    I can't fukking stand it when people(read: americans) say 'i could care less' about something they don't care about. LISTEN TO THE WORDS COMING OUT OF YOUR MOUTHS! you're telling me you care! :mad:

    /rant

    Any ridiculously nonsensical phrases that really annoy you?




    also in before the predictable over-thanked "i could care less"/"i couldn't care less" first post response!

    "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it" - damn right I do!

    "They get on like a house on fire" - er... what?

    "Safe as houses" - like, in Baghdad...?

    Thread title is 'Could you care less?' and my honest reply is 'No, I actually couldn't'

    Not looking for thanks, just stating a fact and answering a question you asked OP!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,554 ✭✭✭✭alwaysadub


    "I'll do it now in a minute"

    Surely you'll either do it now, or do it in a minute. Can't be both.

    that's my point, the statement clearly implies that they care, you have to care at least a bit in order to make the statement 'i could care less'! twats.

    "Don't come running back to me if you break your legs"

    You don't get a medal. Maybe read my post a little more carefully next time.

    At the end of the day.
    When all's said and done.
    When push comes to shove.
    Put some clothes on, it's 4 in the afternoon.

    All things I'm sick of hearing.

    It comes from "eat your cake and have it", meaning "can't have it both ways"
    it took me a while to learn that one though ><

    It's a "word" rather than a phrase, but it really annoys me. Irregardless.

    Yeah what's that about it? Are they irrelevant? Surely to the rat...but I suppose not to us. Thus, you could say ''I couldn't give a flamingo's left webbed foot''.

    Happy out. Ah fcuk off.

    I couldn't care less..... means it is not possible to care any less about something.

    On a scale of 0 to 10 you are at 0 in terms of caring and therefore couldn't care any less.
