10 Of The Best And Worst 'Sex And The City' Characters

scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com

Sex and the City turned 20 on June 6th and even though it went off the air in 2004, it's still funny, relevant, and has a hell of a good cast. I feel it's only appropriate to go through the characters and really just reminisce. In doing this I have compiled a list of the best and the worst.

1. Steve Brady

He was so funny, he got Miranda to RELAX, and he is just an overall great guy in the show, especially when it seemed like all of the ladies only ever dated less than stellar guys. I know he cheated on Miranda in the movie but let's move past it.

2. Carrie Bradshaw

Giphy

My absolute queen. She was self-confident, unapologetic and so incredibly stylish. One thing that will never make sense is how she lived the life she did, only writing a column (until she got her gig at Vogue of course).

3. Charlotte York

Giphy

In a friendship group full of women who are majorly cynical about love, Charlotte is a bright light of positivity. She dresses cute, she's positive, she has a cool job, AND she is adored by her precious husband Harry Goldenblatt. In a world where everyone wants to be Carrie, I low key want to be Charlotte

4. Aiden

Giphy

AIDEN WAS TOO GOOD FOR CARRIE!

5. Mr. Big

Giphy

I know this is a highly controversial and dividing conversation to start up but I LOVE John James Preston. What a treat. Some people think that Carrie and Aiden were perfect but that is just because Aiden was perfect —Carrie was not good enough for him! Big and Carrie balance each other out and they both are able to deal with the others fear of commitment.

"The Russian." HOW Carrie dated him for so long actually blows my mind. He is rude, arrogant and LET US NOT FORGET THAT HE HITS CARRIE. Goodbye.

7. Bunny

Trey's mom was the WORST. How Charlotte didn't lose her mind sooner is beyond me.

8. Carrie Bradshaw

She is the best but also the worst. If she just handled some of her situations like an actual adult, she would have had so many fewer problems. Obviously, her misfortunes with men are what the show was built on, but there was little too much of "woe is me".

9. Richard Wright

He broke Samantha's heart and was just generally such a sleazeball. Gross.

10. Miranda Hobbs

I am sorry but could she be any more negative? I get that someone has to be a realist in the group but COME ON. You know when you look at someone and you just know that you would never get along with them? That is how I feel about Miranda.

I can't believe that Sex and the City aired 20 years ago this year. It is wild how time goes on but the issues addressed on this hilarious show are still relevant today. Everyone's got their opinions on the whole Mr. Big VS Aiden debate, what's yours?

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
