"This is unacceptable," followed by the speaker eventually accepting it.

Anything involving the word respect is usually lipservice.

Corporate language and jargon is awful.

Passive voice, though I'm guilty of this sometimes.

ASAP

But it doesnt not indicate how much you care about it, so what I said is still perfectly valid.

exactly. "I could care less" means "I care enough that my level of caring has room to decrease further" while "I couldn't care less" means "It would be literally impossible for me to care less than I do now."
I'm not arguing that in anyway shape or form.

What about it? I'm not arguing against the meaning of either statement being correct or incorrect.

so then what exactly is the point of the statement "I could care less" and what is it meant to convey when you say it?

Personally? When I say it, it is because it is in regards to something I could actually care less about. If you ask my about the Kardashians I would probably respond with it because the level of caring I have for them or those types of people is firmly in the level of insignificant amount of caring. When I see topics in regards to them sometimes I might click on the topic based on the title, so there has to be at least some level of caring on my part because if I could accurately say that I couldn't care less about them those topics would be glossed over.

Meh. "I don't really care" or "I don't really care about that" makes more sense to me for that level of caring and imo is more clear.

Ok.


Basically, "I could care less" means "on a scale of 1-10, my level of caring is anywhere from 2-10." It's just pointless. It's a mistake of an expression that somehow became widely used erroneously and is now unfortunately accepted.

Any use of daddy that isnt being used by a small child in reference to their father.

At best it is cringeworthy.

Tbh, the fact that there are people who accept "I could care less" is a lot more unfortunate.

Really, wasting breath on saying that phrase implies some level of care. If you really couldn't care less you'd just rudely ignore whoever is speaking, or whatever it is that is bothering you.

So the whole phrase regardless of how you spin it is dumb.

'farming'

I'm totally averse to it, in gaming.

There's that phrase 'no-one will lie on their death bed wishing they'd spent more time at the office'

I tend to think no-one will like on their death bed wishing they'd spent more time farming in video games.
