Why Obtuse Skills are Bad
A Guide to Not Being a Pain in the Backside
Definition: Obtuse skills are like a box of rocks - they're hard to grasp, hard to work with, and will likely give you a headache.
Example: A person with obtuse skills might say "I'm fine" when you ask how they're doing, but really they're secretly plotting their next coffee shop heist.
Causes: Obtuse skills are often the result of a combination of factors, including:
- Apathy: "Meh, I don't care about you or your feelings."
- Lack of empathy: "Why do you even care about my feelings? You're probably not even listening."
- Excessive sarcasm: "Oh, I'm so sorry you're having a bad day... NOT."
Symptoms:
- Your friends and family are tired of playing "Guess What's Wrong" with you.
- You've been kicked off of every online gaming platform for being a troll.
- Every time you try to make small talk, the conversation ends with a confused silence.
Conclusion: Obtuse skills are bad. Don't be that person. Learn how to be more... enunciated.
