Not that the act itself is cool, just the word.
Wow what a crazy word. Never heard of that one but you'd think it'd be quite commonly known. Maybe it is and I'm just out of the loop.

My favorite is "rigmarole"

According to this, it is actually a word, although it does say that "it is a long way from general acceptance." Interesting. I don't use the word personally, but I don't turn my nose up at people who do. Not saying that's what you do, just thought you might find the link useful.

M-W link for "irregardless"

I used to say 'irregardless' until I was corrected. Now I turn my nose up at those who make the same mistake, there's a proper way to do things
