Things you should be interested in but aren't

[SuperGinger]

Climate change and the environment, I literally find them the most boring subjects in the world. I'm not a climate change denier, I'll do what I can but I'm just nor interested.

Plumbing! A friend has had a new bathroom installed and sadly has had issues with the plumbing ever since. She keeps explaining it to me in great detail but I'm afraid I can't work up any enthusiasm 😖

Plant names & soil types. . . most of my family are keen gardeners. They keep wandering around my garden, questioning me about my plants, using the Latin names, querying whether I am growing things in the correct soil etc etc. I find this exceptionally tedious . . . .

I'm with you on anything climate / sustainability based. I will do as I'm told eg I recycle but other than that I've nothing to add.

Politics
The election
The football
Any sport
The kids' school (I don't give a shit what you do there just do it and stop sending hundreds of bastard slips home to be signed - PUT IT ONLINE).
school parents
Bridgerton s3
Netflix

What others think of me!!

Politic on an in-depth level..find it so boring.

war
sport
housework
other people’s children and grandchildren
other people’s holidays
the intense political views of young people
fashion

Pretty much anything besides my kids and my job 🫠 just cba

Politics, I no it’s important but it’s boring.

Cooking, I’m crap at it and im a single parent of 2, I should be interested because it’s something I have to do every bloody day. But it’s boring, takes ages and then I have to clean the kitchen. Cooking sucks

Wildlife documentaries.
Women’s football.

Bridgerton, gin, coffee, most books charting in bookstores

TeaKitten
I feel the same about cooking. Hate it

In theory I am just the sort of dull, middle aged woman who should like gardening and listening to Radio 4. I would quite like to be interested in them but I just am not.

Prepping. The government where I am has sent out a list. I don't have the money, the space or the headspace to think about canned goods, water bottles, and battery-driven radios. If Russia comes after us, I'll be done for anyway. Might as well just come to terms.

Cooking, alcohol, family drama, school gate politics and politics in general, other people's babies.

Politics & current affairs tv programmes. I can barely tolerate the stuff on the news, let alone a whole uninterrupted hour of it.

books and friends kids

Politics
The news

I have to really force myself to keep up with both of them.

Football at any level, be it England or my son's team. Just so boring.

Politics

I'm just so rubbish with it and switch off which is really embarrassing as my 15 year old is really into it! I need to try and start understanding it a bit better

Directions, slip roads opening and closing on the motorway. Any conversation that is dry without humour or feelings

Pensions
A lot of other stuff to do with finance
Law

This is such a good answer . . . I completely agree

Netflix (most tv tbh, just not my way to relax)
Politics
Other peoples engagements/weddings/babies

Israel / Palestine.

Religious fanatics in that part of the world have bern killing each other for centuries. It’s just what they do. Something to do with high unemployment & too much sun, or whatever. And I have been completely bored of hearing about it for decades.

The situation is not our problem to solve. Our strategic interests are not at stake. So we should keep selling arms to both sides, which benefits Britain, but otherwise leave them to it & let them get on with it. After all, a few less religious fanatics in the world can’t be a bad thing, can it?

Politics- doesn't matter who's in my life won't change so I don't care.
Same with who's the American president, literally makes no difference to my day to day life so don't understand why people care.

Oh god, women's football!!

It's all about proving a point, and oh we're just as good as you at it (you really aren't)

I'm a woman btw
