I like and want to know everything I can about every topic...except if I had a fatal disease. If that occurred, I would prefer to live out my days not knowing I am soon gonna be fish bait.

The original saying was "where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise", which seems much more nuanced and balanced than the thread title, which reduces it to a blanket endorsement of ignorance as invariably blissful. Which is bunkum.
