At some point or another, everyone gets to the stage in life where they stop caring. Yes, that glorious moment when you actually realize, "I just don't give a damn." From cooling themselves off with a subway vent to drinking martinis at the gym, these individuals have thrown caution, convention, and expectations to the wind and do things their own way. We have so much respect for these people, who couldn't care less what anyone else thinks of them. They could teach us a lesson or two about not caring about other people's opinions.
Pimp My Rocking Horse
These guys are old, and you know what that means? They've lost the ability to care. This guy doesn't want to travel around on a normal electric chair because that's boring. He wants to ride around on a rocking horse, and so he shall.
With his wife leading the way, this guy's childhood dreams were coming true - definitely the most fly mode of transport in all of the city. And surprise surprise... he doesn't care what you think about him.
Who Knew Spiderman Was At The Birth Of Jesus
This kid thought to himself, "how boring are all of the traditional Nativity characters?" Rather than being satisfied with the role he was cast (a shepherd, an angel, etc.), he decided to take things into his own hands and become Spiderman.
If your version of the Nativity story doesn't include Spiderman, frankly, we feel sorry for you. This kid brightened up his day and the day of everyone else by letting his true superhero self shine through.
Grandma Down, We Repeat, Grandma Down
Let's be honest, is it that important that everyone who started in the photo actually ends up in the photo? These people clearly don't think so.
Just as Grandma slips off her seat in the photo, the rest of the family keeps on smiling as though nothing had happened. Shine on, queens! Never let anything dim your light.
Happy Hour Isn't Confined To The Bar
Health is wealth, they say, but what about that inner glow? Is that really achieved from the gym? Or is it achieved from sipping cocktails? This lady knows.
Rather than sweating it out like the rest of the peasants, she's sipping on her cocktail and living her best life. Who needs gains when you can have strained fruits and alcohol. She definitely knows what's up.
If It Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It
Technology moves fast, and at some point, this man simply said, "I don't want to keep up." Well, hats off to him. He's living his truth.
Why have an iPod if it's so hard to use? If he's happy carrying his huge stereo around with him, then we are too. The old-school headphones really top off this retro look.
You Expect Me To Sleep On A Bench?
If a flight is canceled, there's no way you'll catch us sleeping on an airport bench. When the equipment is at hand, why would anyone refuse to use it?
That's right. Set your tent up in the airport, and you have your own little mini camping experience. Don't let anyone tell you this isn't allowed; you're doing your own versatile thing, and we love to see it.
Don't Rush Me, I'm Very Busy
Time waits for no one, but these people will wait for this lady to finish her solitaire game.
Don't let life stress you out; just be like this woman. Looking after ourselves is the most important thing, and boy, does she know it.
Traveling In Style Each And Every Time
Car seats are so last year. Who needs safety and seatbelts when you can ride in an armchair on the back of a truck.
This man looks more like an evil villain as he sits proudly and regally on the back of this truck. He is traveling in style, and he doesn't care if that chair could go flying off the truck at any moment.
Why Do Inanimate Objects Have All The Fun
Life is hard for a human, not a cello. Cellos get an easy ride, and this guy wanted to get in on that magic.
Perfect nap spot? Yes. Experiencing the joy of being an inanimate object? Yes. Looking like a dead body? Yes. Could you ask for anything else?
No Matter The Weather, It's Crab Time
So what if there's a hurricane; it's just a little water. Does that mean we can't still enjoy ourselves? Absolutely not.
Hurricane Sandy was not gonna stop these people from their delicious crab meat, even if it meant they had to sit in canoes to eat. Good for those guys, living the dream and supporting local businesses.
Only God Can Save Me
We're never in control of anything, really, so why pretend? Why not sit on the edge of a balcony that looks like it will fall off the building at any moment.
Everything is meaningless, plus the fall on the way down might actually be a bit of an adrenaline rush to brighten up the gloomy day.
You. Shall. Not. Pass.
Never have Gandalf's infamous words rung more true than when this woman decided that nobody would get past her. If she couldn't walk, no one else would.
She's old, and she's bold. She does things her way and all the more respect for her. Everyone else can wait; she's in control here.
Only In Florida
Who decided that the only animal we can ride is a horse? When did that become a thing? This lady wants to ride a zebra, and so she did.
Just because you're not used to seeing it, doesn't mean it's a bad idea. In fact, it seems like an incredible idea to us.
If It Feels Good, It Feels Good
We humans have to really hold onto whatever pleasures we can find in life, and when we find them, we can't think about what other people think.
This man just wanted to cool off on a sweltering summer day, so he stood on a subway grate and let the wind do its thing. He couldn't have cared less who was staring at him or taking photos.
