It's particularly ironic to trying to make usage of 'irregardless' seem like reaching for unearned language skills since it is a real word, being several hundred years old. You could benefit from looking into the actual standing of this word - is it possible that you're the one who's reaching?
- Jedd 6y agoIronic? There's plenty of words from several hundred years ago that are no longer considered part of current language(s). In any case, I don't believe Bob was uttering the word out of a charming fondness for etymological anachronisms, so much as pretentious ignorance.
