I'll post, I'll post... I've just been busy lately. Five of my eight teachers have gone crazy with end of the year projects and I've still got to find time to play Chain of Memories, y'know?
"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.

Bah. I'll come up with something over the weekend, I promise.
