Thread: Stuff That Annoys The Hell Out Of Me

irregardless of what you think, I could care less what you're telling me about

Oh tell me about it man I totally understand irregardless of what other idoits say. I could care less what they think

I didn't realize this was a contest to annoy Saturday Fever.
Good job!

Irregardless

adv : in spite of everything; without regard to drawbacks; "he carried on regardless of the difficulties" [syn: regardless, irrespective, disregardless, no matter, disregarding]

Usage Note: Irregardless is a word that many mistakenly believe to be correct usage in formal style, when in fact it is used chiefly in nonstandard speech or casual writing. Coined in the United States in the early 20th century, it has met with a blizzard of condemnation for being an improper yoking of irrespective and regardless and for the logical absurdity of combining the negative ir- prefix and -less suffix in a single term. Although one might reasonably argue that it is no different from words with redundant affixes like debone and unravel, it has been considered a blunder for decades and will probably continue to be so.

It's like "doh!" getting into the dictionary. DAMN US AMERICANS!

Tell me about it- Ive never heard anyone say,"irreguardless" But Im sure its misused.. obviously it would have to mean,"I dont say this without reguard to.." Basically a note that somebody is considering a factor, but it isnt worthy of a point. IMO anyways.

Im going to start using that Ive always used,"I couldnt care less" but apparently the people I say it to could care less how its said

I think "McJob" Got in there too, there was a lawsuit I believe

I hate it when people point to their wrist and ask me what time it is. You dont see me going around grabbing my crotch asking where the restroom is.

That was a good one. Your hillarious.

I'm guessing that's when they see you wearing a wristwatch, hence they form certain expectations.

Are you, in this case, expecting them to "open wide"?

here's one i actually love (similar to one Sat Fever hates)

my nephew mistakenly said "I can't want to care" instead of "I don't care" when he was about 3. i've wholeheartedly adopted that phrase. not only do i not care...but i can't even aspire to care.

"Meanwhile back at the farm." who started that one?

"Okee-dokey"

Anyone who talks for a minute with out even hinting at a point.

Oh and people who say good-bye at the end of voicemails, you can just hang-up the machine will know that the call was terminated it doesn't need vocal confirmation.
