In the age of Tinder, Hinge, and ghosting, the post-it note breakup is really not that bad.
as a whole changed the cultural landscape forever, but even certain episodes were culturally significant enough to sneak their way into the vernacular, so familiar and distinct they can be referred to as simply “the [x] one”: There was “the Rabbit one,” “the anal one,” and “the Hamptons one.” There was, of course, also “the Post-it one.”Carrie
is unceremoniously broken up with by wishy-washy man-child Berger on, yes, a Post-it, on which he had scrawled, “I’m sorry. I can’t. Don’t hate me.” In a rare moment of relatability, Carrie deals with the breakup by getting high, getting arrested, and getting ice cream, in that order. Carrie quickly moves on from Berger, who was ultimately just a not-a-Big, not-yet-an-Aidan placeholder, but the legacy of the Post-it has remained.

Now we live in the age of Tinder and Hinge, when it’s possible to exchange witty banter with a potential partner without ever leaving your room. Given the ever-increasing indignities ofHear me out: Berger actually took the time toand leave them for his girlfriend to find. Cowardly, sure, but compared to a “hey sry dont think i can do this :(” text received at 4 a.m., it’s practically a carefully composed love letter from John Adams to his wife Abigail.
