"It's like this Organization XIII-type personality quiz on the internet; the Axel result's like, 'You're probably often mistaken for being gay'." -me, in the midst of a geometry class discussion about all things Kingdom Hearts

"OH NO, FORGET I SAID ANYTHING." -me

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

(The following is an excerpt from a conversation between two of my friends who don't know each other. For now, I'll call them Mari and Ken, thanks to reading my Japanese textbook too much)
(Mild editing involved since this was an IM log, and so several sentences had to patched up. Sorry, it's a bit long.)Mari: I'm married to ****** Waya. Hell yes. AND YOU'D BETTER BELIEVE IT! Or else.
Ken: Or else?
Mari: Yes.
Ken: Or else what?
Mari: I'll stab you. With a popsicle.
(later)
Mari: Can I eat you?
Ken: Err...Please don't. Don't stab or eat me please!
Mari: I'll eat you...AND THEN KILL YOU!
Ken: Wow...just like how the Fijians did it.
(even later)
Ken: You know what Fiji is though, right?
Mari: Nooope.
Ken: Fiji is a country in Oceana. Much like Hawaii except they're going through major ethnic turmoil. Still a nice tourist spot. XD
Mari: OHH. AND THEY EAT PEOPLE?!
Ken: They used to...Yeah. Well, I'm gonna go away now.
Mari: Ohh, my kin! I always suspected I wasn't native to (*edits location out*)
Should I...oh whatever. /o/
Meh Siggy Site
