Is there an accent/dialect/colloquial context in which this is a word?

This confused me like "where did I say that?"
Your quoting/edit left me in the quote tags from Inco's post

(to answer your question, not that I know of...just a typo)

Ah snap. Gotta watch those quotes within quotes.

Irregardless is a common internet crime against English.
Don't stress. I've seen it so often now I've almost typed it myself.

It sounds like an AI irrigation system for lazy gardeners.

I typed that on purpose, I don't personally use it, but it's pretty common in Miami.

So, that answers my question then.

Cant help but chuckle at myself. I did consider this due to the affinity for es-panglish speakers to use the word "regardless" as is. There was a latino comedian in the early 00s who did a bit about his father shoehorning the word into casual conversation. His name escapes me...the quote/edit kerfuffle disrupted my morning brainwaves more than usual

The answer is usually a variation of "you really don't want to know, ignorance is bliss."

For a long time, northern English accents were seen is grotty, and a sign of lower class. Then Game of Thrones came along, now my accent is a total babe magnet. Thanks HBO.

This is my favorite accent in the US. Scroll to 45 seconds for the sexy.

That's a dang neat accent. Hadn't heard it before.

I was curious, so I looked at youtube:

The problem with that is finding 100 random people from Bakersfield/Kern county these days. But I do pronounce words like they say. There is also a more pronounced drawl or twang or something. My accent is a little more Arkansas than Oklahoma though. I used to hear a lot of things like "warshh" the car and cabinet "droor". My grandpa would say "wrench" the dishes. Pillow vs Pel-low was another one.

"Know what I mean", "eh?", "Know what I'm sayin'" were all more common than "ummm" or "uh" for pausing.

There is also a hint of spicoli and Mexican influence in there. Quite a bit of Basque too.

A lot of people sounded like Merle Haggard

Which is kind of what I sound like sometimes. My family predates the dust bowl migration there I think. At least half of it does.

There is also this weird joke voice that a lot of people do there, usually when sayin' somethibg like "know what I'm sayin'?" (Billy more does it in the trailer below). Or "Man". Not a lot of swearing...mostly weird funny things instead.

There is a bunch of it in this trailer (I think I know the guy that made that):

The Kern/northern Mexico hybrid is kinda cool too.

I guess I should mention that Haggard is kinda Dale-ian or North of the River...meaning from oildale. It's a little different and more Oklahoma. Kevin Harvick is kind of like that too..

Korn have lost it a bit, but head has the most Bakersfield, the guy on the left has a bit of la influence and Jonathan Davis is trying to hide it...but it comes out (I know he went to back coaches and voice trainers)

It's a pretty subtle accent overall.

Sorry that I rambled...I love learning about accents.

The pin/pen merger is one of my least favorite things in this world.
