I still cant get past not pronouncing the letter T in the middle of a word
There is nothing more annoying than this
Instead of “mountain” you get “moun-in”
Makes me want to jump out of a window

Interesting take. Maybe we can mobilize this mindset and circle back on it. I’ll ping you later and work out the deets. No need to boil the ocean on this.

I immediately discount anyone who does this up-speak and vocal fry BS.

It's called up-speaking and I've found it most often used in overcompensating for trying to lessen an assertive tone. Over time, it can become a habit. It's become almost the default for a growing number of the under-40 crowd.
"I went to the store? And bought some chips? And then came back home?"
It comes across (at least to me) as someone who sorely lacks confidence seeking confirmation (which makes me not want to give confirmation because the older I get the more crotchety I get).

Same, but why do people do it?
Don’t they understand how douchey it sounds? Same for leaving the T out of mountain.

it's either a conscious or subconscious desire to not come off as too assertive or confrontational.

It's been a southern thing since time immemorial.

It’s not just them. It’s annoying as hell.

I always assume that people who do this are trying to sound like they're from California.

Apostrophes no longer exist in sentences.
I found those apostrophes - half of my students have them (and/or hyphens) in their name.
