You are correct, of course. It is so frustrating that I've justified it for the incorrect as a shortening of:
I could (exhibit that I) care less (because I do care less than I currently exhibit).
Or, as a matter of giving the benefit of the doubt:
I could (exhibit that I) care less (because I am, through effort, caring more right now than I would naturally).
- rapind 16y agoHow about, "I care so little that I can't even be bothered to properly pronounce that I couldn't care less." or "I could care less" is actually sarcasm which implicates that caring is obviously unlikely. Both statements display a stronger degree of uncaring than "I couldn't care less" which is actually a pretty boring and to the point statement. Therefore I find "I could care less" to be the clear winner to indicate how little I actually care. In summary, "I could care less".
