Snacks and the City

This spring our favorite self-centered 'guurlfriends' Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda are back with Sex and the City: The Movie. When this HBO show was on TV, it influenced millions of women across the country. From Cosmopolitan Martinis to 5-inch 'FMP' heals to woman talking opening in public about the one night stand they had over the weekend. Now I am no Puritan by any means, but I was always a little disturbed by how far reaching Sex and City was (and still is) in influencing pop culture. Especially here in Manhattan, the shows back drop metropolis. But I am curious to see if the filmmakers have come up with anything new that will be trend setters in 2008. But I hope they get really creative to satisfy the fickle public who are waiting impatiently to find out.

What I suggest is the female feedbag.
I mean why not? For the busy working girl on the go. You can pour your $12 Chop't salad into the feedbag, and chew as you walk, hail a cab or eat under an umbrella on those rainy days. Wouldn't you love to see Carrie walk around with one strapped to her chin? Seriously if you promote it the right way, the summer of 2008 will be the summer of fashionable feedbag. Imagine, thousands of Manhattan women walking around Park Avenue with their Coach Bags, Gucci shoes, Fendi diamond necklaces and National Bridle feedbags. Now that's hot! Versace will sell them with pink floral patterns and Prada will have them with diamond encrusted studs and a cell phone strap attached to the top, so you can listen to a conversation while you eat. Gisele Bundchen can walk down a runway in Victoria Secret lingerie and a black laced feedbag. I really think this can be a new American sensation!

So for the writers of Sex and the City, I give you permission to use my idea for the movie sequel. But when this becomes a big hit, I hope to see some royalties.

This just isn't right. Feedbags? Like would this really turn a man on? I think not.

SatC has had a terrible affect on America. Thanks to that show you have college aged and up women all over America trying to be exactly like those hags in that show. The unfortunate result of this is a terrible blight on the American landscape. All the diver bars are gone and have been replaced by Martini Lounges. And since everybody tries to dress like they are in NYC, even if they're in Omaha, the bars charge NYC prices to help withe whole fantasy.

Damn bitches.

The feed bag is a brilliant though. Especially for SJP and that long face of hers. LOL ;-)

OMG! I didn't even think about the Sarah Jessica Broderick horseface insults! Purely unintentional. Sorry Jessica if you happen to read this. Cosmos are on me at Pravda.

Jahooooni,
I'm just having fun. Don't be mad. I found the photo on line and had to write something about it. Hee hee.

I will admit to being a huge fan of Sex and the City. It was very satisfying to see single women who were successful and fabulous. I am excited for the movie and for the feedbag trend.

The feedbag is a great idea. They wouldn't be able to talk with that on, would they?

Schmoop said...

Just don't get Kate Moss to endorse it. Cheers!!

Count me in for the feedbag for Parker, owner of the horsiest face since Carly Simon, but not the other three.

Hey Leap O' Faith,

What short lived TV sitcom did Sarah Jessica Parker star in the early 1980s?

Doc said...

Cop Rock?

The Mountain Cat said...

No not Cop Rock but that does lead to a future blog. Hey Doc, how about 'You Go Ahead and Keep On Believing That: The Musical'?

Doc said...

Starring Rex Harrison as Abraham Lincoln?

Cop Rock! Ha, ha, ha... That has to have been the most ridiculously zealous idea for a show ever! I haven't thought of this in years. Too funny!

BAAAWWWWW!!!!
Doc, I love it! Talk about an obscure '80s reference!!! Lets see how many people know what TV show you are referring to!?? It's not too different than Cop Rock actually. Brilliant!

Doc said...

You are welcome Sir... I won't tell - lets see if anyone else knows. HA !
