Same could be said for Sarah Silverman.

"I could care less"

Why do people say this instead of the usual (to me), and at least meaningful: "I couldn't care less"?

Ballard · « **Reply #17 on:** 14 Apr 2009, 15:18 »

You fucks have made it 17 posts without "no homo"

Shame on you.

MadassAlex · « **Reply #18 on:** 14 Apr 2009, 15:19 »

I don't hear that very often.

Ballard · « **Reply #19 on:** 14 Apr 2009, 15:22 »

I can't decide if it's worse when used seriously (way to go brosephs) or "ironically" (I want to cum on your face so you can lick it up. No homo!)

I take issue with two things here. A) The person is either an ignorant fuck or thinks pretending to be an ignorant fuck is funny B) They are implying that there is something inherently wrong with homo. Homo is totally cool guys, what the fuck?

ETA: really? lucky you

tania · « **Reply #28 on:** 14 Apr 2009, 16:27 »

similar to that, "when i was your age."

also, not really phrases i guess but a pet peeve of mine lately is when people take words/grammar and alter them so that they are no longer real words/grammar. like "i is confuzzled" instead of "i am confused". that's not cute anymore when you're an adult! speak real english!

The death penalty should be meted out for people who say "hecka".

Yes, people say "hecka".

Scandanavian War Machine · « **Reply #32 on:** 14 Apr 2009, 16:41 »

what if you use it...i can't believe i'm going to say this...ironically?

the reason i ask is because my friends and i coined the phrase "hella artistic" to refer to that stuff that people make to look artistic when really it just sucks (usually in the form of photos or other similar types of art). we would say "whoa, that's hella artistic" meaning "that's not artistic at all and the person that made it is a tool"
sometimes we'll even add a "bro" or "dawg" at the end to really hammer home how not-artistic something is.

we're kind of assholes.

"beg the question"

Seriously, society, if you don't know how to use this proper, just don't. Although I think I'm fighting a losing battle here because its misuse is spreading from everyday usage and into the media. It happened on the goddamned BBC news. Shit.

Hey fuck you notice that I did not put any killing orders for use of "hella". It is a hella legit word.

Yeah hella is totally fine. Hecka is pretty awful.

"For all intensive purposes."

I guess its not really a stupid phrase so much as a commonly misused/spelled phrase.

It kind of bothers me when people can't express liking something without referring to it as the "best _____ ever".
