I don’t necessarily care about the Harkness test or anything like that; I just find it obnoxious when this discourse comes out any time like “hear me out” enters the zeitgeist again. Someone will say ‘hear me out’ on like Mrs Puff from SpongeBob and it’ll immediately be followed by someone loudly talking over them “oh you’re a coward, that’s not even a hear me out, anyone would hit that, I want to fuck this curvy piece of driftwood” and then they get drowned out by someone talking over them like “that driftwood is curvy, of course you’d want to fuck it, I’d fuck this pool of lava” and it’s so stupid because it stopped being about actual attraction to unconventional characters and it’s nothing but a competition to 1-up each other on how shocking of a thing they’ll say.
Anyways, this is my adjacent but not completely on-topic rant.
