    If you are on EOD in Iraq, it's ok if you get out of your bomb suit to disarm some bombs. (The Hurt Locker.)

    If you are in a sniper battle, someone can pick up a Barret .50 cal with little to no sniper training and take 4 shots to kill a sniper that has your position zeroed in. (The Hurt Locker.)

    If you can kick a live palm tree enough times, it will fall over. (Kickboxer.)

    Every knife can be thrown accurately no matter how heavy or off kilter it is.

    You don't need to look down the sights of a weapon when shooting it.

    There are never enough American actors to play American parts, so they always recruit Canadian, British, Australian, Irish, or New Zealanders as actors.

    and if you are at a non-beach location, and happen to run into a metrically challenged/ appearance deficient individual, then they will be a) well dressed b) have perfect teeth and hair and c) have some awesome skill that makes up for their shortcomings- ex: they'll have amazing computer coding skills, or they'll be exceptionally funny, etc...

    And all truly bad guys (not an accidental bad guy, or the misunderstood kind) are white and have English accents. The original Star Wars is the best demonstration of this principle.

    oh, and one of my favorites that I learned from watching sitcoms: New York, Los Angeles, and various other big cities are populated with attractive and interesting/ quirky single people who live in huge studio apartments with all their friends nearby AND they support their extravagant and luxurious lifestyles by occasionally working in entry level minimum wage jobs. (Friends, I'm looking at you.)

    Any woman running for her life in high heels never thinks to take them off.

    Fat guys have hot wives and girlfriends. Chubby women have lots of issues and cats.

    ...And chubby cats have websites with millions of fans. Oh wait, that's in real life :)

    Nor do her feet, knees or ankles hurt, when she is done running.

    If a deranged serial killer is on the loose stay far away from Jamie lee Curtis and Nev cambell.

    If zombie apocalypse happens find mila jovovich and stay as close to her as possible. Or find the most redneck area in the country and get there asap

    Hacking into a computer system involves using a richly colored 3D interface.

    And can generally be done in 30 seconds or less, no matter how strong the encryption.

    that's no joke. If the zombie apocalypse happens, I'm going back to Mississippi.

    and any computer use always requires a steady stream of typing on the keyboard, even if they're checking their email or surfing the internet.

    On a related note, computer keys are still as noisy as they were in 1984.

    youngunn Where's my TSD aftershave balm???

    Or how about the computers on the show Bones that HAS to make little boop beep noises while it's computing. And can recreate a persons entire facial features from a skull in 30 seconds.... With a hologram projector.

    Along similar lines... most computers also have verbal UIs and understand conversational human speech perfectly every time.

    True, no matter how heavy a regional accent the speaker has.

    Rather than wasting bullets, megalomaniacs prefer to kill their arch-enemies using complicated machinery involving fuses, pulley systems, deadly gasses, lasers, and man-eating sharks, which will allow their captives at least 20 minutes to escape.

    All beds have special L-shaped cover sheets that reach up to the armpit level on a woman but only to waist level on the man lying beside her.

    A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating but will wince and usually gasp when a woman tries to clean his wounds.

    All women love to wear high heels, no matter how tall they are or how much running they have to do.
