So, this weekend marks the opening of the Sex and the City movie. For those of you living under a rock, the popular TV series about four liberated ladies drinking and partying their way around New York was bound to be made into a film, and if you're unlucky, your girlfriend/wife plans to drag you to it.
Gamers and Sex and the City fans don't really strike me as a harmonious relationship match, but that's not to say that many men won't be forced to endure two hours of scripted cocktails for the sake of your woman's happiness. Luckily, Geek Squad came up with a solution: they will be at selected theaters at midnight on the opening night of the film with quarters in hand, ready to distract you for the next two-and-a -alf hours with some good old fashioned arcade action. Now all you have to do is explain why you were in the bathroom for the duration of the entire film.
Clever plan, or will your other half chew you out for not sitting in silence and suffering? Hard to say, but it's a pretty funny mission regardless ... I'd love to see how many men leave in a mass exodus. Now let's just hope these theaters have some solid arcade titles.
[Thanks, Alan]

Geek Squad earns a thumbs up from me.
it's basically an hour long period where you testicles slowly recede, attempting to retreat back into your body to become ovaries, simply to escape the deadly and terrifying waves of estrogen being emitted by your tv
that and women who need to admit they're old having sex with men who are in the same boat
thank god my gf doesn't care about that shit
I gave my ex-girlfriend an iPod Touch with every episode of Sex and the City on it.
I ripped over 20 DVDs of the Sex in the City box set I had given her earlier. I then converted them to iPod form, and watched every episode to make sure the quality was perfect.
That's 94 episodes of SotC I sat through in a 12 day period. I think I died a little on the inside.
So needless to say I'm pretty stoked about this movie! Seriously, I can't wait to see how it all ends.
Someone kill me now :(
"I gave my ex-girlfriend an iPod Touch with every episode of Sex and the City on it."
Ah, that was nice of you.
"I ripped over 20 DVDs of the Sex in the City box set I had given her earlier. I then converted them to iPod form"
Damn, must've taken you a long time. Nice gift, that.
"and watched every episode to make sure the quality was perfect."
....
Works every time.
It gets worse...I took the episode summaries from Wikipedia, and added it as metadata for the episodes I ripped.
I'm a veritable encyclopedia on everything SotC. The Rabbit, post-it notes, notable guest stars...
I'll even admit that the show is entertaining. Dammit I'll never live this down, will I?
I have mad props to the geek squad guys and I feel bad for all the people being dragged to this movie this weekend.
Also SJP looks like a foot.
Please contact your local Home Depot in order to obtain instructions explaining how to relinquish your man card.
lol, I always thought SJP was a handsome woman... she reminds me of a young Dee Snider from Twisted Sister. =P
The problem is that for most guys and even some girls watching this movie it's a lot like the plot to "The Ring" except you only die a little on the inside.

@mr showtime
My God, man...
Thank the Lord I don't have a girlfriend that likes this show. I don't think I could sit through this without wanting to shoot myself. To all the ladies that are dragging their men to see this show against their will you had better give them something later on...like giving us a bj during a Michael Bay movie or something.
I mean seriously, urrrghhh.
Not role models are they?
Each one has a different but serious mental flaw to them, also physical. Yet they are supposedly cool women?
Arghh, I hope they all get gunned down in the end GTA stylee!!!!!!1111oneone.
I love you geek sqaud!
im buying A geek squad UPS in your name
Also, Sluts in the City would be a better title. I mean sex is cool and all, but talking loudly about vibrators and orgasms in a public place? Get a hobby, ladies. >:C
Anyone else think that SJP has a face like a horse?
This show is useful only in the fact that if I meet a girl that watches or likes this show, I avoid them like the plague. Speaking from my repeated experiences here. If they find any of the values in that show to be redeeming or fun in any way shape or form, I want nothing to do with them. Yes, that cancels out like 80% of the vapid whores running around out there but I am MUCH better off for it.
