Um no, think about it. Saying I could give a crap less is preposterous, because it implies that you DO care about the subject, when that is opposite of the meaning of the true idiom.

Saying "I could give a crap less" is slightly more preposterous than saying "I couldn't give a crap less." "I couldn't care less" has the advantage of being both logical and unridiculous-sounding.

15% is not generosity, it is understood. If the service is bad, 10%, if its good, the ceiling is the limit.

15%+ is understood for decent service. For substandard service, I'll pay what I want. I like to have fun with it. E.g., if a waitress takes too long to bring the check, I'll wait until the time it's taking has crossed over into "way too long," then I'll start knocking off 1% every 30 seconds. Perfomance incentives.

Youve obviously never worked for tips.

Hell no, tip-based jobs are for morons who don't realize how stingy people are.
