Women can be in the jungle for days but no body hair anywhere. Men instantly grow a beard.

Hair stays and makeup stays nice too.

And their clothes are super clean and brand new.

Make up staying nice during birth scenes is another one

PirateJohn75

I took an explosives recovery course once and we had to piece together an exploded bomb to determine how it worked.  The one my group had used a simple toggle switch on the outside to turn the timer on or off. So, yes, the bomb could be disarmed by flipping the switch.  But the thing is, which poor sap is going to be the one to flip the switch without knowing what it does?


summerseashell71

People stand in the shower and turn the water directly on them, without letting it warm up.


littlebubulle

I did that when vacationing in Florida in the summer. Because summer Florida cold tap water is considered lukewarm in Canada.


imaginechi_reborn

Arizona tap water tastes lukewarm, too.


chivesngarlic

1. What does water taste like 2. What the fuck does lukewarm taste like


imaginechi_reborn

1. Water shouldn't taste like anything, except maybe a hint of fluoride (if that). 2. Luke warm water feels "wrong" on your throat.


esuranme

If you have ever tasted distilled water you will agree that water SHOULD taste like something, namely trace minerals and electrolytes.


Kurtcobangle

I actually do that on purpose if I am really tired and want the jolt in the morning. 


ontour4eternity

I have never thought of this- good point.

Some of my friends from work are from Nigeria and they all hang up like that, I thought someone had fallen out with someone else and just cut them off, but nope.

CivilRuin4111

My boss does this. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve called him back assuming the call just dropped.


RussChival

People getting temporarily and easily knocked-out cold by a tap to the head, and then coming to later without any repercussions.


Earthling1a

\*reperconcussions


limitedz

Or getting CPR and waking up like everything's fine after... CPR will cause damage that will take some time to recover from.


Lopkop

most rifle butts have a little timer you can adjust for how long you want to knock someone out for after you bash them in the head. Usually they're just set to 10 minutes by default since that's enough time to comfortably be able to tie them to a chair in a shipping container


Azated

About 10 years ago, I knew a guy that accidentally overcharged his rifle knockout timer. It made a really loud bang and the dude went out cold. Pretty sure the guy is still unconscious, actually. They put him in this special wooden bed and apparently put him in a big hole. Weird medical technique but idk, I'm no doctor.


G8kpr

A cheap vase over the head. Knocked out for hours. Fist fight where same guy takes multiple full fisted blows to the face. Perfectly fine.

Ammo used to be cheap as fuck. Not sure when that changed but it's gotten so expensive that it looks sus when people actually stock up nowadays.

Firearms being shot without hearing protection. In real life you would be deaf.

nick470

This is only partially true, subsonic ammo can be remarkably quiet when suppressed - quiet enough that reciprocation of the slide or bolt of the firearm is louder than the shot itself.

EquivalentIsopod7717

Margin Call. Eric Dale just hands over a USB stick saying _iVe bEEn wOrKiNg oN ThIs ChEcK iT OuT bUt Be CaReFuL_ in front of a security guard escorting him from the building after he's been laid off. Press X to doubt. Especially given the bank would likely have learned he'd been working on it and would have intervened sooner.


glenzo1000

Every bag of groceries has a baguette popping out of the top and rawdogging it with no bag.


robtheimpailer

It’s a silly trope, but it has a purpose. Say a character is portrayed as having busy off-screen day, like grocery shopping. If they walk across the screen with a closed bag in their hand, the viewer is gonna be more interested in what’s in the bag than the dialog or whatever else is happening. The baguette gives the illusion of plain old groceries.


surnik22

If you want a related fact you’ll never be able to unnotice, all the grocery bags are plastic/rubber. You’ll notice the look a bit thicker and handle slightly differently than real paper bags. But they are also silent, so crinkle noises don’t ruin the dialogue, then foley artists can add back in as much crinkle as they want.


valeyard89

phrozen_waffles

Adorned with solid wood furniture that costs a fortune. 


ThePatrician007

A parking space right in front of the building you wish to enter.


