satc-04-2008.jpgIt 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.

  1. I don’t know a damn thing about Sex and the City really. What I do know though is chicks who love that show are usually very easy to get into the sack, particularly if they are over 26. If a chick tells you she loves that show, you know 1) She has no problems with recreational sex, 2) She is impressed with superficial behavior designed to impress and 3) is willing to drink expensive, strong cocktails.

    If said chick is in late 20s, early 30s group – this means she is likely fearing getting old or better yet, thinks the best way to deal with that fear is to get slutty!

    No matter what the case, it’s a recipe for an easy conquest.

    Sex and the City is probably the best show ever to come out. It has made the lives of men so much easier!

  2. In case anyone was wondering or forgotten…Mr. B originally had wanted as many people to sign up for a handle as possible.

    With that comes some witty bantor as you are able to talk to and have a conversation with someone who is not faded and anonymous.

    The more people like 4:21 insist on trashing others while saying absolutely nothing about the topic, you are only making the guest comments more and more obsolete.

  3. 4:21, that’s Biff to you. No, today isn’t the last day I’m afraid.

    You may not believe it, but I can enjoy talking to people even if they happen to be gay. You should try it sometime. You might enjoy it too.

    Now please stop attacking and say something on point.

  4. I guess we could stop and watch the scintillating conversation that would surely ensue amongst posters like 4:00 who keep knocking us and clearly have something more substantive to say about the topic they obviously care for so dearly.

  5. No 3:22 – I’m one of those Fathers – you know the kind that has two eyes and a brain and can see that having a Mom who is obsessed with being ‘famous’ as well as being completely consumed with showing off isn’t a recipe for raising a teenage daughter.

  6. Wait Biff, you don’t think Mr. B had intended this turn into a soul-searching thread on why Carrie wasn’t able to bag Mr. Big until the series finale??

    God. You are so right, 4:01!!!
