      Its how we grew up. I'm a college grad and I still say it sometimes. Just a bad habit I guess.

        It is not an ethnic but a regional dialect. If you noticed people from the NE say "cah" as opposed to car (I refer it as Kennedy talk). Some people say hunnert instead of one hundred. Some people say foh instead of four.

Many people from the West Indies and Southern States of America still pronounce it the old way.
            Im pretty sure floyd can pronounce "task". Cuz if he had a problem pronouncing it, hed be saying "Tax" all day. We all know how much he ducks the word and the IRS.

            This is simple ebonics yo. Belie dat befo ah slap yo mouf!

                    and this thread is a huge waste of space on the internet. When you make a thread like this you should be banned.
