Sports. I've tried to care many times, but its just so boring and pointless.

Social media. Both personal (instatwitface) and business (LinkedIn). Lemmy is as close as I get, and to me this is just a modern forum.

In my opinion social media has done nothing but make people stupider, and I want nothing to do with it. (It’s probably just a sign I’m old now - “get off my lawn!”)

;)

Celebrity gossip.

I have no idea how so many people are so invested in the lives of famous people, and all of the "Did you hear that so-and-so and some-other-jackass are having a baby!?" Is so boring...

I'd rather mow my lawn with fingernail clippers.

Having kids

The economy.

I'm a laborer. When the economy is bad, my cost of living goes up and the price of food goes up.

When the economy is great, my cost of living goes up and the price of food goes up.

The only people affected by a positive economy seem to be the people wealthy enough to have stock portfolios and large shares in corporations. It doesn't affect me as a laborer in any positive way ever.

The beach, I couldn't give less of a bother about going to lay on some burning sand, occasionally dipping my toes in some freezing fish piss water, and getting pelted in the face with sand as a bunch of kids run by kicking up every speck of sand they touch while their parents are getting shitfaced and blasting music no one else wants to hear.

Put me in a secluded lake in the woods with some shade near by and I'm all in though. I guess more specifically my issue is with the people at the beach, but still.

My boss is pushing the AI stuff pretty hard lately. I just want to write my own code.

Religion.

You’re all like Star Wars fans to me.

New movies and shows.

It’s all just shallow products being pumped out by an uncaring industry that rather slurp up product placement, celebrities and milking dead franchises over writing an original story that’s worth telling.

Trans stuff. Before you get the torches and pitchforks, I have no problem with them. I believe they deserve equality, and I don't believe in spreading hate their way. I'm not Trans, so I don't have a horse in this race, nor do I desire one. It doesn't appeal to me, it doesn't interest me in the slightest. I have my own concerns (keeping my house, paying my bills, keeping my family safe) and they have theirs, I guess is what I'm saying. If I see a Trans person get mistreated, I'll stick up for them, just like I'd do for anyone, but I'm not interested in it. They are no different from me, we are all people. I think constantly bringing it up to people all the time is more of a disservice.

stocks...incredibly unpredictable

The long-run performance of broad index funds can be pretty predictable.

The Royal family

Renting forever. Yeah, I'd like to own a house, sure. But on the other hand, I don't have to remove snow from my place, I don't have to pay a repair guy to fix stuff when it's broken, don't have to mow the lawn, or maintain the swimming pool. If I have problems with my neighbors, I can complain to management and they'll handle things discreetly without singling me out or involving me.

I suppose it depends on where you live, and what you're paying, but while it's not entirely ideal, it's also not awful.

Getting married and having chikdren, aka, a "family"

Newly released music.
I have access to internet, not just decades, but centuries of music. Why should I need to know the songs released this year? It's just a drop in the ocean. I don't need to have the newest music right away.

Similarly with new movies.

Guns. I don't give a single shit about them either way. I don't have much interest in owning them. I don't think a ban would be effective. I don't think the US national argument about them is going to ever be resolved. Miss me with all that shit.

Subscription music services.

Whatever's the current "big" issue in showbiz. I really couldn't care less that ABC was photographed with DEF in GHI, possibly hinting a relationship collapse with JKL, or whatever it was that people are harping about with other people's lives.

The British Royal family. I'm an American, living in America, and the number of people here who follow the royals to the point of being sycophants is so freaking weird. I literally do not care about the machinations of a bunch of rich fucks who's sole claim to fame and fortune is being sprayed out of the correct penis before then falling out of the correct vagina.

Right there with you in stocks and Bitcoin. Computers and coding not far behind. I sound like a luddite but I have no reason to be interested in this stuff.

I also don't get a shit about pop culture icons or influencers.

It's nice under this rock, where I live. Nematodes are great company

Devotion to the faith (I still believe in God but I just don't feel connected to him), marriage, having children, cars, being super rich, universities, patriotism, being in an anglophone country just because I'm too good at English, being manly, being famous, football, traditional customs, I really could go on and on for days.

Can you tell I hate being Moroccan?
