    While we’re at it, what does “on accident”, and accident isn’t a tangible object, it’s an event.

      Meh, those are very different. “on accident” is technically wrong, but the technically wrong of today is the accepted version of tomorrow. Compare that to “could care less”, which literally means the opposite of what you’re trying to say.
