Why do they always show the time one the clock for the last play anyway? Once its snapped, the clock ticking down to zero is irrelevant but they act like its Basketball where the QB has to get it out of his hands before the clock hits zero.

yeah, that always irks me for some reason

You'd have to literally be standing at the door waiting for someone to knock to answer it that quickly

this was discussed in the movie Dreamcatcher. They reference the movie Promised Land with Meg Ryan as one of the only movies that acknowledge the existence of morning breath

No cleanup.
you just fall right to sleep after a night of flawless, hot looking sex. Wake up the next morning in fresh sheets and never needing a towel.

chick flick America's Sweethearts did a morning breath scene too. It was pretty cute




One chef can run an entire restaurant (or catering company)in cute clothes, nails and makeup done and also have plenty of time off for a social life.

Courtrooms are always really nice looking places with marble, carved wood and statues.

Professor's offices are also always really nice.

Bells ring to end classes in college

Take a wild trip anywhere by yourself and on your first second of arrival find totally trustworthy people to hang out and sleep with.

Yes! What *is* that? The only place it doesn't really bother me is in Indiana Jones. I can believe that maybe in the '40s this was actually done at some small colleges (no proof, it just doesn't seem as ridiculous in that movie)

Cops show photo of dead body

"Oh she was Murdered? well I did some guy come and grab her, tie her up and throw her in a van, but i didnt think nothing of it. Thats all I know"

i think everyone already has a better memory than me anyway, but i can't remember what my wife wore on friday much less what some guy/chick at the bar was wearing.

and by friday i mean this morning.

yeah you beat me to it. it happens all the time.


i can't watch a sex scene in a movie when they just roll over when done and not think about why aren't they cleaning up.

also i know position switches aren't always discussed or confirmed ahead of time but i promise it has happened at least once in the history of the world. also they aren't always seamless.


cracked.com had one on explosions and what being around them really do to you (i'm talking about action movies now not sex.) you don't just walk from them looking cool.

I'm with the other poster. Hitting anybody with a handgun while running is almost impossible.

How about when people get beat up, and their face is all swollen and black eyes, and the next day, perfect face again.

How about in the old westerns, when a bartender just gives a customer a whole bottle of whiskey.

How about how fast people die from gunshots that arent in the head.

Good stuff.

I want to know where Hollywood buys their mattresses. You know the ones with the hole in them? The guy can lay on his side, spooning the girl and they never have that awkward "shite, I'm laying on my arm, now it's falling asleep, this is uncomfortable" thing. They just fall blissfully asleep wrapped together, with their arm in a hole or crevass or something.

Oh, and they wake up the next morning in the exact same position. Who does this in reality?

My wife and I will sometimes snuggle for about 10 minutes and then it's get off me, I'm hot, I'm uncomfortable.

When there are explosions, the fire dept and local cops don't show up.
