A Decade of Mean Girls Is So Fetch.

If y’all can believe it, Mean Girls premiered 10 years ago today. If that doesn’t make you feel like you’re entering/in adulthood (VOM), I’m not sure what will. In honor of today, we are going to throw it back to a time when Lindsay Lohan was in her prime and take a little time to point out several reasons we love Mean Girls will never get old.

Mean Girls is super quotable for everyday life.

Because this sounds so much better than just “Congratulations!”

Too-Gay-To-Function Damien (it’s only okay when Janis says it) has some of my personal favorite one-liners throughout the entire movie. I have 100% thrown out a “She doesn’t even go here,” to my friends if a rando walked in a bar/party/wherever. And you better believe I have said this to anyone who has come in my room too early on a Saturday:

Damien just gets me.

Also, I kid you not, I literally volunteered to do every calculus problem in front of the class senior year of high school in the hopes that I could channel my inner pre-rehab Lindsay Lohan and scream “The limit does not exist,” in front of the class. Side note: I totally made this happen. Like, where is my mathlete jacket, Kevin G?

When your friend calls and cancels plans you’re annoyed, but it makes you feel slightly better that you can pretend to be Regina George. “Boo, you whore!” *Bonus points if your friend is pulling a Karen and faking sick*

Okay, like this one is not practical for everyday use, but still hilarious.

 There is literally no way to include every quote from Mean Girls that we love. I think I could have conversations for an entire week with Gretchen Wieners quotes alone.
Even ten years later, Mean Girls has made the internet immensely more hilarious.

You combine Mean Girls with literally any other movie or television show, it’s going to be pure gold. My personal faves:

And like, this tumblr is absolute perfection:
Mean Girls gets better every time you watch it. Yes, the movie was funny when you were 13, but it’s honestly gets even better the older you get. I guarantee I didn’t get half of the jokes in the movie when I was younger because they were borderline inappropriate for me to hear anyway. I have also come to appreciate the fact that there are multiple Saturday Night Live alums in the cast. Like no wonder the movie is so freaking funny. Amy Poehler alone, as not a regular mom but a cool mom, is worth watching the movie for.

 For all of this, and much more, we want to give a big Modern Magnolias thank you to our girl Tina Fey. To show your appreciation, I hope you’re being super fetch, wearing pink (DUH IT’S WEDNESDAY) and eating tons of Toaster Strudels. I’ll be doing both, while performing Kevin G’s talent show act, because yes, I can rap the entire thing flawlessly.
Stay Grool,

P.S. Mean Girls is totally on Netflix now, so happy watching! Don’t even bother yourself with watching that Mean Girls 2 nonsense that ABC Family made.
