I Could Care Less about the Stanley Cup Playoffs
Earlier today, my wife mentioned that the Stanley Cup playoffs were starting tonight.
She is a hockey fan, specifically the New York Rangers.
I am most assuredly not a follower of the sport.
Upon observing my lack of enthusiasm, she said, "You could care less about the Stanley Cup Playoffs."
I corrected her, and said, "No, I couldn't care less about the Stanley Cup Playoffs," because this is the proper linguistic formulation to describe supreme apathy.
It turns, as is often the case, she was right, and I was wrong.
There are things that I care about a LOT less than specifically.
The I saw a report about the tweets of Craig Mazin, who was Ted Cruz's roommate in their freshman year at Princeton.
He has made a bit of a hobby tweeting about how Cruz was back in the day, and it is clear that he has never been a fan of his.
Well, in response to accounts of Cruz' running the defense of the Texas' ban on "Sexual Appliances", Mr. Mazin tweeted the following:
Ted Cruz thinks people don't have a right to "stimulate their genitals." I was his college roommate. This would be a new belief of his.— Craig Mazin (@clmazin) April 13, 2016
Sharon was right, I was wrong, I care about this a LOT less than the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
I really did not need that image in my head.
