I would be more apathetic if I weren't so lethargic

From an episode of Family Guy where Peter tries to "educate" himself on proper edicate and ends up picking up a New Yorker. Being Peter, he turns to the comic section of the New Yorker and find "I would be more apathetic if I weren't so lethargic." And waits a few days trying to understand the meaning of it.

>"I would like a copy of the New Yorker Please"
>>"Okay"
>"I would be more apathetic if I weren't so lethargic? What?"
>"Ohhh I get it, can I get a jugs?"
>> "Sure thing"

voter apathy

What happens to a General Election when your choice on the ballot paper boils down to a choice between the Conservative Party and a conservative party.

Let me get this straight - I live in a Tory majority and my choices are Labour, Conservative, Lib Dem, UKIP or Veritas, and we know the Tories will get a 20,000 majoity even if I vote Lib Dem?

apartheid

obviously # 2 is a racist bastard who thinks being white entitles him to whatever he wants. apartheid was really a system of government designed by the Nationalist party to keep the white minority of South Africa in power. It was an unjust system that dehumanized millions of blacks just because some Afrikaners were scared of being a minority. Apartheid was abolished in 1994 and since then South Africa has had its share of social problems but racial equality is becoming more and more prominent.

Hey you kaffir, you can't go there that's only for white Europeans.

Screw you bitch apartheid is over!

Gender Apartheid

A person still stuck on the archaic gender binary. Also known as a TERF.

Instead of admitting to their transphobia, TERFs will cling to the gender equivalent of old school South African Racial Apartheid.

Those TERFs claim to be Gender-Critical, but really it's Gender Apartheid and we won't stand for it.

Paramedic apathy

When the general public misunderstands how you (a paramedic) interact with the general public, or when a paramedic is socially misunderstood. There are many applicable situations to paramedic apathy, though it is mostly a lack of perspective from the general public, not actual apathy from the people who you call on to save your life.

When for the 10,000th time some jackass at a party asks you to tell them the gnarliest thing you have ever seen, And you inarticulately tell a lame story about a guy who was shot in the head but was still talking. Since they can't relate, and at some point you smile, you have inadvertently performed paramedic apathy.

Demanding lunch before the next call, while still joking about the corpse you just determined dead in a pool of semen, is Paramedic apathy.

Terry... I wish his dog lived, cuz that guy was a dick to us. Dogs are way better than people.

Danno... That is just the Paramedic apathy coming through. Now let's go eat chicken cuz it's Tuesday!

Ampathetic

Showing no feelings of empathy. The state of mind with no compassion in how their words and actions affect others.

A cold hearted person is very ampathetic. That ampathetic teacher taught class with no empathy in how her words affected the student's lives.

apathycore

Apathycore is used to describe music developed by the jaded fallout of Emocore. Grabbing mostly obscure indie rock, and older obscure bands(ie Captain Beefheart). To be Apathycore as a person you must be completely jaded.

Apathycore kid in calm voice:So are you going to rape me?
Potential Rapist: Wow, your apathycore.
