People who proudly boast about how they never spend a dime on Epic Games, in their store, but has hundreds of free games to play with no intent to play them. Like, I don’t know who is supposed to be impressed by that. Not to mention, that’s not really a good method of protesting if you’re someone who hates Epic Games.

You’re still spending the time and effort, not to mention even bothering to have an account with them to begin with, to redeem free games that they give away. Who are you seriously trying to impress or what message are you trying to convey? Because all I see are contradictions and ironies.

    Thinking something is stupid and uninteresting is a completely normal thing. However, if you do have knowledge of that horribly dull thing, that knowledge is of value. Who knows, suddenly you might impress someone with that knowledge. Or you might be able to carry a conversation with someone who is interested in it.

    I know almost nothing about sports or celebrities, but that’s not a good thing. I would be able to talk more with my colleagues if I had known more about sports. I’ve tried to learn more but it’s hard when I don’t find it interesting.

      you seem to presume that we are infinite beings with infinite time and capacity for knowledge.

      we’re not. we’re finite. we can only know so much, and knowing one thing means not knowing another.
