If you had to choose the most quotable movie of all time, there's no denying it would be Mean Girls. All the prayer-hand emojis go out to Tina Fey for writing the iconic film and creating a slay that’s stood the test of time, ever since it was released back in 2004. While Gretchen Wieners is probably still trying to make "fetch" happen in 2022, you and your besties have no problems embracing your "grool" vibes together. On Oct. 3, aka the day of Cady’s infamous interaction with Aaron Samuels, or any day you’re feeling personally victimized by life, you'll want to use some of the most memorable Mean Girls quotes for Instagram to pair with your “plastic” memes and OOTD posts.

This Mean Girls Day, dress like it’s Wednesday by getting decked out in Barbiecore-pink from head to toe while sharing plenty of “It’s Oct. 3” memes to your page. So, get yourself a pretty-in-pink outfit selfie to post to the 'Gram, and caption it with one of the Plastics' legendary lines. Whether you're Team "Fetch" or "It's Not Going To Happen," you and your crew definitely need to celebrate by having a besties' night in to watch the movie.

It's true that the limit does not exist — when it comes to how many times you rewatch Mean Girls, that is — and that also applies to the best Mean Girls lines you love to laugh at and unironically embody. Check out the best 80 Mean Girls quotes you can use as Instagram captions for a “Fetch” ‘fit pic or pinkalicious squad photo on a Wednesday.
