People who need work always assume everyone else is like them, and anyone who says otherwise is a liar or defective person. Like morning people, or sports people.
I would happily spend the rest of my life not working.
But presumably you don’t just stare at the wall. “Humans need something to do” is mainly bound to not just sitting around twiddling your thumbs. It’s the reason we get bored, the brain is annoyed at not having anything to focus on.
It doesn’t have to be literal work, just something you find engaging, be it going for a run, tending to houseplants, or completing your entire video game backlog.
And of course there is variation between humans. Some people cope well with having little to do, others always need to do something they find productive.
If anyone told that child to literally sit still and do nothing for an extended period of time, that’s some of the most abysmal parenting I can think of. I’ve literally never heard of it happening to any child except in cases of abuse.
It’s always particularly frustrating when someone accuses you of what they themselves are doing, not as a rhetorical tactic, but because they’re just too goddamn stupid to realize what they’re doing. I can’t just say to you “actually you’re the one missing the point” cause you’ll just go “nuh uh” like a 6 year old and ignore what I’m saying.
So anyway, I guess my point is, you’re probably not qualified to have conversations. Like at all.
yeah see im confused because i thought that’s what we were already talking about, but then people started talking about it again like it wasn’t already understood.
No, you guys were right. I overestimated OP, couldn’t imagine him possibly making such an inane statement. But yeah, he was literally saying that people don’t like sitting and doing absolutely nothing.

I’m pretty sure he’s talking about doing literally nothing, as opposed to not working.
I’m pretty sure no one at all was talking about literally doing nothing, because what a stupid scenario to even consider
Saying exactly what you mean is confusing to you, isn’t it?
It’s confusing why anyone would say such a pointless thing as if people need to be taught it.
The sun shines during the day. Wow, what a powerful and important message.

That is exactly what I said, and exactly what I meant. People need something to do.
Well. In that case, what a stupid and pointless thing to say.
It’s the entire moral of the story.

You are incredibly good at missing the point.

but if you literally had nothing to do in your life, you would grow bored, and start doing something the human condition is to create things.
Why do you think we industrialized?

You’ve made the exact same reply three different times.
Yeah because I got the same reply 3 different times.
yeah see im confused because i thought that’s what we were already talking about, but then people started talking about it again like it wasn’t already understood.
I did not pick up on it.
No, you guys were right. I overestimated OP, couldn’t imagine him possibly making such an inane statement. But yeah, he was literally saying that people don’t like sitting and doing absolutely nothing.
