What, do you not give a shit about?

[ohiosmith]

Poker. I don't give a shit about poker.

[datasuspect]

1. american idol, lost, heroes, material possessions, money, fake sentiment

identity politics, etc. etc.

[skygazer]

2. Sports

They just don't interest me.

[deutsey]

8. Same here...also "reality" TV

People always ask me whether I saw "the game" or if I'm glad Sanjay (sp?) was voted off, or whatever, and I have no clue what they're talking about most of the time. Nor do I care...

[Critters2]

10. Same here.

I've tried watching some of that stuff, but just can't stay interested. I always end up switching back to a news show, turning the box off and picking up a book, or logging on to DU. So, I'm out of touch with the culture. But happily so.

[zanne]

48. WWF Wrestling.

But my husband loves it. It's just one of his personality defects. It's on all night Mondays and Fridays. GAH!

[Throd]

3. Celebrities

Unless Paris Hilton is sneaking up behind me with a pipe wrench, I could NOT care less what she or her ilk are doing.

[Maestro]

32. Amen!

:thumbsup:

[MissMillie]

67. hear hear!!!!

:applause:

[Writer]

4. What a few people think about me...

and I second datasuspect's identity politics - a scourge to liberalism. Oh, and Chomsky - a GREAT scourge to liberalism.

[southlandshari]

9. Same here

I still have a lot of lessons yet to be learned in life, but one I've got down pretty well is never to let a few people - particularly those who don't have any of your best interests at heart - define who you are. No matter how hard or how publicly they may try.

I also just don't care much about pro sports, the fact that I have .43 in my bank account or who wins "Dancing With the Stars".

I am, however, quite happy to cross paths with you and other DU friends here today!

:hi:

[Zavulon]

5. Golf, horse racing, NASCAR, the Oscars.

I don't give even half a shit about any of them.

[RedStateShame]

6. Golf.

Celebrities and their personal lives
Most of what's on TV
Wearing things that are "cool" or made by a certain company
Make up and nice hair

[TZ]

14. I could say a certain VA universities sports team(football) but....

that wouldn't be very nice now would it:)

Mostly its this: The View (including that big mouth Rosie O'Donnell)
Celebrities and fashion
All political pundits on cable tv (not including Comedy Central)
Sitcoms on regular tv (stupid and unfunny)
Soap Operas
Edited to add: anything and everything associated with Donald Trump

[Liberalynn]

[1gobluedem]

75. They're called *comma splices* and worth, exactly

-2 Points off your grade for each offense.:hangover:

[Deep13]

16. 90% of popular culture.

[aljones]

17. Christianity, Celebrities and my BF's brother!!

I mean really Bobby, your brother is not that fuckin special..

[Zuiderelle]

18. I don't give a shit about where you put your comma.

;)

[racaulk]

51. .

:spray:

[seemunkee]

19. TV dramas

I know there are some good ones out there and I've tried to watch a few. I watched 1/2 an episode of Heroes, 2 episodes of the first season of 24, and parts of The Sopranos but I could never found them interesting enough to care about them.

[SarahB]

20. college or professional sports

I enjoy watching my kids play baseball or basketball, but getting all gung ho about people I don't know and taking it really seriously is not me. Someone was talking to me about the Yankees recently who also knew my ex-husband (he's a rabid Yankee fun), I just said, "I have no clue about the Yanks and I don't have to have a clue anymore." (I know enough to know he's got to be grumpy about it though.) :D

[Exiled in America]

21. The RIAA

*goes to download something illegally just to piss them off* :)

[Ms_Dem_Meanor]

22. Lately...

anything on TV that is not a movie that I want to watch. I really hate looking at the news. It is too depressing at times. At other times, it is these in your face, photo-op, attention getting, media whores. You can take your pick of who I am talking about.

[SKKY]

23. People who don't like Golf!!!

Nope. Don't give a rat's ass about any of 'em!

:P

[KG]

25. this thread.

:hi:

[ohiosmith]

79. Sucks doesn't it?

[eyepaddle]

26. Astrology

and even more inane, Cat astrology.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

58. My cat is a Pisces, and he is highly offended.

:hi:

[TheBaldyMan]

66. Pisceans are very sensitive so that's not surprising

:P

[MAGICBULLET]

27. Vanity

and Sean Hannity

[SPKrazy]

28. More and more things

which is good in a way, sad in other ways.

but truly i've spent too much time giving a shit about too many things and it is time to not give a shit about more things in life.

that way i'm freer to do things that make me happy, don't hurt others, and not worrying about the judgment of others either.

