Do not shorten it

[emmuzka]

Have I ever written about how I loathe people using "idk" in comments? If you don't care, why the hell are you commenting? I really hope that the song won't be shortened to idk...

EDIT: I have now been informed "idk" it means "I don't know", not "I don't care". I stand corrected. I probably just read it wrong in the first time and have since then read it as I don't care without stopping since. Yeah.

Fall Out boy's new single "I Don't Care" is... good. Not a crown jewel or anything, but good. Also, as I listened the preview to this song like a million times, I also made myself "hear" the song going in other direction just before it was cut off, and now I feel like the song would go "wrong" in this certain point. Also, the lyrics are pretty hilarious. Will want to see Patrick Stump singing them with a straight face.

I almost didn't open the computer this morning. A good thing that I did, since I got I Don't Care to my iPod instead of suffering the whole day with knowing that the song was there but not being able to listen it.


Note to self: The mail attachment with the nice little letter icon in Outlook changes to an un-named file (literally, the file name is "noname") without any hints of what file it's supposed to be when opened in Gmail. The file will open when the extension ".mime" is attached.

I am not saying I'd like them either, but I think it's a kind of statement too. There is a difference (in most cases anyway) whether you are just quiet (many think that as a "yes, I agree") or if you clearly say that this doesn't interest you at all. It sounds like a neutral thing, but at least I think it has a strong feeling of negativity in it.

I might be wrong (heh!), and people may well use it for different purposes - some just to comment something, even thought they don't mean yes nor no or anything in between and some for expressing their dislike of the matter by saying I don't care.
I don't know if anyone got a clue what I was trying to to say, but you are free to say I don't care. : )

...I thought it just meant "I don't know"! But apparently it can mean both. How can I live with teh uncertainty? O_O

I thought it ment 'I don't know' too! :o

Why isn't 'I don't care' shortened to idc? Because they don't care about spelling either? Agh!

I'll listen to the single later :)

Argh. I never even realized that the letters are not logical. Well, my bad.

I thought it meant I don't care, even when it's a k and not a c ?

oh the uncertainty!

No. It means "I don't know". It would be "idc" if it were for "I don't care".
