For example, in "Die Hard 4", it bothered the heck out of me that the 100 pound Asian girl was kicking Bruce Wills' ass. The man has been through hell for 3 movies, and you mean to tell my some tiny little girl won't die and can kick his ass. PLEASE. Because of that scene I could not focus on the movie, and went to sleep Which reminds me, I hate when the character should have died like 20 times already and they keep coming back to life. So annoying. What's even more annoying is when, the person who kills them, thinks they are dead. Drops the weapon and walks away. HELLO, if someone is trying to kill me, and I kill them, i am chopping off legs and heads, just to make damn sure

For instance, in the TV show Wildfire, the colt Flame was a chestnut with a blaze on his face when he was a baby, and then suddenly as a 2 year old we're supposed to believe he is now a bay with a small star. Yeah right!

I wonder how he can put some random person's foot in his mouth. I love action movies but I HATE collateral damage... Whenever I make up a story that has a hostage situation, or lost situation, or even anything where a woman suddenly has to change into a skimpy outfit or gets part of her pants ripped, I always include a (rather superfluous) dialogue about how she had laser hair removal. I think about collateral damage too! I hate seeing that because I always think that if my car got smashed, I would be so freaking pissed. My sister and I watched the Meg Ryan/Matthew Broderick movie Addicted to Love, and we were talking about Kelly Preston's armpits and how she must have gotten electrolysis. So you are not alone there either. I suddenly feel like I've found kindred spirits. I've been alone in hating unnecessary messes in movies for a long time.

With TV shows I get annoyed when the writers cant keep their characters straight. Like on Friends when Ross supposedly only slept with Carol and then like 7 seasons later talked about in college sleeping with their maid.

The last Matrix movie drove me nuts because they basically destroyed hundreds of cars and a highway! I was wondering who would pay for all that. How do you explain that shit to your insurance company?? And then I always think of the people who had to have died.

Or why don't girls ever seem to have their periods, they never stay home with cramps or anything. I also think about the car crashes and the people who die too. It just seems weird how people can get over the fact that they have just seen a loved one die right in front of their faces but yet they stop crying and start running away from the killer. Im sorry but if I was to see someone I loved or even anyone I probably would be frozen not being able to move & would be killed right there too, as dumb as that sounds. I just couldn't get over it that quickly.

AND how women have a different purse for every single outfit. I always loved on Roseanne how they repeated clothes and she always wore the same purse and coat.

One thing that I didn't see mentioned yet (and that bothers me) is when they order a pizza (or any type of food) and they'll eat like literally one bite and put it down and not even look at it again. It's so unrealistic. I always notice it too.

I hate how the person that we are listening to basically repeats everything that the person on the other side said. "Oh you're going to the country, huh?" "You're going to ride the horses?" "Billy got himself a dog?" "Sure, I'll go to the movies with you." That's not how that side of the conversation would go. It'd be like: "Oh really?" "oh." "really?" "okay/sure." The ABSOLUTE WORST example of this I've ever seen is Bob Newhart. In either Bob Newhart or Newhart, any of his shows. Freakin' drove me nuts!!!

Or if they meet someone out that they don't know and they plan a date.. they'll just be like "Okay, I'll pick you up at 7", and they're like "sounds great"... Like do they just know where they live already or what.. so stupid!

They'll scrape like, a morsel off the edge of the massive slice of chocolate cake and talk with it on their fork. I always watch like a hawk to see if anyone will actually eat like a normal person would.
