Bothered-o-meter

The scale on which you care about a perceived slight or apparent crisis.

In the face of a hysterical friend or family member, inviting them to check your bothered-o-meter is a polite way of assuring them that you're not fazed.

Friend: "So apparently <insert name of a mutual friends partner that you only invited out of politeness> isn't coming to your party. She's telling people that she's ill, but really she just can't be bothered!"

You: "Really? Check my bothered-o-meter.... nope not even registering."

bothered to make the compass spin

A metaphor used to describe the type of dedication put in to something that arguably isn’t worth it.

"The developers of insert game here even bothered to make the compass spin when it comes to insert game mechanic here!"

too long didn't bother reading

Phrase often used on internet message boards to indicate that the poster felt that the previous post addressing him was too long, and therefore he did not read it.

These long posts generally contain a variety of carefully and maturely presented facts on the topic at hand, intended to provide an argument against the poster's views. These posts are generally too long and too content-filled for today's average Joe Internet who is always on the go and never posts more than two lines at a time.

that definition was too long didn't bother reading

when you're this cool, you don't bother with the details

You're just too cool to bother with any details of anything.
And surpass the level of 'Epic coolness'

This line CANNOT be said. Unless you strike a cool pose right after.

Mother: Sweetie, you have weird rocker friends.
Daughter: I'm not a rocker!
Mother: ...Sorry. You have weird goth friends.
Daughter: I'm not goth!
Mother: Then what are you?!
Daughter: Mom! When you're this cool, You don't bother with the details. ;D

botheredness

When you simply can't be bothered to do something.

I just haven't got the botheredness to go to do the supermarket.
