29 Oct 07 Care Less or More?

Ack!  People, people – it’s “I couldn’t care less,” not “I could care less.” The former states that there is no more care to be given, that you really don’t care at all and that you can’t possible care any less than you do because you are already completely devoid of care.  The latter says that there is still some care there, that it is possible to care less than you currently do by saying that you could care less.  See the difference? 

Yeah, yeah, losing battle, yada yada.  I’ll shut up now.

    Ha!! I make that mistake CONSTANTLY and I’m supposed to be a writer.

    Really though, I could care less about it when it happens.

    I think we’ve all fallen prey to it at some point or another.  :)
