Afraid I have to agree. The thought of being judged as lacking in class or caring because I don't say something a certain way makes me feel sad that it is actually even an issue for someone.

For some comments or saying I can certainly see why it might sound odd or different or make you go hmmmm, but to actually get annoyed to the point of anger or judging someone to that extent based on a phrase is a little silly IMO.