The Party Must Go On
When it's time to party, it's time to party. The shoe situation is simply unimportant. Yes, even if the shoe is halfway up your leg.
Who cares about shoes, anyway? They are totally overrated, in our opinion. If the possibility to dance is there, then dancing will be done.
Carter Will Do Anything For A Banana
This is Carter. He knocked on his neighbor's door to ask if he could have a banana and then left. He didn't even stick around to chat.
And guess what? He got his banana. That one cool little kid knew what he wanted, and didn't care how he got it.
His Wife Is Trapped Inside, But Sometimes You Have To Do It For The Gram
Death could come to us at any time, but when we beat death in a beautiful stunt-movie style way, there's only one thing to do. That's right, take a photo.
Yes, even if your car flipped over. Yes, even if your wife is still trapped inside. Some photos are more important than other things, and this old man definitely knew that.
A Man's Gotta Eat
Pancake time is always a good idea, no matter the location. In our opinion, sitting in a lecture actually seems like the perfect time for pancakes.
Maybe it goes against school protocol, but who cares about that? This guy wanted pancakes and went for it. He deserves an A in our book.
Dress Code Not Required
Dress codes are famously the most boring thing that exists in the workplace. So if they're not required, why wear one?
Does being a software engineer really require that you wear a suit? No. So this guy with his band t-shirt and crazy hair is a shining beacon to the rest of us to live our fashionista truths.
Give Him A Break, He's Tired
This guy beat the system. He figured out how to avoid work and make himself look more intimidating than he actually is.
Want to take a nap? No problem. A cardboard cutout of yourself will definitely do the job; then, you can sleep all you want. He doesn't care what you think, and why should he? He's incredibly well-rested.
Embodying Artistic Freedom And Creativity
What, you think she didn't mean to draw a tree? Oh no, she did. It's not that her martini glass didn't work out; it's that she didn't want to draw a martini glass.
A drink on the beach is a weird concept. A tree on the beach, though? That's where the artistic gold lays, and boy did she know it. Stand out from the crowd sister, don't play by the rules. You got this.
The Unstoppable Granny-Mobile
Who needs a car when you can have all the open-air luxury you need with an electric chair? Not this lady.
Holding up the traffic doesn't bother her at all, she's going at her own pace and you can't stop her. Queen of the road- ride on.
When You Can't Even Pretend
"What do we care about?" *Silence* Yeah, that's right- nothing. Don't try to hide it, we know it's true, and we're right there with you.
Let's not pretend to be enthusiastic when we all actually know it's much more relatable not to care.
The Medieval Struggle Is Real
Yeah, he's got an arrow in his shoulder, but you know what? He looks badass. And you know what else? He knows it.
Why act like you're in pain, or you care when you know you're the coolest person sitting in the emergency room. I mean, look at the weapon his kid is holding. Who wouldn't be proud?
No One Said What Cup The Refill Has To Go In
There are no rules against this, so why not take advantage? Yes, your fizzy drink may have remnants of chicken in it, but is that really such a bad thing?
This guy saw the rules and decided to bend them, and his prize is the gloriously enormous amount of soda.
Too Old To Live By Your Standards
Yes, we all know it's frowned upon to look up explicit images in a public place, but ultimately, if you don't care about what other people think, it's totally fine.
Well, that might not be true, but this man thinks it is. The Apple store might find him a new lady friend, and who are we to try and stop him?
"Who Cares About The Fire, Push Harder!"
sThis child didn't care about the fact that the house opposite hers was on fire, nor that the fire trucks had arrived. Even the noise and commotion weren't enough to distract her.
This girl wanted to swing, and swing she did. And boy, do we respect her for that.
Test It Before You Buy
Maybe this man really is thinking about buying this chair; maybe he just wants to take a break. Whatever the reason, we don't judge him.
In fact, we salute him. Sitting on his chair store throne like a king, this guy knows what's up. And he doesn't care what you think.
Nothing Is More Important Than Sleep
Attendance is important at college; you have to make sure your name is checked off. You also have to make sure you get enough sleep.
Combining the two? Genius. The professor probably doesn't even know there is a person sleeping on the floor.
Just Because You Are An Officer Doesn't Mean You Can't Get A Ticket
If you thought that police cars are exempt from parking tickets, you would be wrong, as this ticket officer proved.
Cop car? He doesn't care. If it's not parked legally, he's giving you a ticket, and he's never looking back.
Why Should Kids Have All The Fun
So much fun stops once you reach adulthood, and this queen decided that she wasn't going to let this happen to her.
Why should kids be the only ones who sit in the shopping cart when their mom does the shopping? They shouldn't. This girl is living her best life, and we're here for it.
