Sport. Got stuck at one of 2 tables people sat at from my course on Monday night and the rest of the table proceeded to talk about hurling.
I sat there thinking it was rude to leave, for several minutes, then got up and moved to other table and instantly found conversation interesting.

Does mean I'm less fit than I should be probably though. Used to dance quite frequently until I moved too far out of town to get home easily from wahtever clubs

I think I have a thing in my brain that just tunes out sport talk the moment it happens. If sport comes up in conversation or on telly all I hear is "blahblahblahblah" MAybe if I didn't have this handy cerebral device I might learn something, but sadly it's there to stay.

xp it never occurs to me to look at any metrics like this. My daughter will immediately look at how many plays a youtube video has and I would never think to look. Likewise, as a kid when I played video games I never cared about points.

Cow_Art, Saturday, 17 May 2025 20:33 (four months ago)

How many streams a particular musical act has, especially if it's over 1 billion

The entire phenomenon of "fans" getting obsessed with artists' chart status and sales figures is one of the worst kinds of brain poison. Nothing makes me want to listen to someone's music less than telling me how many copies it's sold.

action hero movies

one of my coworkers is a big nerdy type, and he can’t wrap his head around my not having seen any of these Marvel/DC movies that he is into. unlike some things, i don’t actively hate on them or anything, i just have never cared about them? they’re not for me.

Sydney Sweeney

xyzzzz__, Friday, 8 August 2025 09:57 (one month ago)

OTM. I'm having problems understanding exactly why there is a thread about her on ILX.

Corny Capitalism (Tom D.), Friday, 8 August 2025 10:40 (one month ago)

I also do not care about her and hadn't heard of her until this week, however the case is maybe notable as the advert looks like a shift from covert to overt racism has taken place. beyond that, absolutely, who cares?

Proust Ian Rush (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Friday, 8 August 2025 10:45 (one month ago)

she's the 20 something actor who plays the teenager whose stash of drugs get's stolen in S1 of White Lotus. That's it - that's all I have to say on the matter.

vodkaitamin effrtvescent (calzino), Friday, 8 August 2025 10:45 (one month ago)

if she has done a racist ad, I don't mean I'm indifferent to that. But fucked if I'm clicking on a bleh actor/celeb thread.
