Re: What grammatical errors really piss you off?

I get annoyed by people who harp on the "I could care less crowd."
It's clearly a sarcastic expression, much along the lines of "I should be so lucky!"

It's NOT a sarcastic statement. When someone says I could care less, they do not realize they actually are saying the opposite of what they mean. For there to be sarcasm intended, the person must understand what they are saying.
How is "I should be so lucky" sarcastic?
