If you stop hanging out in the "Banana Hammock Nightclub" you probably won't hear this so much.

It never comes up in normal conversation. Possibly online if someone is referring to a strength feat.

Read it on here, but never heard anyone say this in person about anyone.  I've heard "animal" used a lot.

Well it has been in use for a few hundred years, comparing someone to an animal. The context has changed. In Victorian times saying "how beastly" meant how uncivilised. Now it means animalistic in terms of strength etc.

Look how often sick and bad are used by people here. To mean good and good.

That is what I thought.  With a slight bit of admiration and a great deal of worship involved.

I call most of my workmates a sexy beast of a man but it's really a sarcastic reference to how much more better looking I am than them

Yes, the beast being something other than human, definitely some admiration in there, the way you admire how a horse runs or a lion roars.

A golem is also a form of beast, so if someone uses that word in front of you they are likely poking fun of your extra-chromosome-esque looks.

Care to post a decade old picture for us?

In Jewish folklore, a golem is an animated anthropomorphic being, magically created entirely from inanimate matter.

Women are anthropomorphic beings made from inanimate ribs in Christian folklore.

Beast means a wild animal. So it suggests savagrey. However like every word the meaning and usage evolves and depends on where you are.
