1.  It's COULDN'T care less.  If you COULD care less, then there are things that are even less important than whatever it is that you're trying to say you don't care about it :)  Thanks to KFAN's Paul Allen for being the only radio broadcaster that consistently says this the "right" way, btw.

2. Re: exact same - nice one, I'll have to add that one to my repertoire.

I am having a real stupid moment because I can't think of anything stupid to say. Have at it folks :-)

Is it:  "I could care less."  Or....."I couldn't care less".  I think the latter in almost all cases.

Isn't "the exact same thing" redundant?  If it is exact, then it is the same.  Right?

"I could care less" basically means you care that you don't care which would defeat the purpose of not caring in the first place.

Comprende?

Cate   That's like saying "That was fun let's do it again".  You can't do it again, but you can do something similar.

Why is it when one goes to a provider rate page and sees an "off the clock rate" right below it or right next to it she states something like 4 - 6 hours?

Isn't the purpose of an "off the clock" rate not to keep track of time?

Why do providers state on their websites "I am not a clock watcher" but please respect my time?

Does this mean I can set an hour appointment and stay two or set two and stay four?

My interpretation with that statement is that a provider wants a guy to leave when his time is up. Is it so difficult for a provider to kick a guy out when his time is up that she wants him to leave on his own? I mean the provider is offering a service here. Is it not her responsibility to keep track of time?

By no means do I engage in behavior that stiffs a provider of her time. These are just my observances over a period of time that have puzzled me if not amused moi.

Some providers are afraid to appear rude and ask you to leave.  They don't want to risk unwarranted bad reviews.....and, yes, there are a few guys who would do just that.  

Just as men expect the ladies to be respectful of their time, so do the ladies expect it of the men.

It's a gross overgeneralization but I think women may have some genetic disposition to masochistic over-packing. I can easily get a weeks worth of outfits into a carry-on bag or a saddle bag, including extra shoes while my wife, RIP, tended to pack eveything except the wallpaper.

I pride myself on being the lightest female packer in the world.  I went to Europe (during a cold season) for 2 weeks and carried on.  I'll add that this was BEFORE the checked bags fee.  I just do it out of the disgust for having too many outfits to choose from.  

I have never and will never check a bag.  The funniest things I see are the people who go to Mexico for a week or two and need to check a bag.  What do you need to do that for?  When I go to Mexico for a couple of weeks I need: 8 bikinis/swimsuits, 2 pairs of flip flops, 1 pair of sunglasses, travel size toiletries (or buy them when I get there), my Kindle and 7 sundresses.  It's Mexico people! lol

Ginger can go on with her bad self but this girl would rather visit a laundry mat while globe-trotting :-)

I believe it was a musical version of "Hamlet" set to, appropriately enough for this forum, the music of "Carmen."

The Bible tells us to judge not, lest we be judged, but where's the fun in that? The best place for free-lance judging is the grocery store line where you can sum up a stranger's life by the contents of their basket.

Behind me the other day was a gaunt fellow whose T-shirt boasted of a marathon run up Everest and back; his cart filled to the brim with so many leafy greens I expected a parrot to fly out when he started unloading his basket.

You'd probably scowl at my cart, piled with my montly supply of idividually wrapped ribeyes and porterhouses and NY strips and looking like it'd be enough to reconstruct a cow, and think I know how you're going to die: Beeficide.

As a nod to health, next time I'll go with the choice instead of the prime.

Why is that it's SO HARD for people to reply to the message that they are intending to reply to?  These discussion boards are laid out in outline form (unless you change it) which we all learned in elementary school - and yet it's nearly impossible sometimes to figure out whose comment people are responding to.

For example, say someone makes a post asking what everyone likes to have for breakfast.  Several people reply, so there are now a bunch of replies.  The outline format SHOULD look something like this, with all of the responses to the OP's question neatly indented and lined up off of THAT question, like this:

what do you like to have for breakfast?
      eggs
          ohhh...cheesy eggs!
      cereal
          yeah I like cereal too! (eom)
               No way, cereal sucks!
      Oatmeal
      malt-o-meal
           Really? they still make malt-o-meal?
                Yes, and speaking of malt-o-meal - Anyone TOFFT on that new chick?
                      Check out all the Tineye hits, dude!

You get the point...simple, right?  So why does it always end up like this????

what do you like to have for breakfast?
      eggs
          ohhh...cheesy eggs!
               cereal
                   No way, cereal sucks!
      yeah I like cereal too! (eom)
          Oatmeal
              malt-o-meal
       Really? they still make malt-o-meal?
           Yes, and speaking of malt-o-meal - Anyone TOFFT on that new chick?
               French Toast!

Drives me crazy...

Went to Fat Jack's, buy my drink, go into the room where dancers 'should' be entertaining. I sit down and the DJ/Bouncer comes over to me and says it's a $7 cover. Ok no big deal, but the $7 is not for entertainment it is merely the fee to sit in that room. I was informed by the bouncer the only way girls will go on stage is if you sit at the tip rail and pay them to be on stage. So, why charge a cover for no entertainment? NOT TO MENTION....the dancers have to PAY TO WORK THERE!!!
Bad business model!

Is that there is a little off-sale on there that sells toys and porn.  Or that's what was in there the last time I was there 3-4 years ago.  

Now THAT is the only good thing about that place.  I think all establishments should sell booze, sex toys and porn though so I'm a little bias...lol
