The Geek Girl Manifesto

[bluehyacinth]

Setting the Scene:
So, after a wild (well, not so wild, but one can dream) evening of 80s dancing (favorite songs: "Tainted Love," "Bizarre Love Triangle," "Faith"), my good friend jennyo, in what one can only assume was a moment of wild drunkenness, decided to publicize the existence of my brand spanking new live journal, thus turning one Blue

There are no words for your cuteness.

I've seen the Two Towers bitch live and in person: there really are no words for how cute it is.

[bluehyacinth]

Well, The Two Towers is the ultimate in geek date movies!

It is even better than X-Men 2 where you get to bitch about continuity errors and giggle "Dark Phoenix, Dark Phoenix" maniacally.

Awww that's awesome. And I want a guy like that too! *hopes we both find our geek boys*

Sure, you don't know me, but I assure you, there are geek guys out there. I snagged me one, and taught him to slash, and he told me stories about the time he was this halfling thief, see, and his DM was killing characters off right and left, and he had to hide under the stairs of this tower because the DM made this iron golem that couldn't be killed ... he's so cute.

Geek girls need to stick to their standards, and one day he'll be checking out "Snow Crash" in the library line in front of you and you'll be all, "You'll love that book!" and he'll say, "Of course I will, I already read Cryptonomicon," and then it will be love.

Jen, this goes for you too.

Followed a link over from jennyo's journal, and I must say that I love and totally agree with your manifesto. :) I'm looking for my geek guy, too!

[osl]

Aww!

Geekboys out there: you need to find this girl. Not only is she fabulous (see Manifesto), but you should see how she looks, with pigtails, dancing. Y'uns don't know what you're missing.

--Dan, herds the geekboys

Again with the blushing. Thanks, Dan. Hope it's easier than herding cats.
