This pisses me off so much

I hate that people never say "bye" on the phone.

Are you even allowed to end a phone convo without 20 byes and 30 ciaos?
- What Is ciaos ? Is It commonly used also in english or are you an Undercover italian ? 🤔
I say it sometimes. Is "aight" a good enough bye, what about "later"? Sometimes if it's a quick work call hardly anyone says bye.
- I say bye all the time. Every phone coversation.
- You have to tell them that you love them, everytime, or it's not even close to a proper bye. That's how you get an in with the HR folks really quickly so you know that they have your back. Work on easy mode, more or less. Like and subscribe for more social lifehacks.
- Nah, I don't think "aight" suffices, but "aight, later!" would work.
- Nah, same for the work calls
My stepfather does this irl and it always pisses me off, it's so rude!
One of the best parts from Spaced (Simon Pegg & Jessica Stevenson’s season show from the early 2000s).
- Oh, do they say bye in that show? ...and that's the best part?

For it is :

Preparing a huge breakfast and then they take a bit and they say I need to go
People drinking coffee or other drinks but you see clearly that they don't, why film that ?
Turing the wheel of the car like crazy when they on a straight road.
Wearing shoes inside the house even when they are about to go to sleep.

Eating and drinking on set is notoriously difficult to pull off. You see one take, but the crew has done about 17 takes of the same scene. Even with chefs on hand, they can’t bloat the actors up with food. Hence why in most dinner scenes, there’s a lot of cutting and mocked chewing but little goes in their mouth.
- It is not that difficult as other directors do it well. I see that in Japanese shows. It is OK if actors pretend to eat or drink when it is believable. In many episodes of Seinfeld we see the actors drinking coffee but we can clearly see that they weren't taking a sip.
Wearing shoes inside the house even when they are about to go to sleep.
As an asian that will be scolded if i ever do that, it weird me out and it does left an impression that westerner wear their shoes inside their house.
- A lot do, but also a lot don't. It's household by household.
  I'll also mention that you can probably expect people who grew up in no-shoe households to have strong feelings about it.
- I agree. Wearing shoes inside is really gross.
- I think it's a USA thing. We don't wear shoes inside the house in Europe.
Turing the wheel of the car like crazy when they on a straight road.
Just drive like Nicholas Cage drives.

Characters pretending to play video games on a controller

And the story is set in modern times but it sounds like an 80's arcade cabinet. Bwoop-bwoop pew pew!
Granted some people are so focused while gaming that they look like drowned salmon, but streamers have proven you can still be emotive and act whilst gaming lol.
- Bwoop-bwoop pew pew but they button mash like hack and slash
- I remember hearing Atari 2600 Pac-Man sounds on more than one occasion.
aggressively randomly clicking everything at once
- Well that's me with Messmer yesterday...

Also no helmets. Can't cover the face even when wildly impractical.

You probably meant motorcycle helmets My mind immediately went to Avengers Endgame. Everyone removing their helmet everytime they had anything to say... Was an awful direction
And when they have sci-fi helmets they have bright lights shining at their face. Surely that would be annoying.
I honestly don't get it. Recently read a manga and they ACTUALLY WORE THEIR BLOODY HELMETS DURING BATTLE! It was glorious! Occasional a stray bullet destroys the helmet sadly...but for a large chunk of it all, they actually fucking wear them! You could still tell who is who by body proportions, dialog and context so that wasn't really an issue. Also it's hella dramatic to take off the helmet after battle or when trying to negotiate with someone. It just makes soo much more sense!
- Feels like the issue is to not cover the actor's face because that's where the perceived value are. Drawn media doesn't have that issue, so they can do it in a creative way.

I'm a doctor so I know how dying people act. It's unrealistic that a dying person, like a couple of seconds before he/ she's completely gone, to talk much sense. They speak random stuff, disoriented, or in a complete panic state until they lost their consciousness and then die short after.

Tell my paetner the code to the bitcoin wallet is X1jH&t%@wuiPKlyw35ý...arrrghh gurgle gurlge
They did it right

They remove the rear view mirrors a lot too

Drivers also tend to keep attention on the road a lot less in the movies.

And I always anticipate an "unexpected" crash that almost never happens. Even in shows where it would never happen.
- That view of the driver, looking out from the front passenger side out the driver's window always makes me anxious for this reason. It's like Chekhov's gun. Why would they pick that angle unless the characters were about to get T-boned?
I dunno, have you seen the drivers out there? Pretty sure some of them are watching movies.
- They are. I’ve seen phones being on magnet mounts or held on the steering wheel with videos playing.

Every movement with a gun sounds like there's a loose screw in it (it always clicks). Also it usually has a clip of 300+ bullets.

Every mouse or keyboard input into a computer, every loading bar, every screen popping up makes screaching sounds. Except when having a failing DVD drive or broken hard disk I've never heard any computer making these sounds.

A secret tracking or listening device has a blinking red light and beeps.

Every car, always with airconditioning, drives with open windows because of the window reflections. Even during rain, extreme heat or highly contagious zombies trying to bite you through the open window.

Don't forget the loud sound when they turn on lights in a theater.
- I worked at a place that had lights like that, took forever for them to reach peak illumination
the gun sound they always use is the sound of a colt single action revolver which has a very distinct set of clicks.
the sound design of the real world is rather boring and often unappealing. Sound designers on movies are gods of those audiotary universes, they will paint it however they want
- I was behind two cars on the freeway, one in lane 1 and one in lane 3. They both decided to merge into the center lane at the same time. I remember the sound distinctly because it was so different than I expected. It sounded like two large, empty cardboard boxes hitting each other. No screeching tires or glass breaking sound (both windshields and side windows broke, but remained intact). It was very unexciting.
I like the bleep-boo sounds of the command prompt scrolling by on computers.
- That one actually has some basis in reality though. My terminal still dings at me, it's just that having it ding too much is annoying and out of fashion now. Does no one else remember PCs piezoelectric beeping, even before you upgraded to an actual soundcard?
I like it when they get real broad with it and picking up a single gun sounds more like clattering multiple guns together.

Headrests would have saved poor Marvin's life.

1964 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu had a bench seat and headrests didn't come until the 66 model. A 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu could have saved Marvin.
- Yeah, I noticed it didn't have a place to put headrests, so it was more of a "if this car had been designed with headrests" sorta thing.

Mid twenties teenagers with 30 year old parents.

That's not an unfair portrayal in the southern US.

When the character that's "driving" keeps moving the wheel back and forth just a tiny bit at a time.

When two characters look at something off-camera in the distance and stare at different points in space (why didn't the directory catch that?!).

I mean tiny bit is somewhat normal to correct for road camber or rutting...but those doing it back and forth like they are in a 70s pickup truck with fully worn out steering rack and bushings is pretty lame
When the character that’s “driving” keeps moving the wheel back and forth just a tiny bit at a time.
He's trying to keep the "hands on the wheel" warning from going off.

Most of the time when someone talks on a cell phone the screen stays on. Like wtf is the purpose of that?

Whelp. I'm never gonna ~~under~~ Unsee this.

Getting over it is overrated anyways.

Constant gear changes for no speed, acceleration or grade change of road

Head restraint.

pedantic people everywhere

TIL
Double TIL, 1921 origin in the home of the sideshow, how ironic. Oakland California.
also called headrests

No one locks their car door after parking. Nor do they roll up their windows.

Also, they find parking right away in an obviously busy area .

No one locks the door to their house either when leaving.

Maybe every single person involved in the making of the movies grew up in a small town /s

All software is some ultra developed cyber warfare level shit
