- I slap my balls on it (French)
If that one sounds weird, the translation misses the point that it's a masturbation reference. It should be "i beat my balls to it". Compare with "je m'en branle", litterally "i jack to it"

I think it was a translation of « je m’en bats les couilles »
(Which would translate more to "I slap my balls OF it")
Ball grammar today… who would’ve thunk 😅
I'd say french je m'en bat les couilles is technically "I slap my balls with it"
When I talk about preserving Linguistic Diversity, this is what I mean.
I mean a kilogram of shit is a big shit. Googling says an average shit is half a kilogram (one pound). This is interesting shit.
It's me sausage actually. And it doesn't mean no fucks given, rather it is all the same to me.
Not really, that would translate to "Es ist ich-wurst"
Swearing in Greece and across most of the whole region is hilarious. The actual "I don't care"/"zero fucks given" phrase is to write something on your balls or dick.
So many sayings are mother/whore/balls/dick based - not offensive phrases, just common sayings.
Danish: "Det rager mig en papand"
Lit. "That fondles me (like) a cardboard duck."
It concerns me (like) a cardboard-duck. (Danish)
I slap my balls with it will be my catchphrase for 2025
It is "I slap my balls ON it", you frenchist
In Germany we also have "das geht mir am Arsch vorbei", which translates to "that goes across my ass". It's the more vulgar version of "ist mir wurst" or "it's sausage to me"
I offer "me vale madre" or "me vale verga" n Mexican Spanish.
The first one is weird, madre in this context both does and doesn't mean "mother". It's closer to to the mother in "motherfucker" than it is to "I fucked your mom".
They both mean "I don't give a shit" although with different flavors of vulgarity.
The second one is literally "this means dick to me"
That "Spanish" saying is a Spain saying. Things get more colorful in the new world.
Dutch and Greek go unnecessarily hard. Yeah, "I slap my balls on it" is good, but it really does just have the same vibe as "I don't give a fuck." The Greek make it poetic and the Dutch add that specific scientific component that give it that pop.
Czech (pretty much also Slovak):
In portuguese it would be "tou me pouco cagando" which mean "I'm pooping a little" and I think that it is beautiful.
Polish would probably be "Mieć wyjebane", which comes from "Mieć wyjebane jajca". It is also balls-related but more like "I have my balls out for that".
"It doesn't fuck a dick to me"
Italian
That is "non me ne fotte un cazzo"/"non me ne frega un cazzo" I suppose. There are so many variations, like "me ne sbatto il cazzo" (also "I jerk off to it").
My personal favorite anyway is relates to this, bit with more subtext, quite used in Rome: "e ar popolo?" ("and to the people...?") which implies "e ar popolo de Milazzo?" ("and to the people from Milazzo?"), which has the riming rethorical answer "non jene frega n'cazzo" (same as the first). I love it because it's both ironical, passive-aggressive, dismissive and (somewhat) vulgar at the same time.
"det skiter jag högaktningsfullt i" - with care and respect, i am shitting into it.
"det ger jag inte ett korvöre/ruttet lingon för" - i would not give a sausage cent/rotten lingonberry for it.
"det ger jag själva fan i" - i give satan himself.
