This topic has had me trying to think of a counterpart in “real life” and I have an idea that might work.
Somebody or group comes up with an exhaustive list of things that have never happened and puts that list in an easily accessible database somewhere.
Every time something on the list does happen, the news is reported in some fashion like:
Item #24437918 – Plane lands on White House roof and all aboard survive and get appointed to a cabinet post – Okay. That just happened.
Think how easy and exciting the news could be.
Beer. You set up your van for making candy so that you have it where you need it.
If you want to come over and let me have at you with my sheep castration bander we can find out ![]()
Oo! Oo! I think I’ve got one: abasiophilia (or devoteeism)
Who among us besides myself is aware of our faults and feels shame for them?
Hello? crickets
Here you go: Abasiophilia - Wikipedia
Uh, yeah, I know what it is. Your ref is to Wikipedia. The OP question is about what’s been discussed here.
Or am I stupid?
Not stupid at all, as best I can tell. I was just providing additional talking points that might still be in the unexplored region of that issue. I will confess ignorance before your mention of it. I didn’t try a search here though.
That’s a subset of people called “wannabes,” I think. Hard to wrap my mind around that one. As for “simple” abasiophiliacs, I can get it as well as some other fetishes. I still don’t think it’s come up. People don’t usually want to expose their fetishes. And people without the fetish don’t much care.
IMOHOO O O
