I do it.
I can't stand people who drop the "T" when it is the middle of a word.

"Great Britain" becomes "Great Bri-en." "Thornton becomes Thor-un" It's a speech habit that is spreading, and I hate it.
Usually spoken with a heavy vocal-fry affectation, too. And, I, too hate it, and I, too notice that it's been spreading for the last couple of years.
