I don't think so. Because in saying, "I could careless" makes it hypothetical and not so much a contradiction. It's like doing something you don't want to do, but have to anyway.

Doesn't matter what you think, it's still wrong.

A. It's "care less", not careless

B, Hypothetical or not, the saying is self defeating if you say you could care less. It's meant to imply that you do not vsre, not that you care some. Leaving a quantifiable amount of care in such a phrase or cliche makes absolutely no sense.

Well technically they are two different statements, with two different meanings. So it's only self defeating if you compare the two.

If post #10 isn't a bannable offense I've never seen one.

Too bad we're contrasting the two instead.

Proper grammar is really a pet peave of mine! I am sometimes guilty though, because of the fact that texting has made us all so very lazy!

LOL - it is pet peeve not pet peave Mr. Grammar.

Which might be the flaw in and of itself. Too bad indeed.

Irregardless isn't a proper word. The term is regardless. To add the prefix of "ir" to regardless completely negates the meaning of the word.

Gosh guys, Did you not see that everyone had at least one grammatical error in each of their posts!? you get points for catching it though!

It would be careless to say I could care less
