Apathy

A complete lack of emotion or motivation, whether directed towards a person, activity, or object.

While it can often be confused with Stoicism, apathy is much worse than merely not showing feelings, as the person who is apathetic HAS no feelings.
Sadly, the most likely cause of the world's problems is that no one seems to care about anything anymore. Apathy is truly entropy.

apathy wash

When kitchen implements are not unloaded from the dishwasher because one isn't entirely certain where they are stored, and instead are left in for another cycle until someone else (wife/girlfriend) can put them away.
Wife: Honey, why did all the measuring cups and the slotted spoons go through the dishwasher again?

Husband (aloud): Oh those? Well they still looked a little dirty so I ran them through again. . .

Husband (thinking bubble): . . . and I have no friggin' clue where you put them so I just apathy washed them all.
