If you’re a millennial, you can probably quote the entire script of Mean Girls – with the hand actions to match, of course, I mean DUH! In fact, it’s hard to go a day without one of the memorable quotes popping into our heads – especially when it comes to lunch, and we find ourselves staring at the salad bar thinking, “whatever, I’m getting cheese fries.” But behind the iconic quotes and life-altering questions, like whether butter really is a carb (it’s not, FYI) or why Gretchen’s hair is so big, there are a lot of seriously important life lessons that we can all take a moment to appreciate. Here are our top ten:

1. Never change who you are to fit in, especially when it comes to your crush – don’t ever dumb yourself down!

2. With confidence, you can pull off almost any look.

3. Pores are a people-thing – everyone has them… Even Regina! (Shame she never read this though!)

4. ‘Slut shaming’ or any sort of shaming is never the answer – it won’t make you feel better and will only make people think it’s ok when it ISN’T.

5. As Cady so poignantly said: “All you can do in life is try to solve the problem that’s in front of you.” Life seems so much harder when you think about everything all at once – take a deep breath and tackle the now, because you never know what will happen tomorrow.
