About

So You Agree is a memorable quote uttered by the character Regina George in the 2004 comedy film Mean Girls. Online, people use the quote and an image of the character to highlight another's hypocrisy.

Origin

On April 30th, 2004, Paramount Pictures released the film Mean Girls in the United States.[1] In the film, Regina George and Cady Heron (portrayed by Rachel McAdams and Lindsay Lohan have the following exchange about Cady's appearance:

Regina: But you’re like really pretty.

Cady: Thanks.

Regina: So you agree…

Cady: What?

Regina: You think you’re really pretty?

Regina traps Cady into saying that she finds herself pretty, before making her feel ashamed of the admission (clip below).
