I loved Anthony Bourdain. I read his book and watched all his shows. I thought he was really cool and sexy and I loved cooking shows, I learned a lot watching him. When he died, I cried - the only celebrity I’ve been upset about. I felt guilty for being upset about a celebrity because my friends made fun of people like that, but my chef sister told me “he doesn’t count, he’s actually a cool celebrity.” Ever since then I’ve felt weird about this sentiment :/ it feels really judgmental. Let people like stupid shallow things; people are multi-faceted. (I like true crime which some people think is shallow and f****d up, I can’t hate people for enjoying the Kardashians)

Think if i got to meet Ryan Reynolds, the Rock and Kevin Hart i might just be a teeny tiny bit excited

Could not give a flying f*** about so-called " celebrities " these morons who are famous for being famous, reality " stars " - papers don't help by splashing them all across the front pages. No one cares about your stupid " beach ready body in just 30 seconds!! " bulls***....

I like about 3 celebrities, mainly because they are just like wholesome role models like Keanu Reeves lol, I ain’t never cared about the actual celebrity stuff

I like celebrities- I just don't follow all the drama and hate

Robin Williams, Anthony Bourdain, and Keanu Reeves.

And their opinions on topics they have no more life experience with than I do. Why do people care when a celebrity actor pipes up on social media about world politics foreinstance. Their opinion is of no more value than yours. Think critically about the world and form your own opinions.

Me neither....but...but...who is she?

I do not even know 60% of these new celebrities, especially in the music and social media platforms

Celebrity worship has gotten way out of control. THEY. ARE. JUST. PEOPLE.

I don't even know any of them anymore

Just people that need constant attention & approval who do nothing for the world in general. Unless they’re putting their efforts into a good cause instead of just themselves, I don’t even want to hear about them.

Celebrities are overrated. People who have got a talent, and are then exploited by others to make money. They are just ordinary people.

Except for David Tennant. The man is Scotland's national treasure.

And she is??? Actually don't tell me. I don't care.

It's been like that for a long time with me. There are some famous people I love but I don't obsessively follow all the gossip and what magazines say about them. I just like their work.

It blows my mind that anyone cared in the first place.

Most of the "celebrities" of the last 20 years or so could hang out at my mailbox and I wouldn't know them.

i remember the ones i grew up with and a few here and there but mostly, i dont pay them any mind. over half the time some celebrity will do something everyone is talking about and my only reply is "who?"

Mark Lanegan, Prince and Amy Winehouse ♥️

Who? Never heard of them.

As it should be

I think most celebrities are made-up.

One of the absolute joys of mid life for me! And there aren't many for the perimenopausal working mum/wife, so make the most of it

I absolutely love living alone. Well not totally alone. It's just me and my doggo.

We should all have been this way from the beginning, we ain’t gotta impress anybody but ourselves. We are who we are.

So, none of the honest people that want to change the world for the better get into politics? Or maybe they get corrupted immediately? Or maybe everything in the world isn't going your way, so you throw a tantrum and blame "every politician in the world". Sorry if I offend all you upvoters but I'm so tired of this dumb trope.

Stilettos don't pair well with cargo shorts and a sleeveless t-shirt. But I do have 18,000 pockets.

....or they're just sequels or remakes of older movies. It's like they can't come up with anything original nowadays.

I love my stepkids, my wife, my daughter, and (most of) my family...beyond that I find it hard to pretend I care.

I can understand this one. But while it does come with its fair share of problems, it can also bring ease and comfort to one’s dark life. It has its ups and downs but love can indeed be a beautiful thing. Unfortunately it comes with obstacles to get to, and get past.

F**k social media

As I get older, my idea of fun is being comfortable

Scream it loud for those in the shallow end.

I can maintain 3, maybe 4 worthwhile relationships at a time. My wife and kids fill those slots. Sorry not sorry, I just don't have the bandwidth to deal with anyone else.

I had to stop working in my mid-40s... I miss my job - company phone/car/computer, travel with a per diem every few weeks. But even without the perks, I miss the purpose. Thank goodness for my daughter. BP is heavy on "I'm never having kids and here are 30 reasons it's awesome" but she gives me purpose and happiness.

Growing older any day that I don't have an appointment with my doctor, dentist, hospital, chiropractor or any other specialist is a good day.

I never liked logos on my clothes :/ small town though

This! Some people are addicted to drama…

I am an auction fiend! Nothing makes me happier than an under-the-radar auction. $600 Roomba for $80... thank you! $1200 wine cellar for $75... sure! $500 bidet for $85... why not? Morgan silver dollars for $18... WHAT!?

There's a saying that there's really only about half-a-dozen different kinds of human story, and every fictional book, drama, or comedy ever is just a re-presentation of one of those basic stories.

"Wednesdays church is way better than the Sunday services" I didn't see that coming.

Living out in the boonies is awesome. You can see the stars, wildlife everywhere, even if your neighbors are polar (and political) opposites you can get along... but I miss sidewalks, city water, and things being open after 9 pm.

I grew up poor and became a collector - coins, sports memorabilia, wine, chess sets, sake sets(?!)... but they all sit in boxes I rarely open. I am slowly getting rid of everything, but keeping the most valuable stuff for my stepkids and daughter. Honestly, I don't even care what they do with it...

I gave up arguing with people online in particular. It's a completely pointless exercise. If somebody tries to provoke me with insults or whatever I just ignore them, or block them if possible.

You don't have to look hard to find great music that is as far as the moon as mainstream or pop.

You're not getting dumber, our brains just have less room and time. I moved to audible books cause I missed reading so much but didn't have the time or headspace to sit with a book ❤️

Sober alcoholic here, quitting drinking saved my life.

As a musician, I stopped going to live concerts. The people controlling the sound system are idiots. They think they have to make the music sound like a car stereo with all bass cranked up. Cannot hear all the instruments. But the drummer's kick drum is at 130 db volume.

Drive? After all the years working on my feet there are days I barely have the walk or crawl.

and quality means it can be repaired instead of replaced.

You won't read this but I have to say it, anyway: your kids are people! (Edit: missing word)

Do what you want but this seems to be less about bowling and more just hanging out and catching up with your friends. If they do that in other ways, or just don't care to at all, is perfectly fine, of course. But calling being with your friends a 'meh event' says more about that person than about the event itself, in my opinion.

The older i get the more I understand older couples who only spend time with their partners. He's the only one I never get tired of being around

Well, if you did what you complain of when you were younger, but you don’t now, you can’t say it’s “low intelligence “ . It’s maturity and you might not be where you think you are.

I only stopped putting up the tree when we took in a stray about 2 years ago, first thing she did was climb on my new curtains, I’ve seen her curiosity level, and her skill in parkour, an Xmas tree will be a total disaster
