Despise beyond belief? Hurting animals. Hunting and fishing are fine, I’m talking about kicking puppies type thing
boy do i have a movie for you
almost everyone pays to have animas abused and hurt for them. Thinking, feeling animals. It’s horrifying. And much worse than just kicking puppies.
Being perfectly fine not knowing something and not caring to get answers aka willful ignorance.
Why don’t you want to know?!!! How is it that the thought proceding “I don’t know” is not immediately “but I want to find out”?! We can’t know everything but we have so many answers at our fingertips. As if you don’t want to absorb as much of it as you can?!
It immediately makes me think that the person I am speaking to is not worth my time. Chances are, the more they’re willfully ignorant about, the more likely they’ll also not care about how their actions affect others. Major red flag for me.
Edit: I should’ve mentioned I was thinking of particular types of situations where the person has the mentality of “oh man, I don’t know, it’d be cool to know that” and proceeds to not do anything about it or when they are regurgitating something they heard on foxnews with such blind conviction without bothering to look into it further
I understand the sentiment, but there are things not worth knowing. I don’t care who was drafted in 1987 by the San Diego NFL team. I don’t care about the extras who appear in the 1957 film Witness for the Prosecution. I don’t care what you had for breakfast. My point is, I think your issue is less about curiosity, but of values. People who don’t value the things you care about, or worse, don’t even value the things they purport to care about.
You’re right. Sorry, I should’ve mentioned I was thinking of particular types of situations where the person has the mentality of “oh man, I don’t know, it’d be cool to know that” and proceeds to not do anything about it.
Or like you say, having strong convictions about something but not having done the reading themselves. I don’t mind listening to opposing opinions if they actually believe them and didn’t just regugitate something they heard on foxnews.
I think in most cases, curiosity is what drove human development to such heights. And to just stop it at “oh yeah, I dunno hey” takes a very particular type of person… A type of person I just can’t understand!
Thanks for pointing that out though, I hadn’t quite fully figured out how to articulate what I was trying to say!

My effort in any given day is limited, and gone are the days of high school/college where I would just stay up all night because I found some random rabbit hole of trivia I wanted to know more about. Like yeah, there’s plenty of things I would gladly download to my brain given an instantaneous button to do so, but a much smaller list of things I actually consider worth the effort, even if I’m interested
People who write poorly get some extra negative love.
The emails? The ask? ‘Effort’ this action? The Spend? Literally? The ‘based’ clique-signal? You suck.
You can totally say “Nah. I’m good”, but I’m just really curious. What comes up in your mind if you imagine yourself reading one of those emails and being perfectly okay with it?
those emails
I’m gonna stop right there. I’m good.
I’m having trouble parsing your sentence… Are these examples? If so, they don’t sound like poor or lazy writing, it’s more stylized writing. They’re not vague or ambiguous, they’re actually very clear and concise (even if they use non-standard grammar)
non-standard grammar
Is that like Alternate Facts?
His comment is top tier irony. It was very poorly written.
Weird. Help me out, there.