:shrug:

[BluePatriot]

29. My job. (nt)

[NewWaveChick1981]

30. American Idol and NASCAR.

:) :hi:

[liberalpress]

31. About with whom

[Kali]

33. most television

take that back - I do give a shit - I loathe it.

[wildhorses]

34. impressing fake people

[GalleryGod]

38. You mean like 75% of the Lounge?

Oh...I get THAT. :smoke:

[wildhorses]

:bounce:

[BarenakedLady]

56. Still,

I am rather impressive...

:D

[Dukkha]

35. Democratic candidates 18 months before the election

wake me up when September ends.

[jakefrep]

71. I agree with you...

...I'm not yet ready to get into the 2008 election.

Also, I don't give a rat's ass about the WNBA, or who killed JonBenet Ramsey.

[Rue]

36. Most popular television and music, money beyond what is necessary, among other things. (n/t)

[GalleryGod]

37. DUers who use a thread like an IM

Prodigious Ca jones on some losers.

[datasuspect]

45. sounds like someone has a case of the mondays

i personally dislike at least two people here, but calling another DUer a loser is pretty lame.

[GalleryGod]

74. Oh ,like this place is filled with "Winners" ? CEO s and the like.

Please find a table, here in the cafeteria of the D.U.J.H.S.:rofl:

[ForrestGump]

76. Wieners, maybe

Then again, I don't like people who talk of 'winners' and 'losers,' in general, let alone by equating either stupid term to material wealth. They're usually archetypal Ugly Americans.

[datasuspect]

77. you have to be a CEO to be a winner?

are you a captain of industry?

there's no need to be rude or insulting.

[graywarrior]

39. Just about everything.

[smitty]

40. Tattoos and body piercings,

[Kutjara]

41. Kudzu

:hide:

[MedleyMisty]

43. TV and celebrities.

[BlueIris]

44. Sports, sex, and whether Hillary has a nice voice or not.

[Arugula Latte]

46. Sports (especially golf). Also cars. Also shoes -- and I'm a female.

Shoes -- who cares? They bore me to tears. What's the big deal?

[Manifestor_of_Light]

91. Comfy shoes I like.

But these women that buy damn spike heels nobody can walk in, that are dangerous, and they hurt like hell???

When men say women are stupid, I point to THOSE WOMEN.

Me, I think the ultimate in comfort is Ferragamo Sneakers, if you got the money.

If not, regular sneakers from Marshall's do JUST FINE.

[Joe Fields]

47. Sardines or 1 hour Martinizing

[ThatsMyBarack]

49. People who don't like figure skating!

That and today's bill not being passed. So what else is new? :eyes:

Oh, and Anna Nicole.

[BlueJazz]

50. RAP

[Skittles]

52. American F***ing Idol

I seriously despise that piece of shit show...am sick of hearing about it as though it is REAL NEWS and don't consider the contest winners to be real celebrities

[EstimatedProphet]

53. The 1967 Arkansas State Tax Regulations

Really could care less...

[hellbound-liberal]

54. I don't give a shit about

constipation!

[BarenakedLady]

55. Shorter list would be the things I do give a shit about. (n/t)

[wildhorses]

61. perhaps you should start a thread

:bounce:


have we ever seen a bnl thread?

[BarenakedLady]

64. I have a few times in the past

Only when I think I have something interesting to say. Which is why they are few and far between. hehe.

:rofl:

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

57. American Idol; golf; football; hockey; boxing; Britney Spears; Paris Hilton;

Survivor; acquaintances' childrens' bowel habits, school plays, recitals, grades, sports or temper tantrums; poker; snowmobiles, ATVs and dirt bikes; Dancing with Stars; "24"; recreational shopping; scrapbooking; weddings of people I don't know; anything that is of interest to Nancy Grace; The Secret; Oprah; Chris Matthews; and a whole lot of other silly shit.

[QMPMom]

59. My sister-in-law and my aunt.

The sooner they are off this planet, the happier I will be.

Hmmm..actually, I guess that means I do give a shit, doesn't it?

