Don’t axe me.
Worked with a young man who used that term all the time. Tried to correct him to no avail. It's a shame because he was ordinarily very intelligent, but using “axe” for “ask” made him look like a dimwit.

Oh my!!! We have a woman at work who "axes" and who is "axed" questions. We shudder every time she "axes"!!
