Equivalent expression to: "I don't give a f***"

Question

Is there something in Mandarin like "I don't give a f***", something that expresses the same sense of "I don't care" but with more force.

@NullUserException: nice, can we put it the chinese into the passive voice and get a nice translation of that :p — jsj, Dec 15 '11 at 13:00
Sorry to use Chinese. 本来“屌”和“鸟”是同音的（均为“屌”的音），后来人们觉得这样太不好了，就把鸟的读音变成niao了。@macskuz所以其实“关我鸟事”也是“关我屌事”的意思。《水浒传》里面经常用“鸟”来代替“屌”。 — zsf222, May 21 '14 at 07:12
@zsh222 Wow this explains a lot, and I just checked Old Chinese pronunciation and thinking you are right... (鳥 *teəw by 周法高 for example) — Violapterin, May 27 '17 at 12:06
For the original question, 关我屁事 is closest in my mind XDD (In Taiwan 干我屁事 is more common) — Violapterin, May 27 '17 at 12:06

People in NanJing like this expression,but it's sounds a little vulgar. – Huang Dec 15 '11 at 04:47
yes, 屌 means cock,but a HongKong famous singer named ZhouJieLun(周杰伦) use this word very often,many many young peope follow him in mainland of China,so it is used very common in all China area. – macskuz Dec 15 '11 at 05:16
ZhouJieLun is a Taiwanese singer. The 屌 is used slightly differently and with border context in Hong Kong than in mainland China. – KMC Dec 15 '11 at 06:10
@Huang Yes, I live in Nanjing. That's really a daily use phase for every Nanjinger. – Alex Chen Dec 15 '11 at 07:49

A direct translation would be:"我不在乎".

If you want to make an emphasis or show your anger, you could say:"爱咋咋的". "爱咋咋的" is more commonly used in Northern area, which literally means "[do] anything you like to[, I don't care.]", you can also simply say "随便”.
