The Minsky Moment

The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.

Celebrities (people famous just for being famous) in general, and royals in particular.

Ditto.
Since I am not a British or Spanish subject, the huge coverage of the British and Spanish royal families (the former nearly constant) baffles me.

Any of the Kardashians
Kanye West (who's effectively a Kardashian)
Any of the Trumps
Any anti-vaxxer

I'm sure there are more, but that's a good start.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Hello Meri, some good choices there.  :)

Hi Meri.

I'm indifferent to the Kardashians and Kanye West, except that I don't like the fact they made ass implants somewhat popular.

I'm hostile, contemptuous and alarmed about Trump.

I'm disappointed by Aaron Rogers.

What is says in the title, nominate someone you don't give a f*** about and don't want to hear anything more of?

I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

I would say anyone from any entertainment reality tv show.
I make an exception about documentaries retracing the life/work of some group of people, like say, police officers on indian reservations, but I don't give a flying fuck about X from popular reality tv show CBA doing anything.
Also, I really don't care if a particular actor or actress is banging some other public personality.

Djokovic is a good choice; I was watching the news last night and suddenly he was on spouting his theories about vaccinations so I switched off.

I can remember that because it was really recent.

That Milo chap that Marti was keen on. Justin Timberlake...who is he?

Nothing against Djokovic, but I just don't care about all the fuss over whether he can play or not.

Any celebs who have become insufferable elitists, out of touch.
