"What is love?"

No. I can predict the responses to this.

"Definition: 'Love' is making a shot to the knees of a target 120 kilometres away using an Aratech sniper rifle with a tri-light scope. [...] [L]ove is knowing your target, putting them in your targeting reticle, and together, achieving a singular purpose against statistically long odds."

What should I have for dinner today? Jokes aside probably something unimportant like: which stock on arbitrary stock market will perform the best from the first to last day of 2024.

I don't really want to know the answer to the big philosophical questions, because what if the answer is depressing? "The meaning of life is arbitrary and nothing you do matters"

I don't really care to know the truth about something controversial because I'd be no different from a fanatic arguing blindly for their side. Noone else knows I know.

I don't want to know the secrets to some revolutionary technology. The explanation would be lost on me anyway and it's not like I could explain it to someone who can build a fusion reactor or whatever.

I don't really want to know the truth about why by ex left me or other events in life. If I had infinite questions I'd start here, but there are too many of these and none of them are that uncomfortable to live with.
