I have a standard, on/off light switch for the fan/light in a room. The past 2 days the light does not want to turn on when the switch is flipped "up" it wants to turn on when the switch is almost in a half-way position between "up" and "down"
The light will remain off when the switch is "down" and the light will remain off when the switch is completely flipped "up". There has been no electrical work done, no storms nothing altered or changed in that room or the home.
Is this switch just wearing out (it's only about 8 months old) or what could be causing this issue?

Your assessment would be correct as it sounds like a bad switch to me. Age is really no factor. I cannot begin to tell you the number of new products I've bought and/or installed over the years that we're bad straight out of the box.
$2.00 and 5 minutes and you should be switching right again!!!
