#kinda. just the fact that people use this trope a lot for stancest

Sorry I feel kinda bad saying this but tbh. As someone who doesn't feel all that intelligent in a sort of tangible, easy to see way--its kinda. Interesting. To see so many people want to make Stan stereotypically booksmart along with Ford. Like, idk, it's sort of discouraging and feels like people value booksmarts more than other sorts of intelligence.

Obviously this is just my opinion! But it is kinda saddening to a point. In canon as far as we know, Stan was never interested in that stuff, and people using this headcanon as a way to make Ford more interested in him seems....idk. like...does he only have value if he's booksmart?
