Somebody Please Get a Clue

Haaaaave you met Jules? I can’t remember if we first bonded over our mutual love for Glee or vodka, but we definitely cemented our bloggy friendship with vodka at BlogHer.

Please give her a warm welcome today. If you’re nice to her, she’ll probably make you one of her chief chipmunks.

When Thoughtsy asked if I’d write a “Movies Teach Us” guest post, I didn’t hesitate. Movies have taught me so much. Thanks to the silver screen, I wasn’t long in this world before learning that killer bees really can kill, Reese’s Pieces are otherworldly-level yummy, and men fall in love with girls who actually would let you put them in a corner if it was up to them.

I recently watched my all-time favorite movie for the 10th 20th 30th time, and I thought it would be the perfect pick for today.

Clueless.

I totally didn’t even pause before picking this movie.

Here’s what I learned:

• “Showing a little skin” will only prolong your realization that yes, that hot guy who likes to shop really is gay.
• The correct pronunciation of “Hatians” is HAY-tee-uns.
• If you don’t wear your most capable-looking outfit, you will fail that driver’s test.
• Only yellow plaid goes with yellow plaid.
• They don’t speak Mexican in El Salvador.
