"“I could care less” when they really mean “I couldn’t care less.”"

That one always gets me too. I also despise "have your cake and eat it too".

"have your cake and eat it too"

That one gets me too...the correct phrase is Eat your cake and have it too

It's supposed to mean doing something and still having another choice on the same matter. Or something akin to that...lol

How about this instead:
“I could care less, but it’s a near thing.”

Is that better?
