Just wait until they learn that he smoked cigarettes!
That’s right, kiddos, actual cancer sticks, not some lame vaping crap.
They’re going to absolutely freak out.
The Leftist Outrage Police™ have declared the classic song, ‘Baby, It’s Cold Outside’ that is played ad nausem during the Christmas season ‘problematic’ because they don’t understand the lyrics.

The politically correct crowd in the #MeToo era have taken the 1944 song written by songwriter Frank Loesser and his lounge singer wife, Lynn, for a housewarming party that they had in New York. It was an absolute hit with the guests and was later included in the 1949 movie, Neptune’s Daughter performed by Esther Williams and Ricardo Montalban as well as hilariously reversing the roles with Red Skelton and Betty Garrett
The song, with its playful lyrics, chronicle what used to be a courtship dance between a young couple before the realm of dating apps. A young woman, concerned about protecting her reputation, didn’t want to give in to the persuasive argument of a determined suitor insistent on her staying a little longer.
But, because the lyrics include, ‘Say, what’s in this drink?‘ the leftists have decided that those lyrics mean that the guy has pulled a Bill Cosby and roofied her drink so that he can rape her.
Several radio stations have banned the song.
Last year, a couple of millennial songwriters decided to ‘fix’ the song because they don’t understand a world before the free-sex-for-all revolution (relationship or last name not required) which was pushed by feminists. Oh, sorry, I meant ’embracing of their sexuality’ because women can be as promiscuous as men with zero consequences. (Except, that’s not what happens.) Nor do they comprehend the concept of a woman being pursued by a man that she is attracted to, and not wanting to appear too ‘easy’. Nowadays, you just swipe right or left on an app if you’re interested or not. It’s pretty much killed romance.
I kinda feel bad for them for about five seconds, but then, they rewrite a classic song to ’emphasize consent’ and I think they deserve the world that they now exist in.
That’s vile.
Back in the day, if a guy I was interested in was behaving in the ‘Oh, are you still here?’ way as the guy did in that song, I’d take the hint. In this version, rather than the dance of seduction, they’re both just stupid. If you missed blonde beauty, Nicole Arbour, dismantling the outrage over the song in just 60 seconds, you can find it right here.
But, now that there is outrage over the song, the version recorded by Dean Martin in 1959 has had a surge in popularity.
Way to go, PC Police! Your protest did the exact opposite of what you hoped it would do.
The 1944 classic hit Baby It’s Cold Outside was almost a thing of Christmas past after controversy saw it banned by several stations over it’s ‘predatory undertones,’ but now sales of one of the song’s versions have soared 70 per cent…
…Despite the controversy, or likely because of it, the renewed attention to it, the Dean Martin version of the song hits the top 10 of Billboard’s Digital Song Sales chart for the first time, according to Billboard.
Dean’s version, recorded in 1959, is the chart’s Greatest Gainer, soaring from No. 31 to No. 10 on the December 22 dated list.
It is now up to 11,000 downloads old over the week that ended on December 13.
And just the week earlier it hit the charts with a 257 per cent boost with over 7,000 sold. Source: Daily Mail
“Baby It’s Cold Outside” is about mutual flirtation and seduction, and that’s bad.
But all those rap rape songs are about rape rape, so they’re OK.
I thought i heard one station was playing this song over and over again for days to go against he pc madness.
Didn’t tiny Bennett and lady gaga do a commercial to this?
Funny how Dean Martin’s music is so relevant in these times. The holiday Heineken commercial that features the decadent, dysfunctional American family to the tune “ You are nobody until somebody loves you” is another example that the less than exemplary Dean Martin knew and reached an audience that has grown and expanded considerably.
It’s like Popeyes new fried chicken box.
EMOTIONAL SUPPORT CHICKEN.
Everybody wants one.
I am outraged about that adulteress Christmas tune “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus”.
Original recording from the movie ‘Neptune’s Daughter’ sung by Ricardo Montalbán and Esther Williams:

adulterous
So sad that these people don’t know the difference between rape and seduction. First they take humor out of comedy, they they make movies dull, now they remove the fun it of falling in love.
Thanks Impala64ssa. I've noticed it blaring on the PAs everywhere I've shopped, and had a good laugh at the expense of a bunch of radical loudmouth demagogues that we will eventually be forced to kill.
Best ever version: Ray Charles/Betty Carter.
That’s why these leftards are stupid. They destroy anything and everything American they end up destroying themselves. God knows I had young employees ask me if Dean Martin was in any movies and I told them to download John Wayne movies and he was in a few of them. They also end up being John Wayne fans afterwards too LOL
Not me— Popeyes is the worst fried chicken on the planet, totally inedible.
had it once hated it
