It’s October 3rd, aka Mean Girls day. Taking its name from one of the film’s best-known lines (”On October 3rd, he asked me what day it was”) fans of the cult classic should clear some time for a rewatch this evening.
Over the last 20 years, the high school comedy has gained legendary pop culture status: Mean Girls tapped into the psyche of millions of teenagers around the world who sympathised with Lindsay Lohan’s character Cady, a girl who turns up at an American high school after being homeschooled in Africa. After being thrown in at the deep end, she has to quickly work out how to navigate school’s often nonsensical rules and social cues.
