Holding Your Opinion In High Irregard
(My sister has recently gotten a new boyfriend, and my fiancée and I are talking about them after one my classes. It should be noted that I am quite the grammar cop and will poke fun at my friends if they get something wrong.)
Me: “So, [Sister’s Boyfriend] is totally down with dressing up and spending time in the city.”
Fiancée: “Ooh, that’d be fun.”
Me: “Of course, it can’t be too expensive. Plus, I have no idea when will be the next time I get the weekend off from work.”
Fiancée: “We’ll figure it out. There’s no immediate rush.”
Me: *sneers* “You realize that ‘immediate rush’ is redundant, right?”
Fiancée: “…I do. But irregardless, I’ll still say it.”
(Yes, she knows that ‘irregardless’ is not a word. She was just messing with me right back.)
