either way, i m bored and dont have good ways of answering this, but if-sorry, when i drink, i might drift away on the subject and in that case, she is 100% right.
you can tell, i hope, that i dont care. i just found it hilarious from her part.


ah and there are turn ons/offs, depending on how you view the other person.
for example, lack of intelligence can be viewed both ways.
people say that it can be a turn on for someone, who you view only as a sexual object.
however, im not sure about that. i did try it once and it was one of the dullest evenings of my life. i really wanted to rip my guts out and feed them to my ears. i thought we were (he was) talking for 4 hours, and it was only one! so yeah, that didnt work.
on the other hand, one being intelligent and i mean in all aspects, not just clever can be a major turn on.

One of my closest friends is a musician and we rarely talk about music, which is a miracle since we see ech other enough a lot. Maybe it happened something like 5 times. I'm not even entirely sure what sort of bands he is into apart from Joy Division and Shellac.
