    Jake would not leave his gorgeous blonde girlfriend for a plain Jane like Sam! As soon as Jake & Sam went to school as a couple everybody would laugh at him and think he was nuts!

      Really, that's all you got out of one of the best high school comedies of all time? Lighten up & have a laugh.

        Also, there is no way Jake and Sam could eat cake while sitting on the table.

            Why wouldn't it happen? Early on in the movie, we know that Jake isn't shallow, and doesn't care about things like status and looks. He's looking for something more meaningful in a relationship. Plus, Sam was cute and quirky, and I think she was very pretty, in a totally different way than Carolyn.

              Anybody that picks a potential love solely for looks is asking for trouble.

                Or using chairs, for that matter.

                  Because of the peer pressure at school. If Jake and Sam walked hand in hand at their high school as a couple everyone would stare and laugh at them. Not happening!

                    Maybe Jake didn't care what other people thought. Look what they did to his house, they trashed it!

                      Really? You'd laugh at a big, strong senior that looked to be about 30 years old and had the richest family in town? You have more guts than I.

                        Were kids really that shallow and stupid in the '80s? When I was in high school in the '60s, nobody would have laughed or judged.
                        There are 8.2 billion people in the world. 8.19 billion of them have never heard of and don't give a fuck about Charlie Kirk. Get over it.

                          I think I agree with op.
                          Without strife, your victory has no meaning.
                          Without strife, you do not advance.
                          Without strife, there is only stagnation.

                            I always wondered why Jake would bother to date Sam knowing he's graduating in a few months and most likely going to college the next fall while Sam still has two years of high school left. So why start something you know won't last?
                            Plus imagine the flak Carolyn would get from everyone for dating a freshman nerd..

                                  First of all, relax. It's just a comedy. Secondly there's no accounting for taste.

                                    Jake obviously digs girls who have just bloomed. After graduating and leaving Sam, he went out to Massachusetts and had a quickie with another teeny named Charlotte Flax.
