Get In Loser, We're Going Shopping

About

"Get in Loser, We're Going Shopping" is a memorable quote from the 2004 teen comedy film Mean Girls often used as a caption in photographs of animals in vehicles, in similar vein to the image macro series "There's No Time to Explain".

Origin

The quote is taken from a scene in Mean Girls wherein the antagonist Regina George (played by Rachel McAdams) drives up to the protagonist Cady Heron (played by Lindsay Lohan) in a sports convertible car and yells “Get in loser! We’re going shopping” (shown below).
