History worth studying? Not to my mind, no. What was it Confucius said, "to divine the future, study the past", and maybe he has a point. Maybe history is scattered with valuable lessons and warnings. And in all truth, I used to love history, and so it's value isn't entirely lost on me. But these days I don't give it much thought.

tbh i love history and **** like that just cause it's interesting more than anything else. maybe there's a lesson to be learned here and there but that's certainly not the only reason it's interesting. maybe ignorance is your personal preference. as for me, i like to observe the world around me and will use any possible medium to do so.
