Who’s ready for the new Sex and the City 2 trailer, which plunks Carrie Bradshaw and company right where you knew their destinies would always take them: Abu… Dhabi? What? Forget it. Sometimes you just know when something stinks, and I would sooner tattoo my eyelids than watch this effing thing. In fact, I can think of a million other things I would do before I watched a frame of this garish, overextended, ovary-tickling twaddle. For starters:

Oh, That's not fair. Dennis Hopper's wife is a cutie. He's the one who's gone cookoo.
I dunno–breast-milk cheeseburger, Lou Reed, or the cigarette thing . . . hard to top your list—and YES I AM WOMAN–the only answer to the really insoluble WHY any Barrie Cradshaw is simply MONEY from people who hate themselves and practice self-abuse . . . self-abuse in the non-biblical context.
THANKS FOR THE GREAT LAUGH. WE SHOULD SEND YOU MONEY
