So, who’s your Carrie?
Except for that time in Paris, have we ever gone shoe shopping together? I feel totally cheated. I think we went to the laundromat a couple times.
If I was the gay guy in this scenario, I’d push her out of the car.
Basten, in my strip, I think everyone is Miranda.
Mila, I think we only went shoe shopping together in Paris, which is more than I’ve gone shoe shopping with most people! But, but, remember all those cosmos we used to drink way back when?
Andy, we’ll see what happens! I’m going to wink at you now via emoticon
Hey, I think I ended up underwear shopping with you in Paris! I think the shopping resulted from us traveling together, not some gay best friend thing. (I think of you as my tall thin erudite best friend, anyway.)
We did drink Cosmos at Especial, but that was *years* before Sex & the City; does that give us some cachet?
We drank cosmos back before they were cool. They were very indie rock cosmos.
So let’s see… drinking cosmos, shopping for shoes and French underwear, talking about boys… yep we’re stereotypes. In a very non-stereotypical way.
Been catching up on your awesome comic since your guest spot on Multiplex last week. I’ve really enjoyed it but don’t know if you check your comments going back this far.
But I couldn’t help but think:
“We drank cosmos back before they were cool. ”
is from some sort of unpublished book — like 101 Things You’ll Hear a Gay Hipster Say
I get an email for every comment, and I do read them all.
Long before people were talking about Hipsters, I had a tendency to like things that no one else was interested in. So I guess I might be guilty as charged. Though I will say that in 1994, cosmos weren’t exactly cutting edge. They just hadn’t hit pop culture yet.
My favorite hipster joke:
Q: How many hipsters does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: It’s a really obscure number; you probably haven’t heard of it.
Sadly, this is what I become to every girl I meet when they find out I’m gay. Should I be blaming Sex and the City, then? Hehehe
