On this forum there is a guy called Clocker who talks about his computer (or computers?) called Sprocket. I don't know all the details because, personally, it does not interest me. However, I have never been tempted to tell him to "fuck off" because he has decided to present to the forum something that interests him but does not interest me personally.
If I can be allowed to contextualize it even further, I would compare it to when my mates discuss cars but know that I cannot drive or show any interest in learning how to. I have yet to tell my mates to "fuck off" because their discussion did not interest me.
However, Dutch people talking about rabbits are (obviously) exempt from my holier-than-thou rant.
