The extra "and" doesn't bother me. Nor does "nucular." But the second sounds sillier to me, because the first one is a rather arbitrary rule while the second is a mispronunciation. Of course, if it becomes a "popular" mispronunciation, then it'll become a proper pronunciation. Language is living and changing.

For the record, I also find it annoying when people say "sherbert".

[julius]

"Hella" anything.

that's a good one. It seems strange to hear full grown adults (and by "full grown" I mean people who are in their mid to late 20's) saying "hells yeah". It's grating to hear someone say it, and it's even worse to see someone type it.

It just comes off to me as someone who doesn't want to admit they're old. Quit saying it, you look immature.
