The phrase is "I couldn't care less." Not, and this is important, not, not, NOT "I could care less." If you COULD care less, it means you do actually give a damn about the subject of your conversation. STOP FUCKING SAYING IT. STOP FUCKING WRITING IT.

This has been your grammar rant for today.

I say, "I could care less."

I follow it up with, "...but not very much less and I'd really have to try."

Love,

I had someone point out righteously once that they say "As if I could care less." Which is also fine, but you gotta include those crucial two words. Or, in your case, the end sentence. :)

cheers,
Phil
