Let’s face it — the only time you ever learn anything worthwhile in life is when you’re watching a movie.
Here’s just a sampling of lessons I’ve learned:
- Never fall asleep with your hand between two pillows.
- When floating in the frigid ocean, find a bigger door.
- If high school’s social injustices are bringing you down, just dance. It’ll be okay.
The last one was from one of my favorite teen-angst movies, The Breakfast Club.
Or as I like to call it, The One Where Judd Nelson Goes All Punk On Emilio Estevez’s Ass.
Thoughtsy, from the hilarious and Pop-Tart-y blog Thoughts Appear, has often bestowed upon her readers the lessons she’s learned from movies in her brilliant series, Movies Teach Us.
And dude, I was like, totally stoked to have a chance to write about The One Where Ally Sheedy is Super Disgusting.
So listen up punks, because you’re in detention now–

…and maybe you’ll learn a few things from The Breakfast Club.
(If you’ve learned any other lessons, be sure to leave them in the comments. I could use all the help I can get.)
