One user then made a cheeky reference to the infamous breakup scene fromSex and the CitybetweenCarrie Bradshaw(Sarah Jessica Parker) and boyfriend Jack Berger (Ron Livingston)
In the seventh episode of season 6, titled “The Post-It Always Sticks Twice," Jack leaves Carrie in the middle of the night, leaving a break-up message on a yellow Post-It that simply reads “I’m sorry, I can’t. Don’t hate me.” Carrie’s reaction to being dumped via Post-It would become one of the series morememorable scenes.
