Selectively lazy

A selectively lazy person is one who has large aspirations in life, but these aspirations are never realized due to minor inconveniences the person is not willing to willing to work passed.

Person 1: "my phone is about to die, but I need to keep working on my aeronautical engineering homework!"
Person 2: "go grap your charger!"
Person 1: "but my charger is down stairs!"
Person 2: "god, you're so selectively lazy."

selective knowledge

just like 'selective hearing', but with regards to having knowledge. Admitting or not, to having that knowledge, as one seems fit.

Linda was trained on each part of her new job. However, she forgot part B, so she claims she wasn't trained for it. She's using 'selective knowledge' to cover her ass.

selective spamming

When you share some piece of general information from the web, with only a selected set of people.

It could be an article that appeared on The Telegraph and one would think that everyone would have read it - but you still copy the link and send it to a couple of interested friends.

Other people might consider it spam, but your friends perhaps like it!

Martin: Did you read this about Europe .. link

Martina: Nice read! This selective spamming of inboxes is quite useful
