The post In defense of Irregardless appeared first on I Will Dare.

At one point Peabo was talking about asking her yoga teacher out for a beer. I think. I’m a little foggy on the details because what happened next was of such epic proportions that the conversation that preceded it has been erased from my mind. From what I can recall thanks to hypnosis and extensive therapy the conversation went something like this:
“Blah blah I am afraid, what if, lesbian,” Peabo said.
“Blah blab blahblah your character’s have to say yes,” I said.
“Oh hohoho,” Peabo said. “That’s fictional characters. Irregardless of . . . ”
“OH MY GOD,” I cut her off and shouted in the middle of Grumpy’s. “You just said irregardless.”

We sat in silence for a moment, stunned. I watched as Peabo’s face grew ever more red.

“I can’t believe you said irregardless!”
“Me neither,” she said. “I’m so flustered, I’m blushing.”
“I know,” I said. “Because you said irregardless. I am so telling Dale next week.”

I laughed so hard that our favorite waitress Kelli even made a comment about my maniacal giggling. It was so awesome that I even had to write it down in my notebook of special things to remember not to forget.

The only reason this is so awesome is because generally Peabo is the most well-spoken person on the planet. You can tell that she puts thought into what she’s going to say and doesn’t generally blab out whatever pops into her head, unlike some people who type words for this blog. Plus, she’s a writer. A good writer. So having her blurt out this made up, bullshit word in the middle of a conversation is a cause for pause.

She said irregardless. So awesome.
