By my pre-coffee count, 19 syllables of indifference... a lot of words to say “meh” :)

"Je m'en fous" is the short version. Using a longer version is obviously done for fun, and to tell at great lengths how much you don't care. Usually people will spice it up with a version of their own to add to the comical effect.

Gallic shrug

Why talk when you can physically convey the idea. I must say that this discussion makes me somewhat uncomfortable with the centrality of not caring in my culture.
