Most of the time we're either not interested in whatever they're talking about, or we're just curious about what's going on in their head(s.) If it isn't relevant to why we interact with this group, why should we get stirred up about it?
Deciding whether JoeBob is an attentiondramawhore, simply delusional, or telling a truth isn't necessary for us. N/A. Unimportant.
If someone is convinced they're a reincarnation of Elvis, we're usually more interested in why they chose to talk about it to us.
We could choose to believe that all kinds of things outside our experience must be bullsh*t. And that it was our sworn duty as Reality Police to inform them of that. Sure would limit our interactions with a lot of interesting people though.
