"sapiosexual" as a concept is such a gigantic crock of shit and I will continue to hold this opinion until someone shows me a sapiosexual group full of dudes going "you know, Stephen Hawking could get it"

etymologically "sapio" is more "wisdom" than "intelligence" so if anything you should be into like Tibetan lamas or something

haha that's a coincidence, i was just talking about alternative sexualities with one of my co-workers at lunch and she brought up "sapiosexual" and i immediately without thinking said "that's not a sexual orientation, that's something assholes say to make themselves sound clever"
i try not to be rude in general but i guess i was already on my high horse when the topic came up

It would be, at most, a very specific fetish, right? If you couldn't get off if someone *wasn't* actively being smart at you?
― vcrash, Saturday, 21 September 2019 02:07 (five years ago) link
Saying "I like smart people" is no more deep or revealing, and is no more indicative of a "sexual orientation", than saying "I like pretty people". Yeah I am attracted to people who are beautiful and smart and rich, I AM SUCH A REBEL AGAINST SOCIETY

journos shouting hype almost always translates to them being late to the party, and being convinced that if a band could get attention without them noticing, they must have been bamboozled by nefarious means

i have been playing loads of roleplaying games over the last decade-ish trying to recapture the way i felt when i was 12 and despite lots of cool stuff being out there i am happy to report that feeling is ephemeral and tied directly to the powerlessness, imagination, time, and friendship that was only available at 12yo, it can never be recaptured alas.― Mordy, Friday, January 31, 2020 6:05 PM

Is this about ILX's halcyon days again?
Snark aside, that is incontrovertibly true, although in the process of chasing nostalgia in recent years I did end up discovering a few CRPGs (some old, others new) that fleetingly recaptured my teenage fascination with the Infinity Engine games. My natural inclination towards single-player CRPGs and continued willingness to suspend disbelief as a deliberate corrective to the killjoy that is academia no doubt helped lower the bar (I got my multi-player kicks from RTS's back in the day), as I've never experimented with tabletop campaigns (too demanding and too gregarious, not to mention my group of friends at the time wasn't interested anyway).
