Fact: Sam Walton was born in Kingfisher, Oklahoma. There is a Wal-Mart in Kingfisher, Oklahoma that, by Sam's will, must never close unless the company goes under. So, if Wal-mart somehow goes out of business, the Wal-mart in Kingfisher will be the last one to close.
Look at this signature. Isn't it the funniest and most hilarious signature you've ever seen?

Fact: Ken Akamatsu, creator of Negima and Love Hina, is actually Jiraiya. ...What do you mean that's not a fact?
"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.
