Yes this drives me crazy! They think it's "supposably" and it just shows how ignorant they are!
You've touched on one of my thousands of pet peeves regarding the misuse of the English language!

The only time I ever saw any humor in this was on a friends episode where they were trying to correct Joey from saying that. Why also do these people when you correct them say "whatever" and then never change? It's as if they want to sound ignorant.
Another one is "do you know where misty went?" "no I don't have any ideal" They can't seem to realize that ideal and idea are two different things.

Yes. Also hate it when people say libary instead of library and idear instead of idea. I also have clients that make the word "mine" have 2 sylables and pronounce it like it rhymes with lion.

YES!!! Nothing irritates me more. Except maybe people who say IRregardless.

You have no idea how much this annoys me. I also hate "ax" instead of "ask".

You're lucky, here in Central PA people swap "let" and "leave". As in "Let her alone" and "leave me be".
It makes me want to scream!!!
