In response to "sadly, I sorta have" by tRuMaN

I have no confidence in an accountant that uses the phrase "could care less". I'm taking my business elsewhere!

Seriously, you're an accountant! You understand that by saying you "could care less", you are literally saying that you in fact care to some degree!

also, the proper expression is:"couldn't care less." -- nm - Andie Apr 1, 09:42 6
- Makes sense, but I hear "could care less" so very often, I have my doubts. - con_carne Apr 1, 09:45 3
  - think about the meaning, if you "could care less" then you care somewhat, because it is possible for you to care less than you do. - Andie Apr 1, 09:48

  - Andie and Mop are right. -- nm - loosilu Apr 1, 09:46
