Things You Just Don't Care About

you’re like the left wing version of those watering the tree of liberty guys

that poem at the end of the scotophobic tree waterer thing is really something:

The Scottish people is rejected,
The world besides will be accepted.
Jews, Infidels and Hottentots
We welcome here – but not the Scots.

who even remembers there was scot hate in this country? seems like such a quaint hate at this point.

The Irish hadn't arrived yet, that explains it.

During the evening celebrations, the Bostonians toasted to ‘A Repeal of the Stamp Act, and a perpetual Itching without the Benefit of Scratching to its Friends’. This was a reference to the notorious ‘Scottish Itch’, the common stereotype being that dirty, lice-ridden Scots were constantly scratching themselves.

*tries not to scratch*

look even i cant believe im doing this but

Welch is also known for abolishing the nine-layer management hierarchy and bringing a sense of informality to the company.[17]

During the early 1980s he was dubbed "Neutron Jack" (in reference to the neutron bomb) for eliminating employees while leaving buildings intact

It's not your audience, deems.

i know, I know

Eurovision

Lots of people always seem to be very keen to talk about how uninterested they are in Eurovision

I can do without hearing the fake poptimist from The Tax Payer's Alliance so very interesting take on the extravaganza, though. But that does serve me right for watching the wretched Marr Show.

cmon now

I'd say I'm genuinely uninterested. I'm only aware of its existence because I see people tweeting about it, but don't know where I'd even go to watch it if I wanted to.

I guess I am mostly perplexed by some of my friends, who don't appear to engage with any other sort of harmless campy events, completely lose their shit whenever Eurovision rolls around.

maybe they like Eurovision but not any other campy events

I have a deep-seated affection for Eurovision specifically. I just really enjoy loads of the aspects of it, the campiness not necessarily being top of the list

The camp aspects are well down the list, if they're on it at all.

the eurovision has always been shite and it having been embraced as camp shite recently doesnt make anything """""""""""""""problematic""""""""""""""""""""

just because jedward never win

"gammon"

it has been done to death, but anything that winds up "puce-faced social reactionaries" to the point they look a deeper shade of puce than Terry Yorath can't be all bad.

friends with right-wing brain worms

"friends"

Worms dont deserve abby normal’s rotten brain

man, totally Roseanne! i mean i liked that old show as much anyone but i keep seeing her name pop up in stories/articles and i really don't care. or even have much of an opinion. when i heard about the new show i had 0% curiosity. i'm not a reunion fan. i did watch the gilmore girls one.

"controversial" news about roseanne and kanye....such a snooze.

especially when i read stuff like this:

"Trump administration moves to allow hunters to lure brown bears with bacon, doughnuts"

see this is why this thread is so needed. because i don't have to go on the roseanne thread and be a bore and be all like "why do people even care about this?" "This is dumb." "why do you guys even care." "this is boring." "trump is luring brown bears with bacon don't you even care?"

im starting to unfollow journalists on social media, deleted various politics bookmarks on ilx. i can't really make room for trump in my brain anymore. i feel so much better.

i guess it is not as much as "i just don't care" than it is "there is little i can do to change any of this so why am i devoting mental and emotional energy to this schmuck"
