An internet message board species, who has very little in the way of education and hardly any thought control. This species is a rarity that is subject to scientific behavioural problems. Humans are advised to pleasure such a species with humour and sarcasm, as facts and honesty are not absorbed by this concerned species. If you happen to meet the species concerned away from an internet message board, then I do declare that be a miracle. Urban Dictionary

Adj. Used to describe someone who is full of concern. One who often takes others into consideration. They are concerned of how others are feeling at all times. Urban Dictionary

Concerning- used as an adjective as opposed to a verb or a phrase as in "of concern". (Used by new age morons that have no real applied usage if sentence construction.) Urban Dictionary

Posh term describing with much sarcasm tha you couldn't care less originated in stimulating conversation. Urban Dictionary

Ostensibly it means caring about society. Being concerned about the things that are wrong with society such as increasing violent crime, an increasingly stressed health service, the marginalisation of the disadvantaged members of society, the list is pretty much endless; those who are truly socially concerned then try to do something about it. Unfortunately as in the case of the chattering classes the socially concerned individuals only pay lip-service to whatever cause is fashionable and they do sfa. Urban Dictionary

An expression used in PR, especially political, when the person or organization is expected to care about a situation and comment on it, but: 1) They don't actually give a shit, because the situation in question isn't particularly relevant to them, but it is politically imprudent to say that outright. 2) They definitely will not be doing anything about it. Has become a generic response to any negative situation the person/organization is asked about but cannot or would not actually be concerned at all about. Urban Dictionary
