Also Nobody Moves to New York "To Fall In Love"

I'm working very hard lately, but I just came here to say that I absolutely cannot believe that in all these years, I'm the first person on the internet to think of calling Sex and the City "a menstrual show."

Because it's the women's equivalent of a minstrel show. Because 'menstrual', chicks, haha. Because it's a terrible pun about a show based entirely on terrible puns.

GET IT?

Thinking deeply enough about why I hate SATC to generate that bad pun was inspired by this new trailer. (And I'm just going to stand behind that sentence.)

Let's Drink Box Wine and Hatewatch Lifetime

Hatewatch, v, to watch something bad just to hate it (usually with friends): "The other day I was hatewatching Cashmere Mafia and I realized that the portrayal of gay men on those shows is not unlike the portrayal of African American mammies in films such as Gone with the Wind."

(For all I know this is a common term, because it's impossible to Google, but I just used it today in a fan email to Rich Four Four about this awesome blog post (and about Cashmere Mafia, obvs.)
