Could / Couldn't
While the two phrases - "couldn't care less" and "could care less" - are
used identically, only "couldn't care less" says exactly what it intends
to convey.
It states that one simply could not care less than they already care.
The speaker's interest is at zero and couldn't get any lower; whereas,
"could care less" means one's interest is sufficiently high, but there
is wiggle room for it to be lowered.

I don't get it...do you really think "I coulc care less" is correct???
Because if that is what you are saying, it means that because you DO
care some, you COULD care less than that.

Home run
Hank Aaron was a true superstar, who achieved greatness and broke Babe
Ruth's record without the use of chemicals. Bonds may break his record
but it's not the same, IMHO.

Home Runs
I selected "I couldn't care less." What the answer should have been
was: "I could care less."
Because of the common misuse of the double negative, that answer
actually states: "It is the most 'fantabolous' event of the century."
Of course it is not (IMHO).
