estar para mierdas

Spanish to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
Buenas noches,

Ustedes me podrían ayudar a traducir "estaba para mierdas" en la siguiente oración, por favor?

Oración: "El licor lo había comprado Juan, pero en este instante ninguno de los dos estaba para mierdas de quién había comprado qué."

Contexto:esta oración se encuentra en cuento que trata sobre viejos amigos que realizan una fiesta para reecontrarse nuevamente después de la universidad.

Muchas gracias

to give a shit

creo que se puede mantener el "concepto"

"The liquor was bought by John, but at this moment neither of them was in the mood to give a shit about who had bought what".

neither of them porque parece que el contexto deja claro que son dos

neither of the two friends para precisarlo

give a damn (as in, "in that moment, nether of them could give a damn about who had bought what."

This seems to me like an idiomatic option, but it takes some semantic liberties. You could also say, "could give a shit," but that seems too vulgar (though I don't know the whole context, so I can't say for sure).

Give a damn definition: "to care at all about someone or something —used in negative statements"
Example sentence:

He doesn't give a damn what people think about him.
