It’s Monday. I’m Cranky.
Welcome to college, the home of the exchange of free ideas… except the ones we don’t agree with.
1, 2, 3, 4, tell me you won’t play this stupid fucking ad anymore.
Will I watch this show? Answering that question is so easy, even a caveman could do it.
Hey! I have an idea for a tagline! Sex in the City: The Movie: turning a new generation of young female New Yorkers into cold, hard bitches, and keeping a new generation of young male New Yorkers from getting laid.

Meaghan says:WHOA WHOA WHOA chris.
If anything, SATC is getting more men laid in NYC - and all over the country.
Please to enjoy my evidence:

Sally Tomato says:Is that John Heard in the cast of Cavemen? Man, he’s hit a new low.

BNY says:I agree with you on the caption for that photo: “Welcome to college, the home of the exchange of free ideas… except the ones we don’t agree with.”
Well done.
I agree with Meaghan on this: “If anything, SATC is getting more men laid in NYC - and all over the country.”
But I’m betting that the cavemen TV show wins an Emmy. Or even bigger. It’ll be the first TV show to win an Oscar and a Grammy in the same year.

admin says:Meaghan: Not all women are Lindsay Lohan.
In fact, aside from her SATC-inspired sex life, I hope that no women are like Lindsay Lohan.

Meaghan says:I think you missed my point. I was referring to the huge upsurge of promiscuity caused by lindsay lohan herself. i wasn’t saying that the general public was just like LiLo.
yes. LiLo.

Rattling The Kettle says:Holocaust denial (or sponsorship of terrorism, or threatened nuclear annihilation of a neighboring state) is not an opinion that deserves a prominent stage. It’s not something to agree or disagree with. It’s not something that belongs in the public discourse, and it’s not something that adds to the free exchange of ideas. And it’s not something that’s going to help Columbia the next time they come calling for my alumni contribution.

Max says:So easy, I won’t ever turn on the caveman show, who the hell green-lit that show?
Then again, who thought a Sex in the City movie would be a good idea? I know I have a penis and therefore am not the target audience, but hasn’t that ship sailed, gone out to sea, sunk and had the wreckage picked over?

deb says:The Iranian head of State is what my Mom would call “dumb like a fox.” He says things he knows his audience wants to hear mixed in with his own twisted rhetoric. If you studied pre-WWII Nazi Germany and read any of Hitler’s speeches, you would find the same kind of MO.
While it can be dangerous to give this man a stage to speak upon, I would much rather be able to keep an eye on him. It would be nice if the Paparazzi would tail him (instead of Britney or Lindsay) and catch him having a cocktail or sleeping through morning prayers, even just to make him look bad to those who hang on his every word.

joanna says:“America is advanced citizenship. You gotta want it bad, because it’s gonna put up a fight. It’s gonna say ‘You want free speech? Let’s see you acknowledge a man whose words make your blood boil, who’s standing center stage and advocating at the top of his lungs that which you would spend a lifetime opposing at the top of yours…Show me that, defend that, celebrate that in your classrooms. Then, you can stand up and sing about the ‘land of the free’.”
Yes, it’s a quote from a somewhat dorky movie, but I’ve always liked it. Ahmadinejad’s ideas are deplorable - absolutely - but denying the voicing of opinions is a betrayal of the fundamental constitutional values of this country, to me. Plus, it demonstrates fear of those ideas, which only serves to give them more power, voiced or not. Stand up and denounce his words at the top of your lungs and I will join you, but I cannot be on the side of strong-arming and silencing. It is too slippery of a slope.

Cait says:Please, if anything Sex and the City made me want to be a slut. How will that possibly keep guys from getting laid?
September 25th, 2007 at 10:02 pm
Chris says:Cait: No, Sex and the City made you want to be a slut with Mr. Perfect who will take you out to every fancy restaurant and club in town and take you back to his huge loft apartment in Soho. And THAT’S how it keeps guys from getting laid.

Brooklyn Bitch says:Don’t blame Sex and the City.
Young male New Yorkers stop themselves from getting laid.
Don’t kid yourself.
I was a cold, hard bitch long before Carrie Bradshaw hit the scene.
