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.

When 'the most sensitive' are the ones whose voices are loudest and who wield the greatest influence, clearly. It was ever the way. But these things ebb and flow. So, we will wait and see.

It's weird how you get judged for having one child. Some people will say well done, others come out with all manner of horrible shit. Like you, I don't care but the cheek of people! I doubt I'd get a great reception if I started lecturing child free people on their choices!

Well, your unconcern about the issue might be connected to the fact that you literally don't know what you're talking about here!

A trans man is a woman who thinks she's a man. She would be most displeased to hear she looked "more of a woman than you do".

I agree, so do many of my vegan friends which seems to surprise lots people but really the whole point of the moral standing is about allowing nature to control it own populations not torturing animals through forcing breeding and that can also apply to 'saving' the panda.

We should ditch that waste effort and money and instead save animals that are being poached/hunted to death instead of dying off naturally.

There’s an alternative universe somewhere with ducks feeding humans chocolates. Right now on Hensnet there’s an argument going on with posters saying they love feeding humans chocolate and the humans love it, but angry human conservationists are saying the ducks are killing out the humans just because they like fat squishy humans. They say the ducks should be throwing cut up sprouts to the humans, one poster argues they try this but some selfish ducker always comes along with a large bar of Dairy Milk.

This has all made me chuckle so much!! 😂

My kids grades at school.

It’s not though. Bread offers birds not benefit - fills them up so they don’t look for real food and then they can for.

OP is clealry uneducated on this issue and proud of their casual disgrace for the animals well-being!

I thought she was going to say she doesn’t now her lawn or wash her car or iron her clothes! Rather than expose a significant character flaw🫣

Don't go.
The bride and groom don't really want you there anyway. 

I VERY strongly suspect that those duck biscuits are no better than bread and are just cobbled together by people that want to make money out of the "you're a terrible person if you give bread to ducks" thing. And well done to those people for seeing the gap in the market.
But how many people are actually checking what's in these ducks biscuits and duck food? If they are honest are they not just buying them to feel better and less guilty and so they are not seen by the duck police?

I do care about not giving birds mouldy bread (I feed birds)

I love the station rat!

Well those 36% of people suck.

I wish there was a picture of the two handed Big Mac eat

This. I have two single colleagues who expect me to be interested and care about their various aliments. Really? Sorry you have sore feet, stomach, head. Have you tried raising two autistic kids who have never slept through the night? Responsibility and parenting just never stop for me so don't expect me to care about your aches and pains.

People denied boarding at the airport because their passport doesn't meet the Brexit rules. If they voted for Brexit then it serves them right. Otherwise, it's a shame they missed out because they're daft.

People who are stuck abroad with astronomical medical costs because they didn't buy any/proper travel insurance. More fool them.

Struggling dog shelters who insist on keeping hundreds of bitey/savage-looking dogs no one wants in cages so they go insane rather than doing the decent thing and PTS.

Space travel. Polluting waste of money. There's nothing interesting out there close enough to affect us in any way.

And here we go, into the nastiness this site is known for around trans women

Healthy lunchbox rules.

It's not that I want my child to eat shit, but our school bans nuts, eggs, fish, cheese, pesto, sesame, yoghurts, avocado and various other things due to allergies.

I'm fine with that - they need to ensure the kids' safety and I get that. But then for the school to complain when I send my fussy eater with a jam penny, an apple and some carrot sticks is beyond me.

Yes, I'm well aware that his lunch doesn't have any protein. The reason being that the school have banned every protein source he might consider eating!

Good lord are we still rumbling on about ducks? I wonder statistically how many ducks have been harmed from bread-eating during the length of this thread. My guess is a big fat fucking zero. And with that, I'm off to the park with my Warburtons.

But your voices aren’t the loudest, you’re just easy fodder for the Tories to try and placate

Just like how pensioners aren’t the loudest voices but the tories bend over backwards to appease them with public policy

This relates to me locally.

I do not care that the council have decided to charge for green waste collections and to go to fortnightly waste collection. I don't particularly care that the roll out of the scheme has not been as smooth as ideal. The way some locals are going on our streets will soon be running knee deep in waste.

One particular local councillor, in a very strange turn of events on a Facebook group, lay into me because I blamed the fly tipping on the individual who had fly tipped.

I told her I didn't care, she didn't like that answer.

Women (especially young women) actors/celebrities/influencers who think they are enhancing their appeal by employing "Vocal Fry"

I will switch off any programme or radio station , I do not want to hear it .

DH and I watched "Tarot" , one of the cast had Vocal Fry and I seriously wanted her to be the first one killed

It is not sexy
It does not make you sound like you have authority
It is Fucking Annoying .

<sigh>

Where McDonalds open a branch. Couldn’t give a shiny shit.

Using my car. I live in the middle of nowhere, using public transport adds hours to my journey. Until the infrastructure is sorted out I don’t want to hear about “alternatives”.

not read the whole thread as found it all a bit depressing.

But I imagine, just with the issues with processed food for humans, that bread isnt that great because its barely food nowdays. The bread fed to ducks for decades was probably home made home milled proper actual bread,

whereas now it has a huge amount of additives and bulking agents as although filling, is probably virtually devoid of nutrients.

And no I dont like other peoples babies. I quite like toddlers. I can be persuaded by a puppy or a kitten. My nails are in a state because I work with my hands and do stuff that gets mucky. I care about the environment and pollution and the shit in our rivers, land and sea, but I dont give a flying toss about any kind of celebrity hooha royal gossip, who did what with whom and why.

I do care about men in womens places and spaces, winning our prizes and taking jobs that have been created for us, to allow girls to level up in under represented spheres, and I equally am concerned about boys being fed really toxic ideas about what it is to be a 'man'

I dont give a shiny one about sport. of any kind really. I dont give a shit about 'patriotism' or 'stop the boats'.

I guess Im probably one of those awful lefty liberals
