Cute as a button - Buttons aren't cute?
Happy as Larry - Who's Larry?
Cheap as Chips - They aren't particularly cheap

Anyone else have any totally stupid sayings which don't actually make sense? Where do they come from?

It is "I couldn't care less" - the other is just people being completely retarded.

That's the point!

If it's the "same difference" it's exactly the same

Murf will back me up on 1 mate that used to say "6 and 2 7's" though which always made us laugh

I always thought of "I could care less" as half of a sarcastic remark, as in, "I could care less, but it would be difficult."
