Defending Female Geek Rights

GIRLS CAN LIKE STAR WARS, TOO.

And not just for, like, squishy, happy romantic fanfic, either.

I like the blowing-stuff-up-ness, and the lightsabers, and Boba Fett. I've read the EU almost start to finish from ANH on (and I'm even beginning to be tempted by prequel-era stuff). I know a great deal about the GFFA, thank you very much.

LMAO @ the 'she said' joke! I'll join you in the joke embarrassment, because I am always making the he/she said jokes and have quite literally found myself beet-red in front of my boss, of all people, when one slipped out during lunch in the office -- *ahem* *grin*.

Thanks on the cabinet kudos!! I actually just slimmed down my digs last week - much to the dissapointment of some coworkers. On top of those cabinets was some Halo stuffz (the big life size helmet, a 12' action figure, and a warthog), and there used to be some more SW collectable stuffz, but I took those home.

I also have a bust of a gorilla on top that was used in the filming of some action/special effects of one of thos late '90s movies, thanks to my buddy and Kuya (which in tagalog is 'big brother') at work. At his desk, he has a a movie prop of the alien that busts out of the guy's chest in 'Alien' and a head of the Terminator -- the half skull/half cyborg look. I think we have an office battle of who can be the bigger geek at geeking out our desks :P I still blow him away in movie quotes *FLEXOR*

But, that being said, you are way up there on the geeky grooviness yourself missy! Your base knowledge of cannon, eu, all SW stuff is WAY more than I could store in my old brain :P haha
