Ok, so I just wanted to clarify something, and see if I am correct and incorrect.

I know the difference between "I couldn't care less," and "I could care less". Both are actually wrong and right, but "I couldn't care less," is more used in grammar. Why do individuals get so offended when occasionally I express "I could care less"? I mean I do care, but I care in a less manner instead of not caring that implies I don't care at all. It is impossible if you couldn't care because you wouldn't care at all instead of less.

Agh!! So annoying, please tell me if I'm right or not??

You are right.
People get offended because when you say I could care less it sounds like you don't care at all but you do. When you say I could care less to someone they don't realize the difference between could and couldn't.
