"...I just love life/FMA sometimes ~^," -the name of a topic on the RR forums
"Personally I don't think it was necessary to put FMA and life there. Because I'm sure everyone here realizes that FMA is life. ...Only on the Risembool Rangers forum could I get away with such a statement..." -me, commenting on the name of said topic on the RR forums

"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.

Yes, Luffy has been injured twice (Luffy being the name of my Pirate-themed Ripper). Darn you, Marlene...

~ Part of my post in a Ragnarok Online roleplay I have over e-mail. Gali is my Wizard, Gaaki my Hunter, and the two yelling people are my Stalker and Sniper, respectively"Geez," she muttered. "I hope they don't get hit..."
Gaaki glanced at her. "What do you mean?"
"I just saw-" Gali started to explain. At that moment, all three sisters clearly heard a loud "AGH! DARN IT!!" and a more quiet "Ouch!" as a meteor hit near the middle of the mob. "-I don't think I need to finish," sighed Gali.
