I was actually thinking about that recently. Just like anyone, it bugs me when people talk about something they "don't understand." But everyone has things they don't understand, and if they meant no harm then it's useless to get upset.
And in reference to the philosophy stuff, I side with Freud in that even if you're talking nonsense and free association, if it helps
you, the person in thought/conversation, to increase your happiness and quality of life, than it is a useful and beneficial discussion. It shouldn't matter if it's called the "meaning of life" or "how to take out the trash." Not everyone should be held accountable for being accurate. That's for people
trained and
educated to be accurate--i.e. frustrated postgrads.
