"I don't fucking care" doesn't need context. It is fairly unambiguous. lumberjack_jeff Sep 2013 #34

I don't know if anyone has noticed Warren DeMontague Aug 2013 #8

Good idea. Probably for the best to wait it out on the sidelines. nomorenomore08 Aug 2013 #9

Not nearly everyone. RiffRandell Aug 2013 #10

You mean, without the "nearly" qualifier? You may be right, actually... nomorenomore08 Aug 2013 #11
