The pop culture reference in this hilarious mug by Etsy Store Perks of Aurora might be lost on a few people. At least, those who haven't seen the 1997 film 'Romy and Michele's High School Reunion.
The film follows a pair of single, unambitious best friends (Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino) who decide to reinvent themselves and their abysmal lives in time for their ten-year high school reunion.
Spoiler Alert: it doesn't go so well. At least, not at first. In an attempt to impress their former classmates (and tormentors), the girls make up a lie about inventing Post-Its that quickly spirals out of control (not to mention, fools nobody). Alas, all's well that ends well, and in the end, the girls become successes in their own right.