It's Still A Candle
When you're a kid, parents will go the extra mile to make sure everything is perfect. Until they just can't be bothered anymore.
No birthday candles? It's okay; we have a big scented candle. It's basically the same thing anyway. Stick it on a cake; they probably won't even notice.
"They See Me Rollin', They Hatin'"
This Italian grandpa rolls with the toughest crew. They're dressed in black, he's dressed in white, he's the unique part of the pack.
They have motorbikes; he has an electric chair. I think it's pretty clear who is the biggest and badest here.
Celebrate The Little Things In Life
Does this guy care what you think of him? No. Does he care that you know he's done his business today? Yes.
Does he care if it's too much information for you? Not even slightly.
Keeping That Positive Attitude
The beautiful image of a boat called 'No Worries' sinking in the sea is a true example that a positive attitude can fix any problem.
Maybe the boat won't make it, but you know what, it won't make it with a smile. And there really is nothing more iconic than that.
Anarchist Grandma Won't Follow Your Rules
Some people disobey 'No Smoking' signs, but this grandma is way above that. She disobeys the 'No Sleeping' signs.
She doesn't care if you don't eat in her bed; if she wants to sleep at your table, then she absolutely will.
It's Always The Right Weather For The Top Down
Cruising with the top down is necessary if the car is convertible, and if you think a bit of snow will stop that, you're wrong.
Come rain or shine, if the top can go down, it will go down, and life will be lived to the fullest.
Mom Not Phased By This Violence
These guys tried to prank his mom by setting up this gruesome scene right outside her house. Her reaction?
Just took a picture and walked straight inside. Cares given? Not even one.
When You Forget To Do Your Laundry
Washing day? No clothes to wear? No problem. Just throw on a garbage bag, you'll be fine.
Well, if there are no rules against it, then it must be fine. This guy is rocking it, anyway.
It's Never Too Late To Find Out
So yeah, this guy is old. Does that mean he has all questions answered? Absolutely not. He wants to know what men want in bed, and he'll find out.
Even if that means reading it publicly on the bus, he doesn't care what you think; he wants the truth.
Every Girl Has Needs
If the pleasure isn't coming from outside, a girl's gotta take matters into her own hands. Brochures for some self-loving fun have to be looked at.
Yes, you could argue a basketball game isn't the best time or place to look. Our answer? If she doesn't care, neither should you.
She Just Wants To Eat Her Soup In Peace
Great, fine, someone is giving a speech. Great, fine, people are interested. This woman? She just wants to eat.
This lady showed us where her priorities stand, and we give her a lot of respect for that. Food first, always.
Getting A Ladder Is Too Much Effort
How boring is it that we have to change the clocks forward and back twice a year? So dull.
Solution? Don't change it. Just put a sign underneath letting people know they have to do the math themselves (people are so lazy nowadays).
This Kid Is In His Happy Place
Video games give kids the chance to escape the world for a while and be happy. If they don't have the game at home, they can just play at the store.
There isn't a chair at the store? Just lay on the floor instead. There's a solution to every problem if only we're creative enough.
Prom Photos Are Lame Anyway
This old man doesn't care about your prom photos, he cares about his own phone and going about his own business.
Let's be honest, his blue coat and grey trousers are a way cooler outfit than the classic black prom dress anyway. You go, granddad, you're killing it.
Any Time Is Nap Time
Work is such a drag, especially when you've been to a great party last night. Why should work always take priority? It shouldn't.
This queen took matters into her own hands and decided that her beauty sleep was more important than anything else, napping on top of her desk in a defiant and iconic way.
A Good Chef Finds His Kitchen Anywhere
School lunches can be gross, so this one kid didn't care about protocol, and decided to make his own lunch.
Pulling his George Foreman grill out, he started making himself grilled cheese, and we guess that everyone else in the cafeteria was jealous.
When There's Nothing Else To Do: Drink
Okay, so Romania had some flooding. Does that really mean that everyone has got to stop enjoying themselves? Nope.
Now is the absolutely perfect time to start drinking, and you better believe that these guys know it. No flood will stop them from getting their drinks in, and we respect them for that.
Your White Lines Mean Nothing To Me
We can't let the system control us every time. So what, they've put the white lines for us to park on one side of the road? If the other side looks better, that's the side the people will park on.
These rebels don't care what the council says, and their cars will go wherever they want them to. Now that is strength in numbers.
Taking The Pizza Out For A Walk
There are a few explanations for how this photo came to be; this guy didn't want to carry his pizza, maybe. Or maybe he genuinely wanted to show his pizza the outside world.
Ultimately, this guy doesn't need any explanation. He can do whatever the heck he wants to do, and he doesn't care what you think.
