a un-sportsmanlike manner. Usually results in getting arrested.
Frank: You see Jack take on that pile of hot dogs at the barbeque on Friday?

Tony: Yeah! He was like Kobayashi! NUM NUM NUM NUM NUM NUM!!