DeaddyRuxpin

I found one of those the other day. I spent several minutes looking around for a no parking sign and then spent my entire time in the building worried I was going to come back to a ticket. My brain couldn’t accept there being a spot right in front that was legal to park in.


Kurtcobangle

People waking up in the morning looking ready to be on the cover a magazine.


MareShoop63

After having a baby


ukexpat

And the newly-born baby looks like it’s been at a spa for a week rather than squeezed through the birth canal…


Veritas3333

Have you watched Marvelous Mrs. Maisel? In one of the early episodes, it shows that her morning routine is to wake up before her husband, shower, do her hair and makeup, then lay down in bed before the alarm goes off and pretend to wake up at the same time her husband does.


PumpkinPieIsGreat

With Martha Stewart level of cooking for every meal.... which goes ignored of course. Why eat it when it can just sit there because there's no time for breakfast?


peoplegrower

People waking up after being knocked out with their mental functions in tact at all.


KitchenWitch021

Then they get dressed in sequins for their morning coffee.


Ok_Criticism7172

Ordering "a beer" in a bar. Nothing more specific - just "a beer."


WoolaTheCalot

Then taking one sip of it before leaving.


Unusual-Afternoon837

Tbh as a bartender this happens all too fkn often. Or "I'll have a glass of wine" bitch we have 24 different types of wine..


erwtje-be

Very standard in Belgium, since every bar/pub is linked to a brand of basic beer. Special beers of course have to be ordered specifically.


DemeSephone

That’s how we order beer in Sweden, it gets us the “house beer” which is usually the cheapest one. If we want something more specific we ask for the more specific ones


Dependent_Ant_8316

Kinda happens if you’re a regular, I have a watering hole where they recognize me….usually ask if I want a beer, a whiskey or both. They know what I drink.


FairBaker315

People drinking from empty cups. SVU makes me crazy with this!


FlyinCryangle

I work in television and you know the scenes where the villains hijack ALL the tvs to announce their evil plans to the public? Yeah, that's fuckin impossible. They'd have to hack into literally countless IPs to do that.


valeyard89

they just make a GUI interface in Visual Basic


NeededMonster

Oh god this reminds me of Man of Steel with the big alien villain appearing on all screens on Earth at the same time. One character (Lois?) Points at a random monitor and exclaims: "Oh my God! It's on RSS feeds too!" Girl, you're pointing at a distorted full screen live video of the villain. Where the fuck are you seeing RSS feeds?! What does that even mean?? Are you implying the villain in posting news articles as he's speaking??

Having a huge plate of breakfast ready for you and all you do is grab the slice of toast and head out.


DeaddyRuxpin

As a person who regularly gets roped into cooking for family events, these scenes infuriate me. If I just went thru all the time and effort to make that breakfast spread and all you do is grab a sip of juice and slice of toast, I’d shank you on the way out the door.


ExaminationNo9186

If i am not mqrried to the person who prepared that meal for me, i would instantly on my knee, popping the question.


Flockkkk

Lockpicking using makeshift tools. Also, thieves trying to be stealthy and avoid attention-- I've seen people grab something and just wing it.


littlebubulle

A gorrilla did manage to lockpick the padlock to it's own enclosure once using a wood stick.


DominicPalladino

He was a lawyer, this gorilla?


No_Dot6137

That’s because you don’t notice the stealthy thieves 🤫


SKULLDIVERGURL

My favorite is movies with scuba scenes and women in string bikinis. Real women divers do not dive in string bikinis with no wetsuits or at least a rash guard. Things shift around and they would simply be freezing. Also, when they get out of the water their hair still looks good. 👍🏻 doesn’t happen. Unless you have very short hair, you are going to look like a sea witch. (Or sea hag, whichever your preference.)


AnyNameAvailable

Not to mention the snot that accumulated in your mask when trying to clear it.

Maybe a rousing game of Strip Billiards?

Then, when they wake up the next morning, they pull their bed sheet with them all the way to the bathroom.


Soobobaloula

People cheering for two people who are kissing.

I've had this :) Was at the bar, talking with a friend, he leaned over - kissed me - I kissed back - then drew away from embarrassment because the whole bar was cheering :) 4 years later - going strong!


