Is it awful of me that I don't really give a crap about this mine rescue business?

I mean, in some vague, oh-yeah-that's-good way, I'm glad they're being rescued. I don't wish them any ill will and think it's good that this isn't ending in tragedy. But in the end, I just really don't care.
They had to put the news up on a big TV in the lunch room at work so people wouldn't slow the system by trying to watch it on their computers. And all these people were glad to go watch it on their breaks. I just don't get it. It's slow and boring watching hours of slowing ascending and descending equipment. But people couldn't get enough.
I dunno. People are awfully voyeuristic and starved for entertainment. Or I'm a heartless psychopath. Or both could be true.

Well, everyone knows you're a hateful bitch, so I'm not surprised you'd react the same way.

The rescue is taking place in a mine. My statement was in no way incorrect. *NM*

There is no law that says what has to float your boat and you are a bad person if it doesn't.

Lucky you. Given that you described it as "managed to avoid" the story, you're totally HBC material. *NM*

It's an incredible story, but a lot of people don't care about South America.

It has nothing to do with the fact that it invovles brown people thousands of miles away.

Yeah. That's why I said the same complaints would be raised if it were in West Virginia.
