Yes these and also detective 1: but I don't think they did it, the witness said it was a grey coat but there are 50 grey coats people are wearingboss: I don't care the suspect looks shifty and was wearing a grey coat so charge him, we need the crime arrest rate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chocolate Addict Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Most actors can't fake drinking from an empty cup! Yep, I mean how hard would it be for them to put some water or juice etc in to a cup? Lawyers that only have to open a file, look at it for a few seconds and know what it is about and what they need to do next.Big bosses that have no filing cabinets or any sign of actual work on their desks but are always super busy on their computer. lolJust thought of another one - when female characters are chilling out at home but wearing stiletto heels, really? doesn't everyone take their shoes off when they get home? or at least change in to flats? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloFlo Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 There's always a stereotype. Every show, every movie. The gay guy who is loud and flamboyantThe nerd who just wants to be lovedThe weird one who's a super smart genius who is the only one who can rescue everyone elseThe tough guy who keeps getting into trouble and needs to rely on the weird one to rescue them. Probably heaps more. Also...No one goes to the toiletNothing malfunctionsKitchen is always stocked - can't believe they never have to rush down to Coles 20 minutes before closing time if they want to eat that night.

He'll shout at the TV every time - "What are you doing!? That's disgusting! Take your shoes off!". Mine is when a pregnant character spontaneously breaks their waters and is immediately whisked off to hospital to have their baby delivered. Until I had DD I had no idea that waters don't always spontaneously break! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunaFreya Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Tee hee. I was told that when my waters broke to expect a gush like on TVPhoniness in acting. I can’t stand Glee for this reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosie28 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Every time a female character looks at a calendar the story is that she had no idea but yes! Pregnant.

Bee Girl Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Dinosaurs without feathers. Ye’s, Jurassic Park was brilliant and groundbreaking in its day, but our knowledge of dinosaurs has come a very long way since the mid 1990s, so upgrade your designs you slackarses. Not all dinosaurs had feathers. Most theropods did by the cretacious but Triassic dinosaurs definitely did not. For example stegosaurus. Also Most Pterosaurs although they flew also did not have feathers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
