[QUOTE="Bestoutwest, post: 1418112, member: 19397"] I'm sure there's something that you can't stand either, but it's a mispronunciation of the two words 'going to.' It is not a colloquialism as I've heard it in every state I've lived in (and so far I've made it to 3 out of 4 time zones in the continental US). I also feel the same way for 'creek' vs. 'crick.' It is spelled c-r-e-e-k. Two e's together make the long /e/ sound, therefore, when someone says 'crick' they are mispronouncing the word. Again, it's nails on a verbal chalkboard. GB, that was an example, you can't paint me into a corner that easily. [/QUOTE]
