“irregardless” used to drive me up the wall. My boss uses it all the time and my brain silently melts. I’ve been told that it is now an official word. I refuse to use it - regardless.

I had a Delcam class a year or so ago. I heard “At the end of the day…” so many times when I came back home I swore the next person to say it was getting bitch slapped. And every freakin body says it.

PowerMill and PowerShape. Yeah, pretty crazy stuff. You ever use it?
Was an Artcam user for many years.
I am an engraver by trade and was part of a team of engravers that helped develop the software for use.
Not involved now as the engraving industry in the UK is almost gone!

@authormichellehughes Please… Everytime I talk to my missus in our language people want to stop us fighting!
The missus huh? Good thing you mentioned that… Looking at your avatar I was about to start flirting lol
Late to this one, sorry…but I was more than a bit taken aback to learn that “Aigner” is actually pronounced “On-yay.” Just didn’t seem right after wearing “Ag-nurr” all these years…

As a photographer, Nikon gets on my wick! 
3 different ways to say it across the UK, Ireland and the States, and all of them wrong, lol. It’s actually pronounced “Nee-Kon” - the Americans say “Nye-kon”, the Brits say “Nick-on” and us Irish a mixture of the two
