It's a mispronunciation and an affectation, all rolled up in one annoying monkey screech.
It also annoys me when people use "less" instead of "fewer", especially when referring to human beings, as in "With our new system enhancements, we'll need less people."
And another one: neglecting to add the "s" to the possessive form of a single-syllable, singular noun ending in "s". For example: "Wes' new job was acquired by dating the boss' daughter, for Zeus' sake."
