Can you call in sick with that?
Dude, I don't know, how would you spin that? "Dear Boss, I suffered from an acute lack of responsibility last night..."
I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

It's a condition! You're not responsible!

Meanwhile, I have crunchy pita chips to eat for my lunch, but I'm waiting until the people around me leave so I don't irritate them with my CRONCHING noises.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
An acute lack of responsibility, for which I am not responsible!
I think I have this condition all the time.

you are very considerate, Dana. Me, I'd crunch and send "deal" vibes.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It's a condition! You're not responsible!
"Dear boss, I stayed up way too late last night. However, it's not my fault, as there is no such thing as free will."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I learnt about tramp stamps after having moved to Cali. Wifebeater is mostly divorced from its origin, but not entirely because I want a better easily recognised term. Tramp stamp is totally not because just about every time I hear them referred to it's in a "Fwarrrr, that's hot!" or "As if!" context. So not divorced from sex.
I think I am a part of this Raunch Culture, and I bear no great because of it. Sadly, I'm learning that people have thought I was in RC from 20 years ago, so I guess I have lost time to make up for. Because 20 years ago it wouldn't have occurred to me that being found attractive (or just feeling attractive) was useful or purposeful.

"Dear boss, our lives are pretty insignificant and meaningless in the grand scheme of things. So really it doesn't matter if I don't come in to work today."
