I'm sorry, but did you just type out the word irregardless?

It’s not wrong, and sometimes sounds better

It absolutely does not sound better and it is wrong. It is a double negative. Irregardless means not regardless and I'm sick of language changing to match our degrading abilities.

You can do it, you see my error. Call me out.

It is a word though, and it’s not some new slang. Does it make sense? Not necessarily, but there are plenty of words in the English language that don’t follow the set standard. It’s sure as hell not worth getting upset over, and I don’t think any opinion is absolute.

If you typed out the word ain't I would say the same thing, it doesn't even abbreviate the word isn't.. Get my point? I wasn't angry or trying to insult.
My point was the fact that they typed out the entire word.. You have to admit that's different than saying it.
