This Dirty Dancing tee by Jawbreaking pays tribute to one of the most memorable lines in cinematic history. If you're anything like me, Dirty Dancing is a sleepover favorite. Sweaty dance montages? Check. Dreamy Patrick Swazye? Check. A goosebump-worthy finale? Check. I mean, what's not to love?

The shirt riffs on the classic line, "Nobody puts Baby in a corner," switching it to the more direct "Nobody's Baby." We can't all have a charming gent coming to our rescue, but that's perfectly okay; you're more than capable of advocating for yourself. Flaunt your single status with a sense of empowerment!

With this Dirty Dancing tee, you can advertise both your independence, as well as your great taste in movies.
