gmku's pet peeve of the week: uptalk.

What is uptalk? it's ending every sentence like the one before this one, as if it's a question. I hear this so freaking much, and it is extremely annoying to me. People at work will go through an entire work conversation this way, letting their voice rise on the last or close to last syllable of every sentence. It makes me want to interrupt and say, "Is that a question?" And when they do ask a question, how do I tell the difference? "Oh. Is that a question?"
