Things you're supposed to give a shit about, but you don't.

[BrickTraybake]

You know those little things in life that people like to morally police and make you feel guilty about but you just can't muster up the shit to give?

This is a confession thread. I'll start.

I don't give a shit that you supposedly shouldn't feed bread to ducks. I don't care. Don't eat it then. People have been feeding them bread for decades and now we're supposed to bring them organic bloody walnuts or something? Or some other crap they don't want that doesn't float?
They can have my slightly mouldy bread and be grateful.

Over to you.

We take oats to feed the ducks and lettuce.

You have headphones with I think your choice
I'm going on a cruise soon and if I have my way I'll throw some shapes to "Don;t Stop Me Now" while everyone else does their own thing .

The music is played through headphones not speakers.

I don’t care about dogs. In fact I hate the bloody things. Dogs in the office, dogs in the restaurants, dogs in shops, bloody digs everywhere I turn. I can’t get away from them.

And don’t get me started about their smell - yuk. Yes - your house does smell of dog. You just can’t smell it anymore because you’ve got used to it.

I don't use Instagram, so apologies if I'm getting it wrong here, but why do you follow them if you dislike them so much?

MEN.

typo.

Hear hear 🙌

Slightly heavier one, perhaps, but whether or not there's a god!

Either there isn't, in which case I'll try to live what I consider to be a good life for all the earthly good reasons, and then become wormfood in a circle of life kind of way. All fine with that!

Or there is and is either in the vein of one of the main religions, in which case I have no way of knowing which one and in any case would be taking issue with the god-as-described and the philosophy in at least some aspects and would still prefer to follow my own path(!); or it's some kind of unknown entity who I either have no chance of knowing about or who actually doesn't care about or pay attention to his/her/its creation. So I'll rumble on anyway!

The idea of God and I just have a very live-and-let-live relationship and if that ends in a spat at the Pearly Gates, so be it! 😁

Recycling food . Im not doing it .

Jean style questions on munsnet.

They are causal trousers. You're not turning into Kylie Jenner if you wear those flared 1970s gigs!
Buy what suits you.
Straight if you're top heavy or you'll look like something from Billy Smart's circus.

Other people's school choices.
Grey paint, I don't care if it is smoked white.

Ducks don't, they're lovely. Give me a duck any day over a smelly human

Male mallards gang rape the females to death.

She actually blocked me a long time ago (she doesn't like it if you disagree with her!!!) but I have a perverted sense of interest in how her posts are getting worse and worse as time goes on so I have the odd nose. It's a bit like car crash reality TV or a really bad soap opera like El Dorado. You know it's utterly crap but you feel compelled to tune in.

When people do a running commentary of what they think is going on in their baby's head :

"Oh , I'm hungry , is there food coming soon Mum? I want to get out of my pram and sit there . Can you put Grand Theft Auto on for me ? Now go away and leave me in peace I'm going for a nap ........ooh , might just have to squeeeeze this out first. Ha Ha she'll smell that in 5-4-3-2-1 .......Yes I am a Stinky Boy . Just like Daddy "

I was like you once until menopause hit I now have a leaky bladder…

@RaverQuavers

you sound quite privileged

Will nobody think of the swans?

Christmas Eve boxes. Don’t care and cant be bothered.

Gender reveal and baby showers

Taylor swifts current boyfriend. Or any celebrity life come to think of it

Wimbledon - I don't care about the prospects of X tennis player, competing for their own fame and glory, just because they are British!

I'm a celebrity/Strictly - the faux excitement of Lorraine Kelly types, for this mind numbing shit, does my head in.

Properly separating out the recycling. I'll make a bit of an effort, but I'm not going to tear the plastic window off an envelope and put it in a different bin. It all ends up in landfill in India anyway.

That would be hugely inconvenient and restrictive. Far more sensible that women continue to have sole use of the spaces designed for their sex.

Adult birthdays
You give up an hour of your already very busy life to look for a present that your friend will like, then more time to wrap it and take it over. Or you order something quick off amazon/grab some supermarket flowers and feel a bit shit about it.
Your friend is unfussed about receiving a gift which they can easily afford to buy for themselves if they wanted it but they make nice noises about it because they appreciate the effort. Then they put it in a drawer and forget about it.
Then it comes to your birthday and they buy you something which you don't need or want; you eat and drink far too much because your friends know that you like chocolate and wine; and you don't feel super grateful because you are an adult and able to buy your own stuff.
You want to have a meal with them because you enjoy their company, but because its their birthday they also invite their work friends and some of their family and you end up spending your whole evening answering questions from their mum like "now remind me, are you the one who got their head stuck in the bannisters or the one who broke their arm?" or chatting to Roger from accounts who you know for a fact your friend can't stand.
We should normalise stopping birthday stuff at 18!

ReggaetonLente Surely you must have DC or friends/siblings do? How horrible for future generations, not to have the gorgeous Black and white bears in our world! There are various reasons for their decline ,not just lack of sex! The females are only ovulating a few times per year so minimises their chances.Also they are needed for keeping Bamboo stocks healthy .

@betterangels

women’s rights generally are gonna be discussed by women though?

what do you mean? turning it into jeans and works of art?

Nah. Far more sensible that people who can’t accurately assess risk can bugger off home and use the loo.

When did we move to a society where rules were set by the most sensitive.

That might just be a result of minding them all day with no adult company. Just saying like!

WTF?? 😂😂😂

Sorry but this is absolutely fucking ridiculous. How could you not have laughed at him and td him together a grip? You're a better woman than me!!
