I'll stick with getting bothered about what I want to get bothered about, thanks ever so much.
I've worked with homeless people for many decades and their issues are very important to me, and that is entirely ok. I don't need to switch my interests to match yours.
This is a 69 year old sick old man, a wheelchair bound man who got bitten all over the face and disfigured and may not even heal up or recover, and was probably where he was because there isn't anywhere else for him to be. He's someone's son, someone's brother, and probably someone's father. I feel that what happened to him is awful, and important, and a lot more important than some doped up drunk who says she's a vampire. And I think the old guy deserves just a modicum of respect and concern.
And I think a lot of the responses here are infantile to juvenile, callous, insensitive, and uncaring.
