The screaming, moaning and table pounding heard Friday in New York’s Katz’s Deli was not due to the sandwiches (You wish) it was part of a fake orgasm contest. Women sat at various tables through out the deli and impressed the lunch crowd with their ability to fake one…take note men, they may have done it to you.
I have to hand it to Meg Ryan, if she never does anything else she’ll always be remembered for that scene. Also a salute to Billy Crystal because not even Tom Hank’s could have peformed the scene as stoically and bemused as he did which was capped off perfectly by Rob Reiner’s mother telling her waitress, “I’ll have what she’s having.”
It does make me wonder if I’ve ever been the victim of one of these best actress performances. I’ve never gotten any complaints but isn’t that point? For all of the shouting by some about equal pay for women it makes me think they already have enough power if they can fool us like this regularly.
Speaking for myself I’d have enjoyed the contest but probably wouldn’t have been hungry after watching it. Pastrami and orgasms don’t go together. I prefer roast beef anyway.
Someone should have inserted Linda Blair from “The Exorcist.” That would have been hilarious. I’m sure people lost their appetite and said “Check, please.” 😂
