Passive Listener

When someone should be listening to what you are saying but they are mentally too busy thinking of what they want to say or are interrupting you to get their point across or jump ahead of you telling the story because they can't wait for you to finish. This causes them to ask a question about the thing you are talking about before you are able to get it out or ask about something you said but they missed because they aren't really listening. As opposed to an active listener who is genuinely interested in hearing what you are trying to tell them regarding an incident or a story or information.

You: So I told her don't be all up in my business because. ..
Them: So she left or stayed or what?

You: I'm trying to tell you what happened. Don't be such a passive listener.

Secret listener

Someone who, often accidentally, secretly listens to another person taking doing a turd.

Running a tap whilst doing a turd is a good way to avoid secret listeners.

John: “I need a turd, but I’m worried there might be secret listeners”

Peter: “I understand your concerns, have you thought about running a tap?”

Listen to people who have the outcome, bro

No I do not have to cede the discourse to someone who has a ✌️✊️✌️desirable✌️✊️✌️ outcome so they can sit there and MAKE SOME SHIT UP to make themselves SOUND good (regardless of the truth of their propositions). Get the fuck out of here with that.

A retard "Listen to people who have the outcome, bro"

Hym "Nah, you go fuck yourself with that. You know damn well your ass is just going to lie about anything that makes YOUR SUCCESS (either) look trivial OR as though there are external factors that exist outside of your control that are the direct result of your success. You're SURE AS HELL going to lie if anything makes your wife look like a disreputable slut. Anything that doesn't lend credence to the proposition that your are an extra special guy who's uniquely deserving of your outcome will be dismissed, mocked, or denied. So, no. Fuck you. I don't have to sit there and let a motherfucker lie."

listenative

To be in a mood or state of mind to listen, as opposed to talk. The opposite of talkative.

Today, I don't feel like talking, I feel listenative, so tell me a story. (One day this was exactly how I felt and created this word to apply to my state of mind.)

listening to the winds of change

(lyrics from the song "wind of change" by The Scorpions) :

a phrase meaning: to be clever enough to (correctly) detect and/or predict patterns of future social change in one's society, and adapt to said patterns before most other people around you.

not to brag, but in most cases, I am good at listening to the winds of change.

during the 2016 presidential election campaign most higher ups in the democratic party didnt start listening to the winds of change until it was too late, but instead focused on perpetuating obama's legacy; no wonder they lost the election.
