Chick Flicks & Beer: Dirty Dancing (1987)

Directed by Emile Ardolino
Starring Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey

Nobody puts Baby in a corner!

What the hell does that even mean?

I know, I know. Nobody could believe it. I had never seen Dirty Dancing. I had no idea about Baby's summers at the lake. I had no idea about Patrick Swayze's smooth moves. I had no idea that "nobody puts Baby in a corner". Frankly, I feel like I've been living in the dark all these years.

Why should I have seen Dirty Dancing! I grew up with three brothers. Not one of us had any desire to watch Dirty Dancing. Or, maybe they watched it when I wasn't around. Road House, well that was another story. I've probably seen Road House 100 times. Road House is Awesome! But, I'm not here to talk about Road House. I'm here to discuss Dirty Dancing.

Dirty Dancing is a good movie. I might even slip it into my Sunday afternoon 80's Rainy Day Afternoon repetiore. It was very entertaining. The Dancing, The Dirtiness, The Dirty Dancing, that scene on the tree. Omg, that was hot. The montage scene was incredible! I really did have "the time of my life" watching this movie. The 80's Rock!

What is up with that college douchebag getting that girl pregnant? Oh, no he didn't... That is just plain wrong. And, we all know that teenagers didn't have sex back then. So, there was inconsistency there. And, am I wrong, or does the good Doctor owe Johnny Castle an apology. Don't mess with Johnny Castle! You hear me people!

Side note: Why did Jennifer Grey get a nose job? What the hell?

Ummmm, no comment.

BOTTOM LINE: Dirty Dancing is Dirty, Intense, Sexual, Intense, Sensual, Intense, and Dirty, and Intense. Nobody puts Baby in a corner!

For Dirty Dancing, I chose Abita Turbo Dog. I've had Turbo Dog before and it's very good...Try one.

FORCE THE BOYFRIEND: Not Applicable

!!!!COMMENTS HALL OF FAME!!!!

GET OVER THE CATS, ALREADY!

"Yes, I admit, we single ladies have cats. God, is it so wrong for a guy to actually like a f*cking cat?! They are self sufficient, just like they "really want their women" and they aren't dumb...well, I'll admit, like guys want their women. I really enjoyed the middle of this movie but hated the predictable ending and beginning as well. There was some good advice in it but obviously, it backfired on the neurotic, control freak and she resulted in telling the "ugly truth" about herself. Guys expect us to accept them as they are and look past their poor grooming habits "down there" (if you know what I mean boys).... and their inability to look at themselves as not "perfect specimens". However, we women go through some brutal and I mean brutal shit to become the perfect, idealistic, bimbo-esque-with a brain, but not too much so he isn't threatened, selves!

It is hard to just lay it out there for someone and be yourself!!!! I admit. I play the game and I play it well. But it is tiring. It is frustrating. And, it has left me 100% alone. Therefore, I am left wondering, what is better...The girl he wants me to be or the girl I am. Dark Beer drinker, skinny because of Pilates which means yes, boys, I am flexible...look past the mouth that is telling you to f*ck off and realize, it is all in good fun...embrace it, scotch drinker...etc...I could go on and on but until someone is ready to take on a challenge and not take the easy way out...I would rather be single.
