"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.

Hey! I'm not obsessed with Full Metal Panic... And I've never even seen Full Metal Jacket. I'm not big on FM Radio, either, and I don't like anything that could be described as a Flamable Mutant. Ok, well, Flamable Mutants are cool, but...
...I mean, um, was mistaken.
