I keep pronouncing "sudo" as "soo-doh."

It's really annoying.

Umm, how the heck else would one pronounce it? I know it is a contraction of 'super user do' but soo-doo sounds like something stuck to a ninja turtle foot.

lol I've heard everywhere else that that is in fact the correct pronunciation.

I will pronounce it that way when I am dead. Sudo (like judo) is the way.

All right, I feel better now! lol.

I mean, I can see why one would pronounce it that way. It's a neologism that's spelled like judo except it starts with an s instead of a j.
