i said it before and i'll say it again- i hope monica lewinsky's having an incredible week right now.

Gonna be lazy and cap this tangent off with a screenshot from tumblr. I cant find the original post to give OP their proper credit, but whoever they are, they definitely nailed the vibe of the show.

MASH is "the horrors persist but we stay silly" the series, its progressive even by todays standards, and despite the occasional airball in cultural portrayals, it has great moral principles which it sticks to- that human beings all fundamentally deserve dignity.

we now have three copies of that book in the house (i will absolutely be yoinking one to take home) and i got to teach my grandparents about the words "rizz," "lock in," and "torment nexus" in return. cross-generational linguistic exchange is wonderful and we should do it more often.

Just googled it. I WAS RIGHT. Sarah Wynter.

First of all, Big, smoking cigars has never been cool. Second of all, Samantha, you dodged a bullet.

UUUUUUGH MR BIG. I thought we'd get more of a reprieve for antics before he showed up. Wild that "the next donald trump" was considered a compliment back in 1998, and a bitter insult in 2025. Everything I know about this guy is from pop culture osmosis and I'm already on board to hate this guy.

"soft wet eyed nerdy boy who gives off heavy "got called gay in high school" vibes" is a lot of people's type. Carrie is setting him up with Miranda though, despite knowing shes gonna hate him. Baffling choice.

Skipper, one of Carrie's season 1 friends, is a curly haired 20-something keith haring type who is struggling to get romantic dates because of hookup culture. My first impression- if this season took place in 2025 and he managed to avoid being eaten by the manosphere, i guarantee he'd have takers.

Anyways this is gonna become my SATC thread where I dump my thoughts about it. Its high time I watched it, and because i'm doing a uni subject about pop culture, i might even be able to milk this for a grade!

Granted, she sounds like an aussie who went to private school (no judgement, so did i) so i guess thats probably not clockable to a north american audience, but I noticed IMMEDIATELY. Its like that north american loon call in nosferatu (2024) and i cant un-notice it.

this is the first time ive ever had covid- ever. finally got me after five years of never having had it. I went in to get my covid booster a few days back and the nurse told me i didnt need it for another two months. what are the odds.

if anyone else on this godforsaken webbed site has also finished the video, please contact me because i need someone to hate the billionaire bumpkin comics from the 70's with
