the vote should be titled, "vote for the thread of the year out of the ones i , gonzo, like irregardless of the memberships choices".
this vote, in its present form, is a hollow farce.

Quote:ir·re·gard·less ( P ) Pronunciation Key (r-gärdls)
adv. Nonstandard
Regardless.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Probably blend of irrespective, and regardless.]
Usage Note: Irregardless is a word that many mistakenly believe to be correct usage in formal style, when in fact it is used chiefly in nonstandard speech or casual writing. Coined in the United States in the early 20th century, it has met with a blizzard of condemnation for being an improper yoking of irrespective and regardless and for the logical absurdity of combining the negative ir- prefix and -less suffix in a single term. Although one might reasonably argue that it is no different from words with redundant affixes like debone and unravel, it has been considered a blunder for decades and will probably continue to be so.

I refuse to retract my Grumpy Gillis vote for the vacationing thread. In fact, I put double emphasis on the Grumpy Gillis thread. Gooch was made to look the fool. Gonzo fought Keyser. Seph posted.

irregardless of your opinion, enough people have changed votes and/or expressed dismay at the omittance of the vacation thread to warrant a new vote.
01-09-2005, 02:43 AM
great, you all gave him a new gimmick to latch onto for the next 4 months.
01-09-2005, 02:44 AM

Why take pride in it?

Do you also use the phrase "couldn't care less" to show your complete apathy? Why not just go all the way and post in ebonics?
01-09-2005, 02:46 AM
i shall continue to use irregardless irregardless of your opinion on irregardless.
01-09-2005, 02:47 AM
also "couldn't care less" is correct. it is "could care less" that you should have used as an example.
