Damn it. That was a prime opportunity and I missed out. Should of read the forums more at work this morning.

"I could care less" is easily the worst.

--- Post Update ---

Most Americans know it's a logic fail, but it's an idiom over there. We have loads of them in the UK as well. The problem is that it's really frustrating to read when you don't know that it's an idiom.

I don't agree. I could care less and I couldn't care less are both colloquialisms or perhaps more accurately figurative speech, that have different meanings. The former is not the same as the latter, and many people (not just Americans) misuse it.

Neither are idioms though, as they mean literally what they say.

In my defence, it's too much effort to type colloquialism on the iPad so I just went with idiom.

Or! You are full of **** and did not know the difference.

If it helps you admit it, I did not either.

I think that's a pretty decent defense.

Colloquialism is one of my favourite words, along with vernacular. I just assumed people would attack more obvious areas of my diagnosis.

That should send the bungletrain off of its rails.

It appears that you were correct. The bungletrain appears to have derailed on the mainline.

**iceleliewBync** · 08-21-2012, 06:57 PM

It's ridiculous that anyone thinks it's spelt rediculous.
