- andrewflnr 3y agoYou don't actually, is the thing. No humans exist who think that. If they did, that would imply something, wouldn't it, if only that there are some really weird people obsessed with me?
- nitwit005 3y agoYes, the person lying to create a rumor doesn't think it's true, but the people who believe the lie do. They treat it as credible, just as you suggested. Who wouldn't be interested in a giraffe that can type? You deserve your fame.
- andrewflnr 3y agoYou're being obtuse. Not all rumors are deliberate lies. Those that are are evidence of something else. Remember that the only question was "are rumors worth thinking about", which includes meta-level concerns.
