Meaning
adverb regardless; a combination of irrespective and regardless sometimes used humorously
originProbably a blend of irrespective + regardless; the word can also be analysed as ir- + regardless because it is possible that the prefix ir- was added to amplify the negative in regardless just as plain negatives often did at the time the word came into use (and still do in dialects).
