Tbh my solution thus far has been just not caring. Celebrity culture is annoying; and the people who care about it are annoying too. I don’t care about the Kardashians or whoever and their lives, mine is made measurably better by not paying attention to theirs. Hence why I just pretend to be a celebrity denier, denying celebrities exist. It’s a funny bit and it highlights my apathetic attitude towards them. Primarily because I get my entertainment and art from the sources I endlessly peruse for unpopular (read: extremely small) creators. tbh life this way is amazing. I really wish people who care about celebrity culture would stop being as judgemental as I’ve found them to be regarding what I like when it comes to how niche I like stuff.
You do at least know who Batboy is though right?
That grunt flipper?
Alleged!
It’s Nightwing these days, boomer
When you walk away from celebrity culture you’re free to define what success looks like for you, instead of being told what success is and blindly chasing that.
That’s a brilliant mindset.
Lemmy is popular in retirement homes I see
Wow, in which country do you retire at 50??? I need to know!!!
By ‘retired’ they mean ‘made redundant and failing to find other work’.
95% of celebrity news has always been that meaningless. It isn’t an age thing, as even when I understand the headlines, they just aren’t important. Even if I’m interested in what the celebrity is up to because I like their work, those stories are about inane bullshit that doesn’t even matter to the celebrity themselves.
The important news happens irregularly and outside of their control, so the news companies create trash to pad dull moments in between. The same is true with all news, as important shit gets passed over to boost filler for more profitable topics. I often see nothing important on news websites, only to find seriously important stories from those same websites buried under the trash from third-parties.
There are gruntflips reported on at all levels. It isn’t really new anywhere.
Gruntflip sounds dangerously close to cuntflap.
Anyway I’m about to turn 30, but it’s not like I was ever one of the cool kids. As a teen/young adult I was a dork. (still am, it’s just that when you’re an adult no one gives a shit)
So I’ve instead been watching the evolution of the inscrutable language of young people from afar for a very, VERY long time.
I’m 50 and I don’t follow any news. I have limited time left can’t be bothered to spend it away worrying or feeling sorry about unfortunate events.
That’s so mid!
(I’m 43 am I gonna go to cool jail) (Do they have skippy-dippy toilets there or the regular ones)
It’s SKIBIDY TOILET you old fart.
I’m 42, so technically younger than you.
I’m 41 and ALSO tragically unhip! Even my way of saying it is devastatingly passé!
We should get some kind of coincidence trophy for our confluence of ages, though…
I’m positively a baby in comparison at 27 and I’m still lost on these memes
Well that’s because you’re too young!
Skibidi is something Scatman John said back in the 90s
Makes sense, it would be a Scatman starting a toilet meme, wouldn’t it?
I wish I didn’t understand this
LoL!!!
Y’all are some cool geezers, hope I end up close to your retirement homes
So gyat skibidi rizzler fanum tax Ohio.
I’m upset that I understand all of these words, especially the last one.
Tax Ohio? Good luck getting that past Mike Dewine!
Always has been.
I am unfamiliar with the grunt flip, only the warthog flip.
Seeing a YouTube link with the tracking referrers is like finding a stray dog covered in ticks. Just sad…
