“Was it malice or stupidity?
Doha had found that the motivation for most confusing attributes of other people could be classified into one of those two categories.
Someone cutting in a line? Either they were too oblivious to notice the queue (stupidity—unaware of one’s surroundings) or simply didn’t care that they were inconveniencing others (malice—a prioritization of the self above others).
So, in the case of Renee refusing to call him by his preferred name, Doha had quickly inferred that she was either consistently forgetful, even after multiple reminders (stupid to a pitiful degree) or determined to call him what she wanted to, regardless of his preference (malicious, but in a rude, undercutting sort of way).”
