Today I used the word "pertains" in a sentence. I need to stop reading so much.

I said superfluous and was roundly mocked by my students.
Check out my blog and YouTube channel for thoughts, articles, system profiles, and tips.
I have a penchant for using the word "penchant".
Life? Don't talk to me about life.
I use the word "Indeed!" far more often than my general level of fanciness deserves.
Purportedly. I need to stop reading the Tech Report so much.

The words eloquence, retrograde and miasma have been in my vocabulary as of late (all work-related, of course).
Ooohh, the pain......

I find myself using 'irrespective' and 'irregardless' a lot.

Just say "regardless" instead of being party to the perpetuation of this thing.

Yeah, in order to sound fancy it needs to be proper English. I had a high school teacher who would just about slap people for saying that. 😀

Using the word Inadvertently recently made me feel a bit weird.

Irregardless is an actual word. It's in the dictionary.
And despite rumors to the contrary, 'ain't' is also an actual word. That ought to bring out the grammar Nazi's.
Word I try to never use: Tho (shorthand for although). I can always rewrite a sentence to use "But" instead.
