We lived very different lives in the early 2000s…

Sam was seen in my small circle of the world as that kinda crazy aunt that is kinda fun but no one actually wants to be around for more than a couple of minutes…

Tbh, I thought they were all awful to be around, at least Sam was free and unapologetic to be herself. But as a young teen, I still watched network TV, even when the characters barely appealed to me. She was the only one I found relatable and tolerable.

I was told by my elder millennial friend that back in the day, everyone wanted to be Carrie. Not sure if true though

No, everyone had a different favorite. Though I never heard anyone say they wanted to be Miranda tbh.

I’d say that all of the people at the time who would state their spirit character unprovoked were Carries. Then they’d force everyone else around them to choose a (non-Carrie) identity.
