I think calling the rat's ass fat only adds insult to injury.

You know I never thought about that. I certainly wouldn’t want to hurt their little rat feelings. However there is no injury because “I couldn’t give a fat rat’s ass” means they get to keep their chubby little derrieres.

Well, maybe you HAVE a rat's ass but you just can't give it.

You could say "that is all"

I grew up with it being 'for all intents and purposes'. I've never heard it as 'intensive purposes'. That makes no sense. The former makes sense, but it's not a frequently used phrase anymore, is it?

For the record, you are very, very strange. But it's a likeable strange, not a serial killer kind of strange.
