They do it just for fun! Gross.
Science or NASA clickbait?
It's a bit hard to write without C and H, so gotta get over it.
What annoys me with this culture is when they expect foreigners to use the same exhuberant language and they think something is wrong with you if you don't.

The issue starts when you get so deep into lewd tech that your work brings value to corporate tech.
For sure this explains a lot of religious rules but I think agent illusion is also a big contributor.
I've read a nice book from a French skepticism popularizer trying to explain the evolutionary origin of cognitive bias, basically the bias that fucks with our logic today probably helped us survive in the past. For example, the agent detection bias makes us interpret the sound of a twig snapping in the woods as if some dangerous animal or person was tracking us. It's doesn't cost much to be wrong about it and it sucks to be eaten if it was true but you ignored it. So it's efficient to put an intention or an agent behind a random natural occurence. This could also be what religions grew from.
"I'm paying with exposure." argument is not that great. Agreed with easy access to culture for those who can't spare the money though.
