No offense, Mike, but I can totally see you sipping your martini and watching "Sex in the City" with your girls and comparing show story to real-life.
I know this comment is purely in jest, however that tv show is perhaps the single pop culture phenomenon most responsible for the continued foofication of the martini. The pink, sweet, not particularly strong drink, consumed by stupid bitches, known as a cosmo...is a cocktail. It is not a martini.
