    Yeah pretty much. Im interested in what people know, rather than what they ARE. I don’t care what people are. I don’t care about people. People largely suck. If you’re the type of person who bleats on about actors and actresses and who’s marrying who and who’s doing what… you’re more than braindead, you’re a drain on the living.

    Show me your skills. Show me your hobbies. Show me what you make. Show me your passions, your art, your accomplishments. I don’t give a fuck about you as a thing for me to objectify. I don’t care about your body or your preferences. I care about your intellect and passion.

      If someone’s legal name was Robert, but they told you they go by Rob, would that be the same to you?

        Why would you assume I wouldn’t call people by what they preferred to be called by?

      Right because people are just a sum of their accomplishments. And you said you don’t want to know anything about anyone. Now you’re pulling back from that to a different shittily explained opinion

        You just seem perpetually offended, and now you’re twisting my words. I don’t care about people. I don’t want to know them on a personal level. The only people I care about as persons are my wife and children. I care about their wellbeing, I care about their fears and who they are as individuals. I care that they are well and healthy and how their lives are progressing.

        I don’t care about that from anyone else. So I don’t give a fuck about who anyone else is as a person. I don’t want to know, don’t care, not relevant.
