Things You Learned From "Striptease"


1) Asking a snake handling stripper you just met, a total stranger just hired from another club, to watch your 8 year old daughter while you leave unexpectedly for a few hours, is good parenting.

2) Burt Reynolds wears thin after the first ninety seconds.

3) Annie Lennox hasn't had a hit CD in 20 years.

Next?

Good Post!! You nailed it! If I may add something to your list of this movie:

1. Getting a job as a stripper when you seriously want custody of your child.

Any judge would probably NOT grant custody to a woman who dances nude for creepy men in sleazy strip joints knowing most of the places have drugs and prostitution. I use to live in Florida, the club depicted in here is no way how they really are. FL strip joints get a lot of shootings, drugs, prostitution,diseases,etc... I mean really what judge is going to believe when a dude gives a stripper two hundred dollars for a "private back room lap dance" nothing's going on. Demi was good in this, but the plot sucked, and most of the acting and it's unrealistic too think being a nude dancer for a living would convince the courts. I mean any job but that.

4) Whenever you have a broken arm, use it to write and climb and even to smack people unconscious.

5) If you see a black limo-driver in the US, ask him if he speaks english, just in case he just landed from Moscow.

6) Limo-drivers will not only answer candidly when asked what they think of their employer, but they will instantly drop everything to help anyone kidnap said employer, may he be a congressman or not.

7) If a limo-driver doesn't like his employer, we will get along just fine because surely that means he is willing to kidnap him or worse.

8) Strippers don't even recognize their own pets.

9) Golf clubs fix broken arms just fine.

10) US cops have jurisdiction over the whole continent.

11) Rumer Willis looked human once before the chin kicked in (ok that's mean )


People who don't like their beliefs being laughed at shouldn't have such funny beliefs
