WWAW not particularly caring about a huge disaster because it's from a country you have zero connection with

Yeah, someone I know has been to Morocco several times and liked the place a lot, and was upset about the earthquake there recently. I couldn't even feign caring. Obviously it's horrible that kids and stuff were killed, but I've never been there, have no desire to go there and really don't feel any differently to how I feel about the earthquake in Pompeii. It's something that happened somewhere else to other people.

We were watching the Scotland vs. England match and when the players were standing in the center of the field doing a moment of silence for the victims of the earthquake in Morocco and the flood in Libya, the Scottish fans booed. Pretty funny shit.

I didn't give a shit about Morocco either until the owner of a brewery I like's wife was missing in the mountains for 24 hours. She's fine just no way of making contact and I suddenly didn't care again

Yeah we pretty much knew it going in. Was glad to see England stopped having their gay little kneeling sessions before kickoff. I wonder if Scotland would stand a chance if England could only use actual Englishmen.
Half the Scottish side are really English. I would love to see a native American sports side. I think there was a cricket one that toured in the Victorian times. Or maybe that was the Aussies and a aboriginal one

I said this at work once and everyone looked at me like I was an asshole. I think it was about the Ukraine shit.
I said this to a friend and he didn’t understand what I meant. I used an example of a plane crash.

I’ll hear on the news there was a deadly plane crash and feel tense for a moment until I hear it’s like in India or some other brown place, sigh in relief and move on with my day.
