Guest tv_party Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 (edited) could care less could still work if sarcastic/ironic usage is considered.

Guest vodor Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 all languages and dialects are just shadows of the Platonic ideal, so this sort of nitpicking is rather frivolous don't you think?

thief Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Never understood how people get the could/couldn't confused. Such simple, blatant logic. I gave up trying to figure out why people would say they could care less, I put it down to people just saying the phrase (because it sounds smart or something?) without thinking about what the words actually meant.

pylonbitch Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 (edited) simply, a) "i couldn't care less" : it is not possible for me to care less than i do because i do not care at all. b) "i could care less" : it is still possible for me to care less, because i care, at the very least, a little. phrase b is semantic nonsense in the context it is normally used. lol america. suggestion for modification of said phrase for the purposes of actually making sense: "i could care less, but it wouldn't be easy" Edited June 4, 2010 by loganfive Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide pylonbitch's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/56870-dear-america/page/2/#findComment-1342655 Share on other sites More sharing options...

colunga Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 I agree with this. Although I always felt that "holding down the fort" was using both military tactic (as said in the vid) and like "keep the situation handled until I get back" "Hold it down. Don't let shit get out of control." "Stay on top of it. Hold it down."

Guest leprechaun Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 I'm embarrassed to admit this, but I heard "I could care less" come out of my mouth the other day. I immediately stopped and corrected myself, but I guess it's ingrained in some of us 'mericans.
