There’s a difference between kind of internally not being interested, which is totally fine, and going online to mock “friends” as you pretend to care. I’m willing to admit I am probably taking it a little too seriously, but I feel like the more we explain this meme the worse it sounds, and that should say something. The format also contributes to a pretty patronizing tone.
Fair enough. It's hard to anticipate how people will take it because the creator is blinded by whatever tone they originally envisioned. In this case I suppose it doesn't come across as light-hearted as I intended.
All true as well. Either way no big deal, have a good one!
