I don't think I misstepped at all with the way I used it. It's just...how it's used here. If I make a mistake, I own up to it. I've never heard someone say they "could care less" about something, meaning they actually could in fact care less. I can't really even think of how I'd phrase it.

Here's an example of how I'd say it:
Friend: How do you think the Wizards will do this season?
Me: I don't know...I could care less about the Wizards.

Here, I'll quote an article by the Boston paper.


Maybe I was just taught wrong or the phrase has been americanized. I'm not trying to cover my ass;.. it may be going against the literal definition, but the phrase is accepted as genuine sarcasm where I live. We could all just be making the same mistake. maybe we're all wrong, but we'll go down with the improper ship together. Gobble

But if I'm truely mistaken, thanks for the correction. It's just trivial debate, but yet good debate. I'm always glad to say my side and hear the other's with an intelligent person like you TC.


Aaaahhh, see, now I'm well prepared to believe you that you do indeed mean it sarcastically because I'm familiar with the use of the phrase "I could give a damn...", which is a shortened reference to a quote "Oh, I could give a damn... but I don't and I won't, and YOU can't make me", it's been in many classic films usually with the second half being shouted or screamed very over the top, and the first bit "Oh, I could give a damn..." is definately sarcasm.

When people say "I could care less" though, that's just bone idle Americanised ignorance of basic language. I can see how it could be confused that way, but I've never to this day heard it spoken with a sarcastic tone or stalled inflection, it's just words to the people saying them and they don't even realise they're the wrong words.

In face, the phrase "I could care less" has become such an infamous fĂșckup in American coloquialisms than British stand up comedians make fun of it... look.





Yeah, don't get me started on "less" and "fewer", or the flagrant and constant use of double negatives, or quite possibly the one that pisses me off the most, the constant mispronounciation of niche and clique. There is no 't' in niche it's not "nitch", and clique is not "click", it's only your native language people, and for almost all of you your ONLY language. There are Japanese children who speak better English than than some Americans. Is it really so much to ask to expect people to learn to communicate. One of the most liberating and effervescent things one can do is express their passions, extol that which they love and derive that which they hate.

People criticise me for having such strong reactions to the misuse of langauge, especially as I am a poor user of it at the best of times. English was not my strong suit, I am a Scientist and language was my poor subject, as such I stumble and stammer, I fall from word to word, desperately attempting to scour the lexion of my mind to find the word, the perfect icon for the thought in my brain then agonising as I realise that not only can I not spell it but I can't even get close enough to the correct spelling for Google to hazard a guess as I haphazardly peck at the keyboard in a vague hope that my attempts will be close enough to what I intend for the spellchecker to emphatically proclaim "Did you mean:", with the self-righteous smugness I'm athropormophically granting the infernal machine with. But do I love language? But of course who doesn't?

I find pleasure, a sense of enjoyment from most things, from music to film, to video games even, as this very forum is a testiment to, although not so greatly as I have lamented I must admit. No-one however, it seems gets such enjoyment from words. Not poetry or novelisation but simply the collective anglo-saxon post norman tongue we call English, the very voice of freedom and the essence of civilization. It's our sole method of communication and the single most confirming example of intellect. Why is it then that others don't share my passion for language? Why is it that you, yes you, the very person that imbibes the air, that stares upon this screen as I type this... why is it that you consider this post so archaic, written in a strange and uncommon parlance, so much so that you're assured that at least someone has googled at least one word I've typed so far. Is it because I'm some kind of super intelligence, a genius unable to express himself surrounded by the plebs of society. No, as much as it pains me to admit it, this is not the case. It's simply that I have taken pride in my mind, that I wish to expand on my method of expression such that I can with vivacity and delight, expound and proclaim both opinions and thoughts, with a hopeful joy and a pleasurable measure of originality. Should I be mocked or ridiculed for such a thing.

Well decide this, do I seem pretentious or elitist to you, or do I seem to speak with clarity of thought and intelligence of mind? Are you uncomfortable with the fact that I know the difference between 'uninterested' and 'disinterested' such that I can without confusion or stress immediately determine which is the none-partisan of the words, while at the same time you're painfully aware that someone has just looked up none-partisan, while another has quite rightly but quite pointlessly attempted to point out my hypocricy for the incorrect use of the letter 'e' in non-partisan. We're all uncomfortable, we're all feeling a need to prove oneself at this point, to show that our minds are alert and capable of at least stringing together a sentence of intelligable countenance.

Here's the secret. I looked up the spelling of no less than fifteen different words, in this post, and checked the meaning of a further two just to make sure I was using them correctly. My vocabulary is wide but by no means perfect, and being a grammar nazi makes you neither big nor clever, however if we all take just a little pride in ourselves perhaps we can at least sound like moderately intelligent adults rather than the borderline moronic trolls that usually inhabit the internet. I'm not asking much, I don't espect colourful language in every post, all I want is for people to make sense. Let us enjoy language together and never again use the excuse "it's only the internet" to permit ourself to sound like the drawl of a drunk man with a golf-ball sized hole in his tongue. Who know, we might just enjoy it.

The following user groaned TornadoCreator for this awful post:

No, we don't because we would sue the living crap out of the schools for trying to enforce something against personal life. You can be 14 and date a senior who is 17/18.

I don't think this happened at my school, but then I wasn't a 'cool kid'. I think if someone in year 11 was banging a year 7, then yeah, have at him, 15/16 and a 11/12, no thanks. I think it's what makes the English Society how it is. Having stupid shit like this. You can't do this or you'll be laughed at. I think it's quite immature to be honest. I mean, if you're 16, act like a 16 year old. People focus too much on how they should act at school, and then when they get into the real world, they don't know what's hit them. They still act like the 'big man' they thought they were at school, they laugh at all the things that you would laugh at at school but it's perfectly fine in the real world, such as taking a shit at work. The amount of people who do that and no one gives a fuk. I can't remember any stupid stuff like this at school, apart from the shit taking, but looking back at the toilets, who would want to unless it was mega needed.

For me, and many people, the general "rule" is half your age plus 7. I'm 20, so that means 17. That sounds right to me, I wouldn't go for a 16 year old, someone who's in year 11. But then, when you get older, you don't give a fuk. I think if you're 30 and bang an 18 year old, you'll be getting high fives off your mates. I just think school kids need to act their age. At 16/17/18 instead of acting like someone in year 8. "Euuuurgh you kissed a girl", that's how it sounds to me.
