Good!! attention gotten. My mate on the Gibson forum agrees with me about the wrongly used "I could care less" phrase opposed to "I couldn't careless" , when describing absolute indifference to something. If you want total disdain to be shown "I couldn't care less" is the way to go"
I wont even start on"the phrase "back in the day" aghh LMAO (WTF!!! back in what day? trendy saying that everyone uses)

This is a fantastic thread because a pet hate of mine is modern lazy English, I just wish people would listen to the words they say then try to see if it makes sense?
Cologne she'll wear silver and americard, She'll drive a beetle car and beat you down at cool Canasta. And when the clothes are strewn don't be afraid of the room touch the fullness of her breast feel the love of her caress she will be your living end.
I really don't get too hung up and variances in the english language , in fact i quite like it to be honest , i think if everyone spoke the same it would be boring and bland , i guess as long as i understand what they ultimately mean .. it's all good in my book .

its I couldnt give a shit. If it was I could givea shit, then the argument I couldn't give a flying fuck (meaning you dont care), would become i could give a flying fuck (meaning you do care).
What about the 2 planes that had a "near miss".You either miss or hit.Does a near miss mean the planes collided but if they hadnt hit they would have missed???????This phrase used in news media drives me nuts cause its so utterly mindless and idiotic.
