I can’t wait to see the new Ghostbusters movie. It’s gonna be so fun to see a bunch of badass women busting ghosts. And speaking of ghosts: I haven’t heard from you for two whole days. “Who you gonna call?” It better be me and it better be soon.
Texting would also be fine.
Some purists think that ghostbusting is “a man’s job.” But the truth is, there is no job on earth that a woman can’t do! A woman can do your job, whatever it is, which, by the way, is a fact I would know about you if you’d just text me back and let me get to know you. I’m not fucking playing around.
It’s important for young girls to see themselves reflected in mainstream entertainment. When I was a kid, I had no interest in movies like Star Wars or the original Ghostbusters. I couldn’t relate to them, so why should I care? But now the world is changing, and you need to get on board by texting me the fuck back. Are you a coward? I swear to god, I’m going to find out where you sleep.
Underrepresentation of women in Hollywood is a real issue. Only 19% of the directors, writers, producers, editors and cinematographers who worked on the top 250 grossing films last year were women. Conversely, 100% of the last three people who texted me back are women, and we are going to band together and publicly bust your ass if you ghost me. Do you want me to post a Facebook status saying you have crabs? Because I’ll do it, I swear.
At the end of the day, I really don’t want to go see the new Ghostbusters alone, and neither do you. Unless you’re dead and that’s the reason you won’t text me back? I won’t mind if you are an actual ghost. Either way, just fucking let me know!
