Things You Just Don't Care About

hmm

Also, some of the maps and diagrams are barely recognisable, showing the most fragmentary knowledge of the UK and RoI.

Not sure why news providers don’t have better cartographical capabilities.

Bagels

Beagles

The Times had an article yesterday on NI and Brexit and how it is affecting M&S deliveries: practically implying lack of access to M&S products is a new measure of humanitarian crisis. I'm beginning to care again- but more about how this issue is being played out in the media.

Redemption arcs

Character arcs generally

kevin hart

people burning books

they don't burn enough authors these days

lol

Whameggedon

Two more cases of Omicron identified, both linked to travel to Southern Africa. One in Camden, other in Wandsworth. U.K. total 11

Really, really don't care

how people heat water

The Epstein/Maxwell/etc trial and conspiracies, mostly because I think to myself, "A bunch of rich and powerful people are sex pests? what else is new, I don't have time for this"

christmas decorations of the rich and powerful

awww that's a good show

the time person of the year award

Yep

baseball statistical records

I couldn't give a toss about what somebody else dreamt about last night. Yeah, I'm sure it was amazing and surreal. Keep that nonsense to yourself.

Anything mark gatiss has ever been involved in

The golden globes. And all other awards shows.

The Matrix. I know this franchise means a lot to a lot of people, so please know that I mean no harm. I saw the first film on opening night, was bored stiff, and have never looked back.

whatever the new show is everyone is talking about, currently Succession

^ currently the Beatles thing

i don't do Spotify or Netflix so all these things just pass me by

(it's mostly a bandwidth thing, both bytes and time)

I haven't used Spotify or Netflix before. I am afraid of my phone and mostly try to ignore it. (I am sorry if my comment on the BIRDS thread was totally irrelevant.)

I think I don't care about what people don't care about but I'm worried that might open some kind of portal to another dimension where everything is controps or something

I think I don't care about what people don't think I don't care about but mostly I try to ignore it.

children's tv released after i was a child
dgaf about what garbage was on disney channel in the 00s

it's always odd how narrow the bands for this are - my brother is two years younger than me and his memories are different from mine (he-man was never a thing for me, for instance)

there is one answer in this thread that is particularly unlikeable, but we are to keep that kind of thing to ourselves, right?

The Rat Pack.

there are two Rat Packs... the original Bogart/Bacall/David Niven one, and then those laddish Las Vegas drunks and that's likely who you're referring to

yeah

There's that rave act that did Searchin' For My Rizla. I care about that

(I'm not sure if I'm afraid of Apple or my phone. The part that is definitely the phone is how it has become an extension of oneself. I am also afraid of how Facebook seems to have invented or marketed all of the programming languages that developers want to learn and use. I think it has been a decade since I stopped buyig from Amazon, but I still need to use AWS at work and probably indirectly at home.)

whether die hard is a christmas movie or not. every year with this.

fits along with "how do you pronounce gif" and "should the toilet paper roll go over or under" where people online act like it's a big debate but only those on one side of the debate (yes/hard g/over) care to talk about it at all. and they will yell about it like their life depends on it.

Yeah I have Die Hard muted on Twitter for this reason. It’s hard to believe anyone actually cares; it’s just an artefact of social media loneliness I think.

also all that A Serbian Film/Irreversible/Come and See/Human Centipede "is a christmas movie" type hilarity wasn't really that funny the first time.

tbf memes are only funny* once they begin to enrage innocent bystanders

*good not bad

I didn't see the Die Hard meme much this year on twitter.

Maybe it's been overtaken by covid news so it's impossible to know whether etc.

Life of Crime 1984-2020 is a christmas movie

I didn't see the Die Hard meme much this year on twitter.

Though actually that may be skewed by Christmas 2021 not being over yet.

Reacting narkily to die hard is a christmas movie is in fact a christmas movie

Xpost glad the exponential growth has stopped

I know this is heresy around here, but I just don't care about Joan Didion.

we mercifully also got to miss the 'baby it's cold outside' consent discourse this year as well
