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

Person 1: "my phone is about to die, but I need to keep working on my aeronautical engineering homework!"

Person 1: "but my charger is down stairs!"
Person 2: "god, you're so selectively lazy."

Selective hearing

Selective hearing is a bit like WHEN UR DUMB ASS PARENTS call ur name and u say what and they don't say anything till u go to them.
Parent:"Jimmy!! "
Jimmy:what!!

*silence*
Jimmy:WHAT MOM/DAD!!

*Silence again
(This is literally selective hearing)

selective britishness

As stated before, a good example of English Selective Britishness is the use of country names in wins/losses in sport (England won, Britain lost/Britain won, Scotland lost)... Yet it works both ways!

For example, in a recent Televised poll, many (NOT all, I'm not generalising!) Scots said they want all ties to be cut from England, to preserve Scottish heritage etc... Yet these same people expect Scottish TV presenters etc. to remain presenting English TV!?
Scotland is currently still part of Britain, hence their own ability to display traits of Selective Britishness... That's not to say England isn't guilty!

Let's keep Britain firmly in place... it means more public holidays for both countries! :D

Selective Hearing

The act of listening to only the things a person wants to hear. This can lead to a complete topic change.
Matt: Yo are you watching this Rockies game? It's nuts!

Ben: uhh. I don't think this long distance relationship is going to work out.

Matt: (thinking to himself) Damn. That's some crazy selective hearing if I ever saw it.
