No, “could care less” is lazy, inaccurate, and wrong.
It’s no less incorrect than someone saying “needs repaired”.
As I said above, WORDS MEAN THINGS. Full phrases grew that way for a reason, because EVERY WORD matters.
That some folks are lazy and imprecise is an insult to those who actually care about clear communication and the English language.
You are most often very accurate in your comments, (the ones I have read over the years) but this time I must disagree with you. Fully, completely and without reservation I think you are wrong.
