38 things that happen in movies and just movies?

1. It is always possible to find a parking spot directly outside or opposite the building you are visiting.

2. When paying for a taxi, don`t look at your wallet as you take out a note. Just grab one out at random and hand it over. It will always be the exact fare.

3. Television news bulletins usually contain a story that affects you personally at the precise moment it`s aired.

4. Creepy music (or satanic chanting) coming from a graveyard should always be closely investigated.

5. Any lock can be picked with a credit card or paperclip in seconds. UNLESS it`s the door to a burning building with a child inside.

6. If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you bump into will know all the steps.

7. All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red digital displays so you know exactly when they are going to explode.

Update:

8. Should you wish to pass yourself off as a German officer, it will not be necessary to learn to speak German. Simply speaking English with a German accent will do. Similarly, when they are alone, all German soldiers prefer to speak English to each other.

9. Once applied, lipstick will never rub off. Even while scuba diving.

10. The Eiffel Tower can be seen from any window of any building in Paris.

11. Any police officer about to retire from the force will more often than not die on their last day (especially if their family have planned a party). (Caveat: Detectives can only solve a case after they have been suspended from duty).

12. Getaway cars never start first go. But all cop cars do. (They will also slide to a dramatic stop in the midst of a crime scene).

13. If staying in a haunted house, women should investigate any strange noises wearing their most revealing underwear.

Update 2:

14. On a police stake-out, the action will only ever take place when food is being consumed and scalding hot coffees are perched precariously on the dashboard...

15. All grocery shopping involves the purchase of French loaves which will be placed in open brown paper bags (Caveat: when said bags break, only fruit will spill out).

16. Cars never need fuel (unless they`re involved in a pursuit).

17. If you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts, your opponents will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around you in a threatening manner until you have defeated their predecessor.

18. If a microphone is turned on it will immediately feedback.

19. Guns are like disposable razors. If you run out of bullets, just throw the gun away. you will always find another one.

20. All single women have a cat.

21. Cars will explode instantly when struck by a single bullet.

Update 3:

22. No matter how savagely a spaceship is attacked, its internal gravity system is never damaged.

23. If being chased through a city you can usually take cover in a passing St Patrick`s Day parade - at any time of the year.

24. The ventilation system of any building is the perfect hiding place. Nobody will ever think of looking for you in there and you can travel to any other part of the building undetected.

25. You will survive any battle in any war UNLESS you show someone a picture of your sweetheart back home.

26. Prostitutes always look like Julia Roberts or Jamie Lee Curtis. They have expensive clothes and nice apartments but no pimps. They are friendly with the shopkeepers in their neighbourhood who don`t mind at all what the girl does for a living.

27. A single match is usually sufficient to light up a room the size of a football stadium.

Update 4:

28. It is not necessary to say "Hello" or "Goodbye" when beginning a telephone conversation. A disconnected call can always be restored by frantically beating the cradle and saying "Hello? Hello?" repeatedly.

29. One man shooting at 20 men has a better chance of killing them all than 20 men firing at once (it`s called Sylvester Stallone`s Law aka Rambo`s Law).

30. When you turn out the light to go to bed, everything in you room will still be visible, just slightly bluish.

31. Plain or even ugly girls can become movie star pretty simply by removing their glasses and rearranging their hair.

32. Rather than wasting bullets, megalomaniacs prefer to kill their enemies with complicated devices incorporating fuses, pulleys, deadly gases, lasers and man-eating sharks.

33. All beds have special L-shaped sheets that reach to armpit level on a woman but only up to the waist of the man lying beside her.

Update 5:

34. Anyone can land a 747 as long as there is someone in the control tower to talk you down.

35. During all police investigations it will be necessary to visit a strip club at least once.

36. You can always find a chainsaw when you need one.

37. Most musical instruments (especially wind instruments and accordions) can be played without moving your fingers.

38. Trucks use their horns at random (no hang on, that happens in real life too!).

The crowd was shocked!

He followed up by saying, "That woman was my mother!"

The crowd burst into laughter and he gave his speech, which was well received.

About a week later, one of the top managers who had the training decided to use that joke at his house. He tried to rehearse the joke in his head. It was a bit foggy to him.

He said loudly, "The greatest years of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who was not my wife!"

Naturally, his wife was shell shocked, murmuring.

After standing there for almost 10 seconds trying to recall the second half of the joke, the manager finally blurted out "... and I can`t remember who she was !"

