Good choice.
Yes. For me it was "The Sure Thing" (also with John Cusack) but either is acceptable.

Every year at this time I find myself at minimum daily quoting "Better Off Dead"...

It is all the reason you need, but there are more. The blowjob masterclass being one of them.

The 80s—you had to be there, I guess. Some of these movies are hard to defend in 2023, but they have a certain charm.

The 80s had a kind of comedy that was very distinctive of that time. You could see some signa of it in the 70s, but even by the early 90s, it was like the movie industry had moved along to something else.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
