11X Wat we nooit zullen vergeten van Sex and the City
Vandaag exact twintig (twíntig, TWINTIG) jaar geleden werd de allereerste aflevering van Sex and the City uitgezonden. Dit weekend keek ik zomaar weer even een aflevering. Je weet wel, dat Carrie en Miranda met baby Brady naar The Hamptons gaan om een huwelijk bij te wonen. Om mijn zeshondervierenzeventigste kijksessie te legitimeren, kies ik dan een andere taal zodat het mijn binge behavior enigszins verantwoordt, maar toch. Sex and the City, het blijft in ons leven. Daarom vandaag, in plaats van macarons en champagne, onze 10 (oh nee, het werden er toch 11 want Anthony móest er bij) lievelingszinnen. Kom maar door met die Cosmopolitans, here’s to onze favoriete vriendinnen. Moet jij raden welke van wie komt.
1. “I will be a bag lady. A Fendi-bag lady but still, a bag lady.”
2. “I like my money right where I can see it: hanging in my closet.”
3. “The fact is, sometimes, it’s really hard to walk in a single woman’s shoes. That’s why we need really special ones now and then to make the walk a little more fun.”
4. “Men cheat for the same reasons as dogs lick their balls… Because they can.”
5. “Honey, what’s the point of living in the suburbs if you’re not going to fuck a gardener?”
6. “I know your friends just fine. Charlotte is the brunette, Miranda is the redhead and Samantha is trouble.”
7. “How can you not have a shrink? This is Manhattan. Even shrinks have shrinks.”
8. “We all judge, that’s our hobby. Some people do arts and crafts. We judge.”
9. Charlotte: “Imagine being blind, not being able to see a beautiful day like today. Can you think of anything worse?” Anthony: “Stonewashed jeans and a matching jacket.”
10. “There are no available men in their thirties in new York. Giuliani had them removed along with the homeless.”
11. Stanford: “I missed my prom night at school, beacuse…”
Anthony: “You were gay…”
Stanford: “No. My girlfriend and I broke up the night before because…”
Anthony: “You were gay…”
Stanford: “No, I wasn’t gay until…”
Anthony: “You were born.”
