    My college dorm once tired to hold a Society for the Apathetic meeting, but it was canceled due to lack of interest.(The Procrastinators Anonymous meeting was postponed indefinitely.)

    One day his mother saidWhen Pierre climbed out of bed“Good morning, darling boy, you are my only joy”Pierre said, “I don’t care!”

    “What would you like to eat?”“I don’t care!”“Some lovely cream of wheat?”“I don’t care!”“Don’t sit backwards on your chair”“I don’t care!”“Or pour syrup on your hair”“I don’t care!”

    “You are acting like a clown”“I don’t care!”“And we have to go to town”“I don’t care!”“Don’t you want to come, my dear?”“I don’t care!”“Would you rather stay right here?”“I don’t care!”So his mother left him there

    His father said, “Get off your headOr I will march you up to bed!”Pierre said, “I don’t care!”

    “I would think that you could see”“I don’t care!”“Your head is where your feet should be!”“I don’t care!”“If you keep standing upside down”“I don’t care!”“We’ll never ever get to town”“I don’t care!”

    “If only you would say, I care”“I don’t care!”“I’d let you fold the folding chair”“I don’t care!”So his parents left him thereThey didn’t take him anywhere
