Recently when a few dumb asses attempted to correct me about my usage of the word irregardless. They attempted to correct me and I got lulz. Kept on driveling about how it wasn't a word but yet it is a word. It means the same exact thing as regardless, however the ir- prefix acts as an intensifier.

I also use the words ain't, y'all and yonder quite often due to my redneck nature. I find it incredibly petty to attempt to correct anyone on the use of a word when they obviously have proper syntax, spelling, and punctuation. I only use this example because it's fairly fresh on my memory. Outside of this, I get crazy lulz anytime I see go on a rant. I believe my first interaction with him was about monetary systems.
Irregardless is a bit awkward, but yeah it's fine as a word. Then again, English pretty much chases words down a dark alley and beats them to within an inch of their lives so they join the language. Almost anything goes.
