As someone who didn't their formative years reading a lot more than taking, I also certainly pronounce a bunch of words wrong. It's always the pretentious ones, too, like pretentious, because people so rarely use them in speech.
Anyway, if enough of us pronounce them wrong together, it'll be the right people who are wrong!
