If you think of "I could care less." as being sarcastic, then it makes sense. Otherwise not so much.

Yes, ending a sentence in a preposition is wrong.

I knew a guy once who ended a sentence with a preposition. He's dead now.

I was going to post both of these!
How about a combonation of the two: "You know what I'm sayin"
This usually follows a completly simple, or stupid, statement. "I like bananas, you kow what I'm sayin". Yes you simpleton, I know what you are saying.

Haha! There's a 24-hour diner in my girlfriend's neighborhood. It has a big professionally-made sign saying that it is "Alway's Open."
Argh! Even the U.S. Constitution got this wrong: "... insure domestic Tranquility"

As bad as people saying OMG out loud.I've heard people say "El oh el!" before, and it made me want to punch them in the throat.
bwahahaha
What about the guy on the mound?Pitcher... if you're not talking about something that holds water, it's picture.
God Damnit, my dad says this (along with too many others) on Facebook constantly. The tone they use makes it come off as matter of fact, as if they just proved something or zinged you"Im just sayin"
You know what I'm sayin'? NO I couldn't possibly comprehend that idea you just attempted to portray. My brother uses this and I love replying just this."You know" drives me batty. Maybe I do, maybe I don't.
"So I have this thing on my penis, you know."
No, I don't and I don't need to know about. STFU on both counts.
Only thing worse than saying these things in speech, is typing them wrong in text. WTF does ROLFL stand for? Are you Rolling on the Le Floor Laughing? Are you French!?lol rolfl
