y'know, people really seem shocked when i tell them about my thing with bears. i get it all the time, when i'm out at dinner, when i'm walking down the street: people always asking me, "how can you possibly not care about bears? what's wrong with you?" and i just tell them "you know what? i just don't. i don't care about bears. to be totally honest, i don't get why YOU'RE all so obsessed with them. they're just mammals. you know what? i don't care what you people say. i don't care about that OR bears. because you're all just the same to me. materialistic, easily manipulated sheep. you're just cogs in the bear machine. i'm choosing to do something just a little bit different. a little bit out there. not the same thing everyone else is doing. and you can never seem to appreciate that. any of you. i'm just over here, specifically not caring about bears, and i think that's important work. so get over it."

i had assumed this is why crut revived the thread.
what i dislike most about the ice bucket challenge is that i feel like a terrible human being for not caring. at the same time i don't want to be cajoled into caring. someone nominated me the other day and every other post on FB is someone doing the IBC and nominating their friends and I just want it to blow over so i don't feel like a complete shit for not getting involved, but honestly...
it goes without saying that there's nothing wrong with people doing sponsored events to raise awareness for charity; it's a good cause and i'm not criticising anyone who takes part. But it's the 'chain letterness' and the organised fun-ness of the challenge - the idea that if you're nominated you HAVE to do it or else you're a heartless cowardly fun-hater. fuck it, i'll prob donate something all the same, if only to feel better about not dumping ice water on my head and uploading the film for everyone to see. and then what? all I'll have done is bought myself off. i haven't 'cared', i've simply bought a 'get out of guilt free' card for my conscience. meanwhile, if everyone on FB is donating to ALS doesn't that mean a lot of contributions that would otherwise go to other charities during this period get reallocated?

also i've never cared for flowers, how they look and especially how they smell. they all smell of grass to me, barring a few which smell like a sneeze against a mirror.

xp otm.
i do not care at all about haute cuisine or fine dining or any such bullshit. seems so wasteful and extravagant. pretty much all of my favorite meals either been cooked at home by family, friends, or me, or have been in inexpensive ethnic restaurants

saying that you don't care about something always means you don't think it's worth very much, right. which is basically defensive posturing, like you feel a need to distance yourself from that which you just don't care about, which really means you aren't actually very far away from it, so you do care about it, as something that makes you uncomfortable enough you feel release by saying you don't. this question and thread invites us to lie. what a sad dad game. i hate this thread.

still don't care about les claypool however

i've never met him and likely never will. i care about leses in the abstract though.
― mattresslessness, Tuesday, 26 August 2014 20:33 (nine years ago) link
there are things I don't care about, I'm sure, but I'm hard-pressed to say what they are, since, not caring about them, they don't occupy any space in my head

this is otm despite the fact that i am posting in this thread. if i "really" didn't care about it i wouldn't think to post it. also i guess i am a "sad dad" in this game.

i am going to start using that phrase, "sad dad"
i thought this thread was a joke at first
― linda cardellini (zachlyon), Tuesday, 26 August 2014 21:14 (nine years ago) link
admittedly i care a lot about demi lovato's wonderful song "really don't care"
i am in favor of fine dining (real fine dining with white tablecloths and multiple courses and formalwear) although i've never really partaken. one day i'd like to make a serious investment in the kind of meal/service i'll remember for years.

sadwiches and other "clever" wordisms that pop up in articles other people post on my FB page...I just don't care enough for your new word mash-up to actually read the article.

It seems like the older I get, the less I care about other people's (casual) opinions on subjective things (entertainment, art, music, which side should the toilet paper be on, etc.).
Also, it was such a long time ago since I cared for what 'famous'/celebrities or even semi-famous people do or say. It's rare these days, I guess
