informed ignorance 

The seemingly oxymoronic state one holds after being briefed on an important issue that they themselves recognize as deserving of further investigation, and then having made the conscious decision not to learn anything more about it.

Example 1.
Dude A: Hey dude, wanna go to that lecture on the ongoing genocide in Darfur?
Dude B: Nah, no thanks dude. I'm happy with my informed ignorance.

Example 2.
Hippies often try to make you feel guilty about your own informed ignorance.

Informed by Facebook

Achieving knowledge about your friends or family through Facebook, whether accidental or on purpose, that you otherwise did not know. Such information is almost always upsetting because regardless of the subject, you probably take exception that you were not personally made aware of what you found.

-'Did you hear that your ex is dating some college dude?'

-'Yah, right. (pause) Where did you here that?'

-I was informed by Facebook. Here, lemme pull up here account. There is a picture of them kissing on his campus. In fact, it's both of their profile pix.
