Until further notice
I prefer the VG Cats take on it, actually.

This story is very easily exploitable for comedy, it seems.
So that's what this does
I have a modest proposal. Can we stop using both phrases, please? Neither is particularly good.

I could care less about your proposal.
I'm reading this because it's interesting. I think. Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot, over.
I couldn't. I think. Wait, maybe I could? I don't even know anymore...
Did you know this section has a character limit?
Oh sweet jesus embedding works again.
They do have medals for almost, and they're called silver!
Absolutely no relation to NLK
Is it just me, or does Randall alternate between being anal about word choices and expressions and mocking those who are?
Dopants: He meant what he said and he said what he meant, a Ninety is faithful 100%.
Who isnt?
What Randall isnt taking into account, of course, is that we dont want to feel a connection to just anyone- merely those people who share our priorities regarding various values, including the value of precision and objectivity in word phrasing.
It's not a checklist, it's a test.
So that's what this does
I suggest dropping the word "less" from both phrases. Thus you get "I could care" implying that you don't currently and "I couldn't care" indicating that you don't and never will.
I think the phrase was originally meant to be sarcastic
I like the tiny raised finger in the second panel.
...
Oh good, we have a page on that gesture! I've tried looking it up before, but for such a ubiquitous thing, it's almost never talked about. It's not even on Wikipedia's List of Gestures.
A story: One time when I was five, a lady at the playground asked me how old I was. I held up five fingers on one hand, and the index finger on the other. "Six?" she asked. "No, five," I replied. So she probably was left thinking that I didn't know how to count, but actually I was just making an emphasis finger.
Too old for this
Now the question is, would it be accurate or simply a way to troll people?
Whatever your favourite work is, there is a Vocal Minority that considers it the Worst. Whatever. Ever!.
Did he draw all those boxes out by hand?
Doubtful. I bet he copy pasted and then added randomness.
Apocalypse: Dirge Of Swans.
All I can think is that the candies in the later boxes would've all gone off by the point you reached them.

Wait, does candy ever spoil ?
Worldbuilding is fun, writing is a chore
Lost in Space
Sure. It's organic, sugar-based. It will go rancid after a few months.

Some types last notably longer but still none for that long.
How long would Necco wafers last then?
In my experience, Advent calendars usually have mass produced commercial chocolate, which will last a long time when refrigerated but will still go bad eventually. Not sure what would happen if you freeze it though.
Evidently I do not know what an advent calendar is.
My mother used to get the one with the chocolate, until she found that some of us were opening days early for the chocolate. She then moved to the ones with just the image and Bible verse citation. Unfortunately, that sharply decreased our enthusiasm for opening the days. Although, honestly, these days, I don't know that the chocolate would be much motivation for me. I've lost much of the sweet tooth I had as a child.
I'm familiar with the story because parodies are so ubiquitous. It's kinda cheesy, but I don't think it's excessively so. Basically all it's saying is that faith supports people when they're feeling helpless, which is hardly mindblowing.
