Another one- Ever notice, that no matter where someone lives or works in a big city, that city's skyline and landmarks are ALWAYS clearly visible, no
matter where the location? If someone lives in Seattle, you can ALWAYS see the Space Needle, or if someone lives in NYC, you can ALWAYS see the Empire State
building, or if they're in Paris, it's the Eiffel Tower.

This reminds me of my big pet peeve. Why is it that on shows like Law & Order when the detectives are interviewing people in their homes or work, do the people continue doing whatever it was they were doing like nothing important is happening? If police showed up at my house wanting to ask questions about my dead neighbor/grandma/sugar daddy, I wouldn't continue vacuuming watering plants like it was no big deal. That's so true!  There's always a scene like this-
Cop walks into beauty salon ''Miss Sanchez? I'm here to ask you a few questions, about the rape and murder of your coworker, Miss Jones.'' Miss Sanchez is in the midst of putting perm rods on a woman's hair. She continues setting the perm, as she speaks. The woman getting the perm sits there, oblivious. ''It was awful! I came in to open the shop on Tuesday morning, and Cindy was laying there, dead! There was blood EVERYWHERE! Oh, hon, could you hand me that comb? Yeah, thanks... Anyway, poor Cindy had duct tape over her eyes and mouth, and her throat was slit. I screamed so loud, because I wasn't sure if the killer was still here, hiding in the back...Oh, that reminds me! Rita! Do we have any more Lady Clairol G27? Be a sweetie, and run in the back and mix some up for me? Anyway...Cindy's ex boyfriend used to come around all the time, looking for money. Big time crackhead, you know.'' ''Interesting. Tell me, was he ever into taxidermy, or hunting? Because the body was dissected in a very professional manner. We aren't dealing with your run of the mill crackhead.'' ''Now that you mention it, Cindy said he used to be a veterinarian, before he got hooked on drugs. Once, when he got mad at her, he disemboweled her poodle. Horrible! He just hacked the poor thing up, and...Oh, I'm sorry! I haven't offered you any coffee!'' |

I noticed this today while watching Monster In Law. Why is it that after a wedding ceremony they never have a wedding reception. The bride always throws the
bouquet as she's walking out of the church.

I mean I get that they want to show "real characters" doing "real things" but come on. People on L&O are always so nonchalant. I bet if the police came to talk to me and I continued walking down the street, they'd be like "hey, I'm talking to you. Stop your ass right here or we're going down to the station." |

Apparently pregnant women near their due date never wear underwear. When they end up having their babies in cabs or in elevators or wherever, nobody ever seems
to pull off their panties to give birth.

I got another one from watching TV today:
No matter what TV show or Movie, whenever someone needs an alcoholic drink ASAP, there is always a bar in whoevers house they are in, and they always have a crystal decanter with scotch in it.

My thing used to be why no one ever has to use the bathroom in tv/movies. Of course the scary movie citizens turned "detective." Run yo ass out the
house. Away from whatever noises you hear. Oh and why do people always have to trip as they run? Are people really that clumsy?
Also and this might be a new one. In television characters always live in the nicest of apartments/houses no matter what their income. (The one exception would be Roseanne. That show was the truth). But look at "Friends." They had some very nice, large apartments to be living in NY. And also to chime in on the Law & Order thing: those people be giving the police a lot of attitude and lip. I'd be so scared. I would sit there and cooperate to the best of my ability. I guess it's usually the guilty ones who have to stay busy so they don't get caught up in their lies. One more, and this is new: Why do suspects always give in so easily on tv. Someone tells them what they did, and they just start confessing. I'm like just don't say anything!!! I'm pretty sure it does not happen like that in real life. Lol! |

and I decided that when I got my own place, I was going to have one of those trays sitting on a table in the living room with scotch and brandy and water. It
seemed so classy. I never did do that though.

When people talk aloud to themselves in public, or places they can be heard. Like in 16 Candles, when Samantha is at the dance and she's in the hallway
practicing how she's going to talk to Jake Ryan. Who the fuck does that?!?!
