And another thing: irregardless isn't a word. You need to decide between irrespective and regardless. To accept "irregardless" as a legitimate word would imply the opposite of what you are trying to say, anyway - the prefix "ir" suggests the opposite of the root word it is modifying.

Wrong is wrong, yes, but it is folly to argue that there are not degrees of wrong. Even our legal system acknowledges this. Different degrees of offenses result in different degrees of penalization.

Since MAZOC (apparently in your eyes) has now become a literary editing organization:
"Irregardless" is a word commonly used in place of regardless or irrespective, which has caused controversy since the early twentieth century, though the word appeared in print as early as 1795. [1] Most dictionaries list it as "nonstandard" or "incorrect". Also, the "Ir" and "less" seem to make it a double negative, ultimately meaning "regard". Microsoft word even puts a red squiggly line under irregarless and suggests "regardless".

I am fine not becoming the gammar police for the forum, and apparently you should reconsider that course of action as well.

And one other thing.. you spell rediculous, ridiculous.
OK, I am so sorry if I put words in your post! Yes, you did not literally "type" that, but the insinuation was there, and that is what I take umbrage with.

Thanks for the correction on my choice of spelling. (please see my other recent post).

Merriam-Webster.. thank you sir, I read that too.

Which would in fact BE a word. Thanks.

My last post on this here before I feel the need to take it to the off-topic thread if you want to continue this:

I used Wikipedia for most of my post. Merriam-Webster states:
"ir·re·gard·less adverb \ˌir-i-ˈgärd-ləs\
Definition of IRREGARDLESS nonstandard : regardless
Usage Discussion of IRREGARDLESS
Irregardless originated in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its fairly widespread use in speech called it to the attention of usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark about it is that “there is no such word.” There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead."

These are definitely the kind of parking lot hooligans that would ruin a MAZOC meet. bleh.

Nothing badazz about it, especially the first guy who 180's around. That was clearly not intentional.

And I agree with most everyone here that while spirited cruises are not a safe idea, they're clearly less foolish than this.

And another thing..must've is a contraction of "must have," not "must of." "Must of" clearly doesn't make any sense. Just sayin'.

But I don't guess grammar police on the iggy list of an offender make a difference.

They're both wrong though no matter how you look at it, that's all I'm saying Al..
