Drove me crazy when he said it.

Then just last week, I was talking with an attorney friend and I said its not a proper word. She tells me that it is indeed a word.

I thought i was li-barry.

Side note, if you're ever in a conversation with a chick and the topic is Southern accents, first lesson is...
Tell her to say the name Mr. Itus, first name Arthur. Then have her say the first and last name together...Arthur Itus and "walla" or viola , she just said arthritis in Southern.

Hahah, yep, cringe worthy. I've heard it many times before, but usually with younger folks.

I used to work with a guy, "supposed to" came out at "posedta"

That's a Hispanic thing. I notice a lot of the younger Hispanic-American say supposedly that way.

I had a manager who used to say subjugated instead of subjected.
It wasn't my place to correct him.

For some reason I only do that when I'm writing 'cause - I don't know why.

"Expidentually" (exponentially) is a thing around here.

We Appalachians can really wreck the English language. Sometimes it doesn't sound like English at all, sounds like Dale Gribble on King of the Hill.

Whenever someone tells they could care less about something I always want ask how much less they can care.

Irregardless is a word, apparently. (Although my spell check is not recognizing it.)

I often wonder if the English, Scottish or any English speaking countries have problems understanding our southern or Appalachian accent like how I have a huge trouble understanding Scottish or Irish English.

How about the Dutch? They learn English by watching American Movies, not dubbed in Dutch unlike many other countries. I wonder if they have a hard time wit' dat?
