Normalcy is actually a word, but wasn't until Warren Harding said it.

If you go to Merriam-Webster both irregardless and normalcy have definitions. Just another reason why I felt it necessary to ask...

Interesting. Now that I think of it, irregardless is technically a word, but is used wrong grammatically.

I use irregardless, but just cause I think it's funny to watch people throw fits telling me it's not a word. 🙂
 
Yeesh. I was watching a documentary on the evolution of the nuclear bomb on the Discovery Channel (might have been the History channel) and the narrator kept saying "nook-u-ler". I wanted to throw something at the TV everytime he said it.

Irregardless
 
I used to watch "Beyond 2000" on the Discovery channel, and they would say "Aluminium" instead of "Aluminum". (Its a British thing).

Drove me nuts.
