Not in Merriam Webster, nor in OED. What sort of vernacular dictionary is
this?!

I wonder if he would know enough to spell English with a capital. The
fact is that people often do not speak in complete sentences with the
most effective grammar and impeccable choices of words.

Frankly, I could care less.

I could care less as well. The whole thing seems pathetic.

I don't understand. What's wrong with what he said?

WTF?

My dictionary has "stupidest" in it!

SHould his proteges make it to the pros, his example will make them better

being sarcastic)

Guess that makes me stupidest... None of my dictionaries have it and we
were drilled in school, since the word came up often, that correct usage
was "most stupid". My hunch, language has changed and "stupidest", like
"ain't", has become accepted. Now, I want to separate myself from my
Commander in Chief. I am admitting I made a mistake, that things changed
since I went to school, and that my suppositions were contradicted by
further evidence. Damn, wouldn't it be nice to have someone at the helm
do as much where lives were being wasted?

To set the record straighter, I knew that - that's why I used it here.

One of the few times that I've used it, but I have a brother - who
knows better, but likes to irritate people on general principles -
that has used it for the best part of five decades.

I plan to put it on his tombstone if no one with better judgment is
around to object.
