Career

ca⋅reer {kuh-reer}

–noun
1. A long period of servitude in exchange for operating capital and the promise of financial security and much needed health care coverage on release; golden handcuffs.
2. The mistakenly desired outcome of 16+ years of education.
3. An affliction whose symptoms are loss of life & liberty, general purpose misery, and resentment towards those who are unaffected.
4. A euphemism for 'professional labour camp'; these 'camps' are required to support capitalism's unsustainable drive for never ending growth.
Each of the professions means a prejudice. The necessity for a career forces every one to take sides. We live in the age of the overworked, and the under-educated; the age in which people are so industrious that they become absolutely stupid.

I couldn't care less

The classier (and cleaner) way to say "I don't give a fuck", "I don't give a shit", "I don't give a crap", "I don't give a damn", etc.

(Do NOT confuse it with I could care less. If you *could* care less, it means that you can reduce the amount of fucks you give!)

extremely careless

Regular citizen definition: grossly negligent (i.e. criminal)

Hillary Clinton definition: presidential
Person 1: Dude, the FBI Director just said that Hillary Clinton was extremely careless in handling highly classified information. But I guess they're not recommending any charges be made.

Person 2: Extremely careless - doesn't that basically mean she was grossly negligent? I thought that gross negligence in transmitting classified information is prosecutable under the Espionage Act. Sounds like she should be considered a criminal.

Person 1: Nah bro, that just means she's considered presidential material.

Duty of Care

Such a fickle thing.
"We are bound by a duty of care."

That an institution is allowed to have such an overpowering jurisdiction on the life events of an individual. An institution that will not follow up on the well being of general civilians, of children unencumbered by the proceedings of the system, or of those acting audaciously outside of their normal behaviours.
An institution claims to act on their "Duty of Care" only when it serves them to do so, only when it aids their motive.
