       I don't recommend you use "irregardless," but it first appeared in print more than 200 years ago! In this week's Grammar Girl podcast, Susan Herman looks at the history of this much-hated word, why dictionaries include it, and if it will ever move beyond its "nonstandard" status.

       @grammargirl I was once in a meeting that was completely derailed by someone using irregardless, followed by several people flipping out about it.I was also once in a meeting that ought to have been derailed by someone using “ask” as a noun and “action” as a verb (e.g. “so the ask here is that we action this asap.”), but nobody batted an eye.

       @jimfl Wow, that "ask/action" sentence is really something.

       @grammargirl I heard someone refer to it as a meaningless verbal bastard and that sums it up well enough for me.
