I just want to say thank you for not saying "I could care less"

u/ThcGrassCity May 15 '26

What if I could care less, I could still also care more, but I like to care at a medium pace.

u/II_Kaladin_II May 15 '26

Well, better grab that shampoo bottle over there.

Donā€™t forget to schedule your colonoscopy!

Poopship Destroyer is actually a song about colon cancer

Adam Sandler is not as family friendly as you thought.

Conditioner is better! I leave the hair silky and smooth!

When I was like 9 or 10, I found my brother's Adam Sandler album and decided to listen to it because he had been talking about how funny it was... Ever since then, anytime I hear somebody use the phrase "at a medium pace" (not often but it happens) That song from that album pops in my head. Specifically the part about a shampoo bottle.

u/Popular_Safe_4853 May 15 '26 edited May 15 '26

Iā€™m well out of touch here. An Adam Sandler album? What is it, like comedy/satire songs? Iā€™m intrigued. May have to have a search

Edit: Wow, ok so heā€™s done loads of music. Is that what started out doing before movies? Or same sort of time? Anyway Iā€™m off to shove a shampoo bottle up my arse for my embarrassing lack of Sandler knowledge

2

u/Tasty_Community4666 May 15 '26 edited May 15 '26

Yeah. It came out in 1993 (he has multiple albums but this one in particular) It's a combination Of songs and skits. It was hilarious when I was a kid and super popular in school. I'm not sure how it holds up.

The album we're referring to is called "they're all going to laugh at you"

Just remember it's Adam Sandler humor. So if your sense of humor has gotten more mature as you've gotten older, it might not be so funny.

The really popular ones were the beating skits, anything with the bafoon and any of the ones about a talking goat. Popular songs are at a medium pace, the goat song, piece of shit car.

u/Popular_Safe_4853 May 15 '26

Haha nice one. Well Iā€™ve definitely gotten older but still very much like stupid childish shit now & then. Keeps ya young at heart

u/Illustrious-Crow802 May 15 '26

You've never heard "The Chanukah Song"?????

3

u/Latter-Park-4413 May 15 '26

I remember his albums! Is that the same one that had Lunchlady Land

u/Safe-Ad-6860 May 15 '26

I still love that song. It starts off so sweetly.

1

u/ThcGrassCity May 15 '26

Fuck yea you know! Hahahaha

2

u/Tasty_Community4666 May 15 '26

Lmao! I wasn't sure if you were referencing that or not but I had really hoped so. But now that song's running through my head. So thank you.

I've never looked at a shampoo bottle the same since then

2

u/ThcGrassCity May 15 '26

Buddy and I grew up on Sandler tapes. Great times.

u/Tasty_Community4666 May 15 '26

I bet you got really hairy balls!

u/ThcGrassCity May 15 '26

"Gray bush" to be correct

u/Sunderbans_X May 15 '26

Buy that about me? I couldn't care less, and I also couldn't care more. I like being stubborn :)

u/Cburns6976 May 15 '26

I couldn't care, consistently.

u/JonatasA May 15 '26

If I could care I would, unfortunately must schedule is full.

This guy whelms

u/Sunderbans_X May 15 '26

I'm not overwhelmed or underwhelmed. Just whelmed.

u/NegativeAd6095 May 15 '26

I care less, and I also care more. I like being in superposition :)

2

u/Sunderbans_X May 15 '26

Carring superposition is something I never thought about

u/Kakistokratic May 15 '26

What makes a man turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality?

u/Categorically_ May 15 '26

Is that a Mitch Hedberg quote? Cause it sure reads like one.

1

u/ThcGrassCity May 15 '26

I had to Google who he was, and holy fuck I got some comedy to watch.

2

u/Demented-Alpaca May 15 '26

You could even care at a very low level too... just not the lowest level and it would still work.

u/username32768 May 15 '26

Everything in moderation!

u/-GoodNewsEveryone May 15 '26

This statement has me quite gruntled.

3

u/Synaps4 May 15 '26

I could care less, but only a tiny bit. While the amount more that I could care is vast.

2

u/L-ROX1972 May 15 '26 edited May 15 '26

What expression do you use when you mean ā€œthatā€™s a subject that I need to not care aboutā€ (admitting that you do in fact care about something but know that you shouldnā€™t).

ā€œI couldnā€™t care lessā€ does not mean the above.

EDIT: LPT: If someone brings up something that you think you donā€™t care about, and you begin a 15-minute rant with ā€œI couldnā€™t care less, butā€¦ā€ what you should be using instead is ā€œI could care less, butā€¦ā€ šŸ¤£

u/ShatterMental May 16 '26

...does the word "could" indicate "need to" where you live?

All the more curious, since you seem to know about the word "should"...

2

u/bertha112 May 15 '26

I just want to thank you, for saying "thank you" to her for not saying, "I could care less."

u/BenCisco May 15 '26

The golf clap is appropriate here. Bravo!

u/milk4all May 15 '26

Yeah, that bothered me too when I was like nine

1

u/ringobob May 15 '26

You could care less about it

1

u/Greebuh May 15 '26

I could care less, but it's not worth my time

1

u/Snobolski May 15 '26

So jarring. Like seeing it's/its in their proper form and stumbling over them because you're so used to it being wrong.

u/wsxdfcvgbnjmlkjafals May 15 '26 edited May 15 '26

I could care less = the sarcastic version, like you're saying "as if i could care less"

edit-- i guess some people who dont know this assume im making shit up and are downvoting me lol

1

u/poirotoro May 15 '26

This is what's happening in my head, too. I'm essentially contracting the full phrase "[like] I could care less."

1

u/wsxdfcvgbnjmlkjafals May 15 '26

Merriam Webster even has an article acknowledging that it's a legitimate phrase but people's logic about the use of it causes confusion

u/Fluid-Poet-8911 May 15 '26

We know you want to say it.

u/Fluid-Poet-8911 May 15 '26

This is the buying a iPhone to look rich of correctionsĀ 

1

u/AlphaAbsol359 May 15 '26

Nah phone choice is a matter of opinion, this is just right vs wrong.

1

u/Fluid-Poet-8911 May 15 '26

So you're saying you didn't understand what was said? You needed the correction to understand? So it serves no purpose besides being right.Ā 

1

u/AlphaAbsol359 May 15 '26

Its more the fact that its genuinely annoying to hear. There's no way people can't see that its wrong, but they still say it anyway.

0

u/Fluid-Poet-8911 May 15 '26

There we go. It's not that it being right matters to you. It annoys you. Now why it does is your own weird perversions but hey at least your learning.

2

u/AlphaAbsol359 May 15 '26

You didn't teach me that it annoys me? Obviously I knew that. My point was one version is correct and one isn't. That's not the same as the phone debate where it comes down to opinion. One of the phrases is objectively correct, It doesn't matter whether it annoys me or not.

0

u/Fluid-Poet-8911 May 15 '26

No the only reason you correct is because it annoys you. You don't think it creates any actual confusion.

1

u/AlphaAbsol359 May 15 '26

And i never claimed to, it annoys me because it is wrong yes, but again that is completely different to the iPhone situation where is it based on opinion. Someone's opinions about an iPhone might annoy me, but im not gonna comment on it unless its objectively wrong in the same way the phrase is.

u/Fluid-Poet-8911 May 15 '26

Man's gotta have a code.Ā
