About X

X would be happy to never hear the word IRREGARDLESS again. X prefers to just use REGARDLESS. X is even more distraught by the fact the word originated in western Indiana.

X would also like to eliminate the word AT, though only when used to end a sentence.  X also proposes the use of an 'AT Jar' where the guilty party would deposit one quarter every time he or she ended a sentence with AT. 

X longs for the elimination of the letter S, though only when added at the end of a store name where it is not already present.

X is leaning toward the removal of the word WHY, but only after the seventh time hearing it in less than a minute.

X would be pleased to never see the phrase NEW IMPROVED FLAVOR on products he plans to purchase, because it almost always eludes to the addition of MSG.

X is in favor of the elimination of the word IDIOT. For reasons unknown, the word resonates poorly with X, cringing every time he hears it.

This is a list of words X would like to see eliminated, though, it could also be viewed as a list of X's pet peeves. Go figure.

Irregardless is an indiana invention?! Score! And where'd we get the habit of ending sentences with at at?

I read that 'irregardless' is an Indiana invention when I checked to see if it really is a word.

Now, where'd I leave my dictionary at? I guess I'll go pick one up at Krogers.

I was expecting to see you use the word, 'cute' too!
