I don't care when other people get mad
One day, I woke up and realized I don't care as much of what other people thought regarding things they hate. Don't like Twilight? Tough. Pissed off about Capcom's unethical business practices? Sucks, but what can you do. Star Wars movies coming every few years? Oh well. Black Ops II made over a billion dollars? Why you mad? My Little Pony more popular than ever? Why do you care?
Is this happening to anyone else? In a forum called It Just Bugs Me, I have less to talk about.

Not sure if I actually share that attitude, but I think it is probably a good one to have, since there are plenty of things that some people get riled up about that are pretty silly. I guess the only caveat to that thought is that there may be some stuff that is worth getting upset about and being apathetic about those issues might end up being part of the problem.

I don't mind indifference but stating it does kind of bothers me in an environment where you aren't being directly addressed.
This isn't so much not caring that other people are mad. It's more caring, and then deciding that not being mad about these specific things somehow makes you better than the people who are mad about them.
Don't get me wrong, I think people get angry over ridiculous things too, but why state such unprovoked and without any reason if not to brag?
edit: oh hey I already responded to this topic in one of my one-word non-witticisms.
I don't know, I wouldn't call it indifference because that means I don't care at all, this is more like the inability to care about getting mad (I'm not sure if there's a word for that). I felt like mentioning it because everyone I know gets riled up about something or other, and I just can't get riled up right now. Don't get me wrong, I'll probably get riled up about something eventually.
Or maybe it's just the internet company I keep. (awkward laugh)
Would a cinder block falling on your foot do the trick? Or waking up to a howler monkey screaming in your face every day?
Would you mind not doing that anymore?
I assumed it was some sort of in-joke I wasn't getting.
Nah. Just something he does.
It doesn't' stand for anything?
It's a goofy way of spelling "edgy."

And most people don't care that you don't care. Which you will not care about, setting up an infinite loop of apatheticker-than-thou.
I could care less, except when I couldn't.
That's why I've thought of this forum as a place to just talk about whatever. Not just complaints about stuff.
