What would we do without our best gals? Our bosom friends. Our kindred spirits. Without them, who would we admit how many oreos we eat to? Who would we cry our eyes out to on Marco Polo? Who would we dance in deserted parking lots with? Who would we dress up as pirates with to get free Krispy Kreme?

One of my favorite lines from Mean Girls (one of my all time favorite movies and musicals) is when Gretchen yells at Regina “YOU CAN’T SIT WITH US!”.

That line is so iconic. And hilarious. And Ridiculous. And you’ve probably had it yelled at you before by someone sarcastic like me.

But the “you can’t sit with us” mentality is totally something I see in my generation and the generation I mentor.
