Every year on October 3, fans of the beloved teen film “Mean Girls” come together to observe “Mean Girls Day,” donning pink outfits and enjoying cheese fries. This date holds special significance as it references a memorable scene from the film where Cady Heron’s crush, Aaron Samuels, inquires about the date during math class, to which she responds, “It’s October 3rd.”
Two decades after its debut, “Mean Girls” has established itself as a pop culture phenomenon, notable for its sharp script filled with memorable quotes and clever insults. Fans can always find a fitting “Mean Girls” line for any situation, whether it’s the classic, “You go, Glen Coco!” or the humorous, “She doesn’t even go here!”
If you’re greeting a friend, you might say, “Get in loser, we’re going shopping.” If you’re unsure in the lunch line, “Whatever, I’m getting cheese fries,” is a perfect fallback. Additionally, it’s probable that your mom has echoed Mrs. George’s phrase, “I’m not like a regular mom, I’m a cool mom,” albeit hopefully not in front of your friends.
Although it has been many years since 2004, “Mean Girls” continues to resonate with the trials and humor of teenage life. On October 3, share these funny quotes from the film with your friends.
