Is this a statement on our society in general? That people could say something so contradictory to what they really mean, all the time, and not even realize it?
I know no one here on gfy would ever mix it up  but just to recap:
"I could care less" = you actually care about it, and you could still care even less if you had to.
"I couldn't care less" = you do not care about it at all and could not possibly care any less about it.

You are right ... this has annoyed me for a while ... maybe it's a regional / country thing ? I am UK based and the phrase "I couldn't care less" has been a common term forever ... "I could care less" just makes the person saying it sound stupid ...
