Bonus points if it’s usually misused/misunderstood by the people who say it
“I could care less”.
Oh really? How much less?
At least it makes sense when people say “I couldn’t care less.”
“I tried to, I really did. But I just could not care less. I’d hit the bottom of the barrel.”
I thought that was the joke: I could care less… but I can’t even be bothered to care any less because I care so little.
It’s just people saying it wrong, like “bone apple tea” instead of " bon appetit". It’s supposed to be “I couldn’t care less”. But I mean come on, these are the same people who searched for “Michael Jackson Billy’s Jeans” so often on YouTube that it became a recommended search term. Lol.
It can be interpreted as sarcasm, as in “tell me more, I could care even less.”
