We care about that you and Kelly preach ignorance, which is proven to be damaging to you or for the society at large.
Btw, for your Delta example: you don’t need to be proud of your lack of knowledge to admit that you don’t know anything. In your example, there is no sign of proudness.
If she asked you to be one of her backup dancers would you expect people to tsk tsk on their high horse if you laughed and said “I can’t dance. I have no desire to learn how to dance and I have two left feet”?
What’s the difference?
and while you say that’s a crazy example and dismiss it like you do the others, I actually was a part time fitness instructor about a decade ago and I did learn some about choreography, staying on beat to music, creating choreography that changed with the 32 count phrase of music, how to mix my own 32 count music with what is now Adobe Audition, etc and I had plenty of geeks come to my classes bragging about their ignorance when it came to having rythym.
Is that the same in your eyes - being proud of their ignorance?
Totally irrelevant to the topic what I desire.
> What was she suppose to do go out and take an extension course on Microsoft Office?
No. She could just simply admit that she didn’t and doesn’t know what is Excel. She didn’t just do that. She was cocky about it.
> If she asked you to be one of her backup dancers would you expect people to tsk tsk on their high horse if you laughed and said “I can’t dance. I have no desire to learn how to dance and I have two left feet”?
Yeah, because this is cocky. You can say the same thing without being asshole.
> Is that the same in your eyes - being proud of their ignorance?
Yes, if they really bragged about it. You can convey the same information without bragging and being cocky.
If the pilot on Delta had a heart attack and the flight attendant ask me to fly the plane, I would say “here’s the ‘sitch, I don’t know anything about flying a plane”
I have no idea why geeks are getting their panties all twisted because a famous singer doesn’t know Excel.
