Maybe it's just me....

It just kills me when people use the word "irregardless". It's terrible grammar, a double negative and isn't even really a word. I can't even talk to someone who uses that word without thinking, "what a moron". is it normal to think this?

    Misuse of grammar might be annoying, but feeling superior to them makes you a wanker

    Proper word usage and sentence structure are dying in our society. It is sad that so many in our country place little to no value in eloquence.

    "Irregardless" is a great example of the ignorance and laziness of some people. Another is "karaoke" pronounced "kare-EE-OO-kee" instead of "kah-ROH-kay."

    I could go on and on, but the point is well-taken. Some of us take pride in our ability to communicate clearly and properly. Many others do not.

    C'est la vie!

    irregardless of what you say, some people continue to say it. Seriously, had a 3 hour debate with somebody before about this. Then, when it had been confirmed that I was right and he was thick, my college tutor used the same fucking word! I wanted to throw my chair at him...college lecturer, eh?!?!

    Apparently, you have missed the point as I have clearly illustrated 3 reasons why this is a problem, rodney. But, I guess if someone wants to sound like a slack jawed, mouth breathing hillbilly, then more power to them. Man up? It's good to see you aren't missing any episodes of Dr Phil....*sigh*
