Plenty of peopel in the thread you made on that asked for what she plagarzied.
Funny that neither the New York Post story or you bothered to show anything..
But isn't it not funny how irregardless of that nasty fact you state it as if it is legit and not simply slander.

Duh--there is no such word as "irregardless." The word is simply "regardless." Irrespective is perfectly okay, but not "irregardless."

We shall see in the end whom will be right..IMO irregardless is a word and will be defined as such.


Irregardless I like the "word" irregardless. So I'll use it.

$$+Lawyers=You best have more then conjecture and slander.

My bet is this will simply fade away..




...and She got this spot on-



So True.

Actually, I don't disagree with Coulter's assessment. My only point of dispute would be: when was the Post *ever* a respectable daily? Somewhere I've got a coffee mug with the classic Post headline of all time: "Headless body in topless bar." They were tabloid before tabloid was cool.

"Irregardless" is not proper because it is wholly redundant with the word, "regardless." They both mean the same thing! There is no reason to put the prefix, "ir" in front of regardless!

Use the word "irregardless" and you will look and sound like a dummy. The choice is yours.

(*)(*)(*)(*), why do schools no longer teach basic grammar?

Logic and English don't always go together, Barn.

Else why would "flammable" and "inflammable" mean the same thing?

I never suggested they did. There is much in our English language that is illogical. Why isn't "phonetic" spelled like it sounds? Nevertheless, there is proper grammar, and there is improper grammar, and "irregardless" is most improper.

Autumn and fall also mean the same thing, and both words are perfectly fine. Smell and fragrance also mean the same thing. But the beauty of our language is autumn and fragrance are much more stimulating words than fall and smell.
