OK, that scene was, as we know, a little extreme. But I'd be lying (as I believe you would be too) if I said I've never felt that level of anger and frustration with my partner. And in examining all aspects of her character in that movie, it's so simple to understand how things got THAT extreme. So, here are my "Lessons Learned from Perfect Patty" -
1. No one and nothing in this life is perfect.
2. The worst possible way to handle a problem is to ignore, bottle up emotions, and pretend that all is well.
3. Yes, there are most definitely times when I'd LOVE to say "F*ck you, eat a d*ck and die, you complete waste of flesh and bones!!"; however, that doesn't help anything (well, maybe a little...but it's not productive). You have to learn to express what you're feeling in a clear, concise, and productive manner. Anger does NOT have to equal drama.
4. You don't need to overreact in response to another person's overreaction to your actions - or inactions - (does that even make sense??).
5. Hiring a gay male stripper to jump out of a cake at your partner's job may not be classy, but damn if it ain't funny.
