Comment Only now they realize 'sci-fi' is derogatory? (Score 1) 798
In SF fandom "Science Fiction" (or speculative fiction, etc) was the general term with "Scifi" (skiffy) used for the late-night B-movie type of SF media.
I'd figured they originally used Sci-Fi to be ironic.
I think from now on I'm going to call it CeePhee.