Moral of the story: Don`t copy if you can`t paste.

go home and with the aid of a dictionary, wrote a

letter of proposal to her.

this is what he wrote ......

my darling

most worthy of your estimation, after a long

consideration and much meditation, i have a strong

inclination to become your relation.

as to my educational qualification, it is no

exaggeration or fabrication, that i have passed my

matriculation, no doubt without any hesitation and

very little concentrated preparation. what you say

to the solemnization of our marriage celebration

according to the population of the present generation.

on your approbation of this application,

i shall make preparation to improve my situation,

and if such obligation is worthy of consideration

and commiseration, it will be an augmentation of the

joy and exultation of our joint dissimulation.

Update 14:

thanking you in anticipation and with devotion.

i remain,a victim of your fascination

The Girl replies

dear mr. victim of my fascination,

congaratulations for your lengthy narration,

of course, full of affection, aimed at an affliction

for a combination, which on examination, i find it a

fine presentation of your co-operation, but your

inclination to become my relation should embrace

more qualification so that you may reach high position.

you have passed the matriculation examination with

little concentration and preparartion. what about my

graduation after much concentration and botheration?

so improve your situation in education and make an

application by acquisition of post graduation,

the minimum qualification for the consideration of

our marriage celebration. after your education,

attend the convocation and before taking your photo

for circulation, undergo beautification.

Update 15:

further, strict observation of the following

conditions is the regulation for determination of

our relation:

1. consultation with my parents before approaching

for any connection.

2. communication of your confirmation that you are

not a victim of "any other" fascination, and

3. procreation must not be your recreation.

in anticipation of solid action of continuation of

proper conversation,

unaffected by your affection.

Update 16:

Man`s wife asks him to go to the store to buy some

cigarettes. So he walks down to the store only to

find it closed. So he goes into a nearby bar to use

the vending machine.

At the bar he sees a beautiful woman and starts

talking to her. They have a couple of beers and one

thing leads to another and they end up in her

apartment.

After they`ve had their fun, he realizes its 3AM

and says, "Oh no, its so late,

my wife`s going to kill me.

Have you got any talcum powder?" She gives him some

talcum powder, which he proceeds to rub on his hands

and then he goes home.

His wife is waiting for him in the doorway and she

is pretty pissed. "Where the hell have you been?!?!"

"Well, honey, its like this.

I went to the store like you asked, but they

were closed. So I went to the bar to use the

vending machine. I saw this great looking chick

there and we had a few drinks and one thing led to

another and I ended up in bed with her."

Update 17:

"Oh yeah? Let me see your hands!"

"You God damn liar!!! You went bowling again!"

LET THE STARS GET COMING GUYS.

Update 18:

Dave works hard at the plant, puts in a lot of overtime,

and then spends most evenings bowling, playing

basketball or working out at the gym. His wife, Mary,

thinks he is pushing himself too hard, so,

for his birthday, she takes him to a local strip club.

The doorman at the club greets them and says,

"Hey, Dave, how ya doing?"

Mary is puzzled and asks if he`s been to this

club before.

"Oh no," says Dave. "He works out at the gym with me."

When they are seated, a waitress asks Dave if he`d

like his usual Budweiser.

Mary is now becoming uncomfortable and says,

"You must come here a lot for that woman to know you

drink Budweiser."

"No, honey, she`s in the Ladies Bowling League.

We share lanes with them."

A stripper comes over to their table and throws her

arms around Dave. "Hi Davey," she says,

"Want your usual table dance?"

Mary, now furious, grabs her purse and storms out

of the club.

Update 19:

Dave follows and spots his wife getting into a cab.

Before Mary can slam the door, Dave jumps in beside her.

Right away she starts screaming at him.

The cabby turns his head and says,

"Looks like you picked up a real ***** tonight, Dave."

    How about when the girl is running away from the stalker/killer, she always trips on nothing and falls?

    all were great thanks.

    If you are still struggling to increase you are straight and you're looking to get both hands over the edge, put Vert Shock to the check, a program you will find it here https://tr.im/1XqIt  and provide it a try, you will end up amazed of how fast you may become a creature hopper if you train the proper way.

    This system won't allow you to leap a large number of situations because Vert Shock was produced and used by true elite stage basketball players.

    In regards down to it, in the event that you actually want to leap larger, you simply found the very best process in the world to do so. Some other way could simply be considered a waste of time.
