The teenaged girls who want to be Carrie Bradshaw are really going to hate life when they graduate from college and realize that freelance writing is usually not sufficient to support a Jimmy Choo and Manhattan club habit. (It's not even enough to support a Steve Madden and Chicago dive bar habit.)
But, I don't have the stomach to break their little gilded hearts. I'll let them dream.
@morninggloria: But they'll be likeee, GOOD writers. Their dad TOTALLY knows someone who can get them a job. I mean, then they're paid well, right?
Ah, who cares. They'll find Mr. Big!
@greengrey: Also: Though I enjoy the show, watching it with the memories of my own "Mr. Big" in the back of my mind, yo-yo romances that take up years of your life actually aren't fun. And no one really ever ends up happily ever after with that guy, unless they have a team of writers.
I can't believe I actually care about Lisa Loeb being pregnant but I remember how much she'd moan about it on her reality show so I'm happy it worked out and am hoping that she doesn't decide that Hello Kitty is an appropriate nursery decoration.
I hope Travis gets a good bit of therapy after this. I can't even imagine how hard it would be to bond with someone even more because of your survival, and then lose that person, too.
I love ProjRun, and I have always felt bad for the models since they are told they are in a competition and yet have zero influence over the outcome of the competition (not to mention the model selection thing gives me flashbacks to 7th grade PE). But that show is just...not interesting.
@FattyCatty: I only enjoy the last 5 minutes when they're being selected and you can hear them trash talk the designers. But otherwise, yes, it's very boring.
I can't wait for my friends* to start obsessing about the SATC2 movie. I think I may just hide out until the craziness for the movie dies down. I'm so burnt out on expensive shoes/purses and flirtinis...ehhhhhhh...stop calling me a Miranda, damnit...
*I was in a sorority with a TON of girls who lurrvvveeeddd SATC. I, on the other hand, like CSI.
@KathrynwithaY loves Joan Collins: In college, I had a friend who would proclaim that I was "JUST LIKE CARRIE!!!" because I smoked many a cigarette and wrote stuff. At the time, I thought it was cool, because every histrionic college girl thinks she's a Carrie, because she's ever the protagonist in her own universe.
@BlondeGoddess: You know what cures you of it? SATC marathon. When the episodes were on the air and you had a week in between them, they seemed great. And then you watch like 6 of them back to back and think "these women are crazy and do really kind of shitty things and wtf 'I couldn't help wondering'" and then you still kinda watch them, but ironically.
@chi-girl: Actually, we used to have those, and it was even more fun. It might have had something to do with the huge amounts of alcohol taken during those marathons.
Also, Sandra Bullock is making me feel jealousy. Intense jealousy. But, you know, she really seems like a sweet person, so good for her. She does her charity work and doesn't make a big deal about it and she adores her dogs, so that goes a LONG way with me.
I don't understand that Holly Madison quote. Is she saying living with Hef gave her low self esteem? Or did she have low self esteem and then the nose job fixed it? The grammar is weird, someone please explain.
I heard part of an interview DJ AM did for the show. He said that he bought a crack pipe to show how easy it is to get drug paraphernalia and he started sweating with it in his hands. Seriously, shame on MTV for putting a recovering addict in such a dangerous, triggering situation.

Now, I'm pretty sure that I sucked a lot.

You mean teenage girls who were approximately 7 years old when this show was on tv? I don't get it.
