I've heard it, too. Worse for me is when people cut words out. One example (of very many) was my ex-wife's family. They'd say things like "The car needs washed".. And I'd always say to my then-gf and later wife "TO BE..TO BE washed!". Same with their dog, Charlie "Charlie needs fed"..Any my mind would fly with TO BE FED!!
IIN that I find this error in speech annoying?