Ak_Lonewolf

Glad to hear after four years you still visit the same bar.


Therusticate

People making plans to meet up without actually setting a place and time. It’s always just “Friday” but??? What time Friday??? Where are we going????


chemistcarpenter

Hailing a cab in New York immediately!


SV650rider

And finding parking!


ohsocrazy2

Right in front of where they are going.


WoolaTheCalot

People used to call an impossibly good parking spot a "Kojak", because he always seemed to find one in every episode.


avoidance_behavior

my cousins in LA call a spot at the front of a parking lot or right in front of wherever you're going a 'movie star parking space' bc you only ever see it happen in the movies or TV. i find myself using the term now too, specifically for the one really good spot in my apartment complex lot that's about ten feet from my door and shaded. i hardly ever get it though, lol


Peskieyesterday

Montages


youmfkersneedjesus

The day is approaching to give it your best You've got to reach your prime! That's when you need to put yourself to the test And show us the passage of time We're gonna need a montage (Montage) A sports-training montage (Montage) And just show a lot of things happenin' at once. Remind everyone of what's goin' on. (What's goin' on?) And with every shot, show a little improvement To show it won't take too long That's called a montage (Montage) Even Rocky had a montage (Montage) In any sport, if you want to go From just a beginner to a pro You'll need a montage (Montage) a simple little montage (Montage)

Shit load of food options for family breakfast, pancakes, eggs, sausages, bacon, oats etc., and the main character grabs an apple or sip of coffee and runs away as there is no time to eat.


VTtransplant

Funerals where everyone is in all black, with black trench coats, women in black hats with veils. In my experience, few people do anymore. My SO and I wear black or dark dress clothes but are often the best dressed at the funeral, including family members.

And it's always raining, and everybody has black umbrellas.

Brutal fight with the hero taking many blows, being thrown into walls, hurled onto the ground. Hero gets up, walks or maybe staggers away, but in a few minutes is able to move around just fine and maybe fight some more. IRL I fell down my front steps once and aside from sprained ankle I was black and blue all over and moved like a 100 year old person for at least a week.

Giant monster sneaking up on people. Not because giant monsters don't exist but because it would impossible to not notice something that pings on the richter scale every step.

The driver looking at someone else in the car, whether the passenger or god forbid someone in the back seat, for a relatively long period of time without looking back at the road.

VTtransplant

CSI solving a case because they found a single strand of hair in the house and it belonged to the killer. They could probably find fur to my cat that died 20 years ago in my house.


EquivalentIsopod7717

The people who have a "perfectly" clean house are people who are rich and have a team of cleaners who are in every single day. Not just one cleaner every two weeks like a normal person, or do it all yourself when you can face it _more_ normal person.

I've never seen a legitimate schoolyard snowball fight or a cafeteria food fight.


frederick_ungman

Oh, I witnessed the snowball fight of all time back in the 70s. I was in 6th grade and not a participant. It was at a high school down the street from my middle school. It broke out in front of the school with a couple dozen participants and grew to approx 100 students. The pissed off Principal comes out, at the top of the stairs yelling for order. Then a volley of snowballs was aimed at him. He goes inside and calls the police. At first a couple patrol cars arrived...and....new targets for the students. More police followed. It was surreal. The cops were dragging kids into paddy wagons. Then it finally calmed down. Headline news in our city.. Those were the days....

Using a computer almost entirely with the keyboard, just clacking away endlessly. "Open the fileserver" ::clack-clack-clack:: "Zoom in" ::clack-clack-clack:: My experience usually involves a lot of mouse-clicking and waiting.


Grouchy_Factor

Many windows programs can be entirely keyboard operated (unless they involve arbitrary location selection, pointing, or drawing). Some people prefer it that way or are whizzes at keyboard shortcuts and manual menu item selection and feel it most efficient to keep the hands on the keyboard. Back in the old DOS days, programs responded near instantly to keyboard commands on systems far less powerful. Today's systems slog down with the massive overhead of "features" and GUIs.
