The act of doing something really stupid, and facing severe consequences because of it such as injury or worse.
Person 1: Dude, have you heard about Tom??? He broke his leg after he tried to use a skateboard on a a trampoline!

Most commonly used in digital parties such as Discord, Xbox, PS4. Selective input occurs when a person chooses only to speak when they feel comfortable, usually within a Safe Space. It is used by cowards, and people who cannot generate a unique comeback. A user of selective input is most often also a lurker.
Josh was just roasted and did not respond choosing to use selective input.
Selective Input in use
Gavin: Your literally trash at fortnite, and you dont play any sports.
Josh:
Patrick: Yeah he is pretty bad.
Josh:

Gavin: Patrick how did you die you absolute bot.
Josh: ... Patrick is addicted to Fortnite and has anger issues.
Gavin: Yeah, Patrick you are a Nutist.
Patrick: No I’m not!
(An argument between Patrick and Gavin ensues)

Lindsay the supervisor would order people she hated to do more work than everyone else (move the goalposts on them) and was quicker to try and get them fired if she hated them (a negative feeling towards them she would always deny having or say someone else felt that way if asked simply, plainly, and directly) whether they did their jobs as well as everyone else or not. She lived by the same kind of selective double standard she would always try and poke fun at others for having.

Much like a regular misanthrope except it's hatred or mistrust over most of mankind instead of all of mankind in general.
MAN 1:How can your girlfriend love you? She's a misanthrope!
MAN 2: No, she's a selective misanthrope, there's a difference.
