Want to know what bugs me?

People who say "I could care less" when what they really intend to say is "I couldn't care less."

Think about that.

Sometimes, yes. Sometimes, no. It bugs me so much, I often correct people when they SAY it. "Oh, you're going try to AND do it at the same time? Wow, you're amazing." (Because, yes, I am a smart-ass.)

I know it's rather accepted as all right speech - either written or spoken, like "gonna" - but it still bugs me. Major peeve-age.
