George Tucker, a Virginian/Judge poet in 1790, is credited with the first recorded instance of the phrase "I don't give a fu**"
A 1790 poem by George Tucker has a father upset with his bookish son say "I'd not give [a fuck] for all you've read". Originally printed as "I'd not give ------ for all you've read", scholars agree that the words "a fuck" were removed, making the poem the first recorded instance of the now-common phrase "I don't give a fuck".[18] @Curionic
