To quote Calvin (of Calvin and Hobbes fame): “Verb­ing weirds language”.

1. Impact is not a verb, no mat­ter how often peo­ple say “the plane impact­ed into the mountainside”.
2. Irre­gard­less is not a word. Regard­less of what you I might think. (How­ev­er, I still think it’s a point­less word mean­ing­less ver­bal bas­tard. (Thanks, Doug!))
3. Unthawed means to freeze, not to make not frozen.