Anyway, they are horrid women.

[greatauntoftriplets]

60. Reality TV.

:puke:

[cobalt1999]

62. apparently the Tony Awards.

My company has given me ticket to this years Tony awards and the post awards party. Much to my wife's displeasure, I turned them down. For me, I wouldn't even recognize a single person...I'm that out of touch with modern plays/movies/celebs.

[Katina]

63. prunes

ok, that's a lie.... :evilgrin:

[NewJeffCT]

65. Reality TV shows, celebs who complain about the burden of being rich & famous

If I hear a celebrity complain about how tough it is to be famous, I just roll my eyes and tune them out.

[bigwillq]

68. Celebrities

and anything related to them...I love their music, movies, etc...but their behavior and lifestyle choices is not news and it shouldn't be on my TV.

[Lyric]

69. Fashionable, trendy things.

I really could care less. I wear what I want to wear (which sometimes involves a favorite pair of faded Levis and a t-shirt, and sometimes involves wearing my pajamas all day). My hair isn't cut or styled in a "fashionable" way--it's just long, and I usually wear it in a ponytail. I don't wear makeup unless I'm going to a special event, and even then, it's extremely minimal. I own precisely three pairs of shoes--one pair of sneakers, one pair of cheap Birkenstock-ripoff sandals, and one pair of black leather "dressy" sandals for special occasions. I don't care about the social standard that says I need to be thin and well-dressed in order to be attractive, because I don't care about being attractive. If ThinkBlue1966 ever dumps me, I'd rather find someone who's interested in *who I am*, as opposed to how well I fit society's accepted vision of a woman.

If I hear that something is "cool" or "stylish", it makes me *less* likely to be interested in it.

Edit: Oh yes--and I don't pluck my eyebrows. I consider that a form of torture.

[saltpoint]

70. Agree with you on poker, ohiosmith. Also I'm not into

gangster movies.

[Orsino]

72. George Tenet.

As much dirt as he could be dishing, that he drops only a minor bombshell just as his book hits the stores says he's still observing the omerta.

If he had the kind of courage and integrity required to disclose classified information incriminating the * Admin, well, he never would have been appointed DCI by *.

[Roon]

73. Television, movies,books

All stuff I used to enjoy before the Internets.

[Rhiannon12866]

78. You all really have it about covered... Thank you!

Though I take exception to punctuation and books. Those subjects matter to me...:evilgrin:

[onecent]

80. Anna Nicole's Life! or Death!

[usaftmo]

81. Right-wingers complaining about the 2006 elections.

The people have spoken...GET OVER IT! :nopity:

[Initech]

82. Celebrity culture!!!

I don't give a shit about celebrities. I don't see why we should be forced to like someone because they have more money and get drunk out in public.

[Deja Q]

83. I'll let you know, but I do know

that I do give a shit about you. :pals:

[femmocrat]

84. The republican debate. Ugh.

[abbeyco]

85. Paris Hilton and those like her n/t

[Redstone]

86. Pretty much ALL of popular culture.

Redstone

[av8rdave]

87. Here's my list

American Idol
Anna Nicole Smith (sympathy to her family, but enough is enough)
Pro wrestling
Cigars
Most television

[Algorem]

88. Giving a shit seems so pre-Y2K.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

89. Pro sports, reality TV, cars

:-(

[CBHagman]

90. All the TV shows that people obsess about.

I gave up watching weekly TV shows when The West Wing and Everybody Loves Raymond went off the air. Now I watch Jeopardy, some Britcoms and history shows on PBS, movies on TCM, some of the news on MSNBC (especially Olbermann), and that's about it.

[gemdem]

92. Life styles of the rich, famous, and undeserving

Also, reality TV. By and large, I hate it.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

93. Sports of any kind.

Just about all TV except new episodes of the Simpsons.
Celebrity gossip.
Soap operas.
Commercial radio. I only listen to classical on NPR, or local Pacifica station, or XM since we have no liberal radio stations on AM here.
Cable TV.

wearing fashionable clothes
buying new clothes all the time

exotic food I cannot tolerate, like sushi, or weird spicy stuff. And having people tell me "Oh it's not that hot". I have learned the hard way NOT to believe them.

[deadparrot]

94. My last final tomorrow.

I just want summer to start. :bounce:
