Things that significantly matter, or impact my life. It's all about standards of evidence. If you tell me your name is John I don't have reason to question. If I'm trying to verify your identity for legal purposes, then it does become more important.

If you say you went to a coffee house this morning, it doesn't matter to me if you did so I'm not going to go "pics or it didn't happen" but if you say you saw a ghost, I'll need substantial evidence before believing since I hold a worldview that ghosts don't exists and if I believed you then it would change that worldview.

It was essentially a hasty way of expressing things that are going to prompt more rigorous standards before believing. I apply my skepticism to thinks like paranormal and supernatural things, medicine, religion, politics, etc...
"The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason." Benjamin Franklin
