Are You a Gossiper or an Intelligent Gossiper?

So that was an unintelligent gossiper, so how can you be an intelligent one? Well, intelligent gossipers as listeners. They are the ones who sit silently in the corner in the friendship group or a gossip circle and just soak up the gossip without actually participating in it by talking. If there is an argument, an intelligent gossiper leaves the situation as soon as he or she senses an argument is brewing. Instead, an intelligent gossiper waits patiently for an unintelligent one to tell them what happened in the argument. The advantage of being an intelligent gossiper is that you can wait for different unintelligent gossipers to come to you and give their side of a particular story and then you can make up your own mind depending on what people have told you. This way, you aren’t present in the argument but you still know what happened anyway and you won’t be drawn into any further conflicts if there is one. Intelligent gossipers store all of the gossip in them and then one day, when they have to use the gossip to their advantage – they will! But when they do that, they will be wise! One drawback with this is, if you are approached by unintelligent gossipers and are told different takes on one particular story, hearing a wrong story and then using it to your advantage to spread it out can be silly and will make you an unintelligent gossiper immediately.

So, to be an intelligent gossiper, you don’t have to talk, you just have to soak up what you hear.  Reading the above, make your mind up, whether you want to be an intelligent gossiper or an unintelligent one.
