Why you really want to be an IB Geek Girl!

If you're a girl, and a geek, or even a trainee geek or a girl geek wannabee, then you need to be an IB Geek Girl!

What's so great about being an IB Girl Geek? - aka 10 reasons why you know you *really* want to
1) You get to hang out with other geek girls
2) You help to show the boy geeks that girl geeks can be just as geeky as they are and we look better in high heels than they do
3) You can contribute to the IB Geek Girls' recommended reading list
4) We have our own private meeting room where we can hang out and chat and share geeky info, away from the geeky boys
5) You get exclusive access to cool Geek Girl toys that aren't available to non-Geek Girls yet (okay, there's only one of them at the moment, but it's a start)
6) Shortly we'll be having meetings and games and competitions exclusive to the Geek Girls
7) You can enter the "How well do you know the IB icon sets?" competition
8) We have our very own blog (currently under development)
9) Another very good reason that we'll come up with in just a moment
10) Tamashii will be very jealous of you ;-)

How do I become an IB Geek Girl?
Simply add the words IB Geek Girls in your profile under "Movies", "Listening", "On the Tube", or "Reading" - just add those words in to your list, no spaces before or after, just like you add any other tags to your profile. That's it! You're an IB Geek Girl!

How do I gain access to the secret Geek Girls' room?
Go to the home of the IB Geek Girls and sign up. To gain access to the secret area, whisper to me your member name (I don't always spot new people right away), and I shall grant you access just as soon as I am able.

I'm a boy. Can I join the IB Geek Girls?
No. JBVisions can be very scary when annoyed. She's the IB Geek Girls' secret security weapon, and is deadly with all kinds of fruit (don't ask ;-)) Don't try and fool us by turning up in a dress and wearing lipstick. We've been doing it a lot longer than you and can spot a fake a mile off.

IB Geek Girl membership currently stands at 36, and we're growing every day. We may not have free rum like the Pirates do, and we generally don't disembowel people like the ninjas do, but we know a thing or two about geeky stuff, and we like sharing things with other geek girls.

So, what are you waiting for? Come join the IB Geek Girls and join in the fun!

Y'all have never seen me in heels, so i don't think you should make such a general statement, besides with my legs, i just might be jealous of Tamashii in heels!

btw - when i spell checked this little piece, it highlighted "Tamashii" & suggested "tomato" as the replacement word!!! LOL =)

What we be missin here...wait, wrong no androglossia...

OK, gals, we gots to get us a slogan. The pirates have the catchy "Go Pirates" and Join The Pirates and snipe the world™. The Ninjas never say nothing (intellegent). IB Anonymous is a catch phrase in the making. Now I know we gots the smarts to come up with the killer line, but I will just throw out a few to get the creative juices flowing.

Our other computer is your Windows box.
Tamashii in Heels - YEAHBaby!
The Mother of all Geeks

Come on, help me out!

Well as the Spice Girls are getting back together it seems fitting to use......

GIRL POWER!

and we get a song to go with it.......

♩♩ Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna
really really really wanna

my fiancé got me a fridge magnet that says "Play dumb and boys will like you. Be smart and men will love you". not really good for a slogan, but i wanted to share.

@katylava, that is awesome!

(Obviously he considers himself a man.)

Slogan suggestions:
"We're geeks. We're girls. Do the math."
or
"We don't spam, we don't snipe, we just sit around and type" Go Girl Power! Okay I'll stop and go do some work.

It sounds better when you say it.

Great idea about having a slogan! I was only thinking the same thing this morning at work when I got bored (unfortunately I can't access IB from there :-()

Hmmmmmm...perhaps we need a slogan contest. I'll start rigging something up for voting later tonight.
