Sorry everybody, I didn`t mean to start a controversy & normally I wouldn`t have bothered, except that it happened to be on my mind. I was just talking about it in my grammar class the previous day, so it happened to stick out more the usual. It is one of those words that everyone uses & is wrong. It`s different from words like regular & irregular. My grammar isn`t always the best & normally I didn`t nitpick but, again, it just happened to be on my mind. Once again I`m sorry.
I have the same pet peeve about `irregardless` used in place of `regardless` as well as `mute point` used instead of `moot point`. There`s nothing wrong, in my opinion, with a gentle, polite reminder of a gramattical misuse.
Don`t get up in arms about it. I`m sure the previous poster didn`t mean to offend anyone. Actually, I think it does matter how you write, everyone should, at least, try to be clear and understandable in their spelling and abbreviations.
Woozie buddy, You may be right man, irregardless probably isn`t a word, however I have heard many people say that word, especially here in the midwest, and I have also read that word in writing on numerous occasions, so I am not the only one who thinks this is a word, but I am sure you are right, and I am not going to bother looking it up in the dictionary, I am too tired, I had a long work day! But irregardless of the word irregardless Woozie, I believe you and I and any other red blooded American dude can agree, Jennifer Lopez is such a woman!

AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Sorry, I know this has nothing to do with hair, but it`s a HUGE pet peeve of mine. THERE IS NO SUCH WORD AS IRREGARDLESS!!!! The word is regardless. Sorry, Johan I`ve loved reading your comments over the past few weeks & I agree with you on almost everything you`ve said, but I just couldn`t let this go. I hope you can forgive me. As far as Jennifer Lopez goes, ( BTW I hate the term J-Lo) it would be great if it were true but she`s tricked us before.

Jennifer Lopez is one of America`s most beautiful women! Even though I usually prefer women with short hairstyles, Jennifer looks great in longer hair, especially with a body wave. However if she is going shorter like you say, all the better, she would also look terrific in a short crop hairstyle, with beautiful makeup, jewelry and earrings! But irregardless of her hairstyle , she is a very beautiful woman from head to toe!
in the recent U.S. mag, it shows pictures of j.lo and ben affleck in their new movie. neway, j-los hair is still cury, but now it comes to the bottom of her ear. quite a bit shorter than we`ve seen in the past.
