Sex and the Brooklyn
It makes you wonder: Now that much of Manhattan has turned into a theme park version of “Sex and the City,” would Carrie Bradshaw and the gang still live on the island? Probably not, since Manhattan is as played out as a pair of last season’s Manolos. “It’s expensive, and it’s not what it used…

It makes you wonder: Now that much of Manhattan has turned into a theme park version of “Sex and the City,” would Carrie Bradshaw and the gang still live on the island? Probably not, since Manhattan is as played out as a pair of last season’s Manolos. “It’s expensive, and it’s not what it used to be,” Sarah Jessica Parker tells the Daily News. “That’s why the outer boroughs are so desirable. The outer boroughs are pretty sexy. It’s just a matter of time before they have their own shows.” According to the article, “If ‘Sex’ were starting over today, Carrie would rock out Carroll Gardens. BFF Miranda started out in Park Slope, but later, she’s bound to settle down with Steve, Brady and a brand new car in spacious Red Hook,” while Samantha would roost in Long Island City and Charlotte would play house in Riverdale. The article has quotes from Brooklyn residents who say stuff like, “Carroll Gardens or Williamsburg have a little bit of the hip edge that Carrie has, so she’d be able to get away with her funky outfits and no one would think twice about it.” Hip, edgy, less expensive than Manhattan: You heard it here first, folks. Also, the apocalypse is nigh.

I like Bon Jovi. What were you playing? Show tunes???
Disagree totally Polemicist – it is the girls who watched the show as teenagers who are now in their mid-twenties that try to emulate the slutty (in the best meaning of the word) lifestyle – once they hit 30+ they realize thats just TV and they start listening to their Grandmother who told them to ‘hold out’ and then you’ll get a guy to marry you.
Then you have to wait till they’re married till there willing to get all freaky again (not with their husband however)
4:44, if you don’t get it, that’s your problem. Grab your binky and go back to sleep.
I like your style, 4:44.
It’s not too late to sign up. You’ve got potential. Very funny!
This blog’s like your favorite bar you go to all the time until these losers start showing up there and getting all drunk and rowdy, playing Bon Jovi songs on the juke box and shouting to each other from across the bar. You can get pissed off but eventually you just have to accept you’ve lost your bar and move on to another place.
polemicist…. although your observations and conclusions reek of armchair psychology I think they are the most right on I’ve ever heard.
i applaud your keen insight and hope that you have benefitted exhaustively from it. I’m sure you’re sorry the show is over.
Welcome to the club. The only thing better than slutty girls is horny guys
This is the type of analysis that Mr B was expecting for the OP
Wake me for the “witty bantor”
Polemicist, I don’t know what to make of your comments. Your post is ignorant, crude and misogynistic and I loved every damn word you said! I enjoy your opinions and talk of slutty girls is always welcome and appreciated.
Thank goodness you joined in.
You are officially one of us now, Polemicist!
Love to hear a good story about slutty girls.
They’re the best!!
