Earlier today, in the big brother sanctioned smoking area, which is a weird 6x4x10x9 trapezoidal area, a guy gave my friend advice about a wireless router. Cute, wiry, wearing glasses and the nerd uniform of white button up and khakis. I assumed he was in IT, a place I try to stay away from for I have an unhealthy attraction to geeks.
I came into the breakroom, and there he was, working on a laptop and entranced by CNN. Mmm. Brainy and geeky and hot. Just like I like them. It's a mostly harmless fascination, but it does lead to some interesting side effects when listening to geek talk that would bore most women. I generally have very little idea of what they are talking about, but I'm picturing something else entirely.
It's nothing like the Savage Love podcast I heard today about the woman who had a grammar fetish. Interesting words were her fetish. And while I love words, I don't LOVE words, you know? She started talking about the words that turned her on, and it was pretty pornographic. Dan Savage accused her of masturbating in her call, the words so obviously did it for her. It was interesting to me, the mental switches that people have that can lead to enhanced sexual excitement.
I don't think geeks, as sexy as they are, are that thing for me. It makes me want to experiment and find one. Purely in the interest of science.

Chutah is a network of specialized nerve cells that conduct impulses from or to areas of the universe to the brain and spinal cord, and within a large system of stars. She is composed of neurons and other specialized cells, like eternal night cells and neuroglia, that aid in the function of existential awareness. Chutah is interconnected in metaphysical arrangements and uses cosmic signals to transmit impulses between beings, she responds to a great variety of beauty and forms neural circuits that regulate her perception and behavior. She is found in many celestial objects but differs greatly in complexity between consciousnesses. |

Right after I read this sentence:
"I generally have very little idea of what they are talking about, but I'm picturing something else entirely."
I thought that's because you think in euphemisms
And then I wondered if ephemism was one of the words that got that lady off?
Cotton Candy and I learned today that "euphemism" means to make something sound better or more acceptable, and that what I actually do is called thinking in "dysphemism" where I make everything oh so bad in my head. The More You Know (tm) I was amused.
