A while ago some friends and I were talking about movie cliches with friends.

Like isn't it funny that women always cover their boobs when they sit up in bed next to their lover / husband?

Here's an exhaustive list of others:

When a girl is in a house all by herself in a horror movie, it is always raining or thunder and lightning outside.

In all junior highs, the popular girls have big boobs, while the geeky girls are flat-chested.

In movies when a character is brushing his/her teeth, they never get toothpaste on their mouth or rinse out their toothbrush when through cleaning their teeth.

Anybody eating chinese food always eats it out of the box with chopsticks.

If you try to get your ex partner back by going out with someone else in order to make your ex jealous, you will succeed but by the time you have achieved what you set out to do you will have fallen for the other person.

A good guy will never, ever, shoot a bad guy in the kneecap, even if it would be incredibly helpful to him.

In any musical, no matter how tough the gang and/or bad guy, they/he can always belt out a heartfelt melody in a deep and lilting baritone voice.

A woman´s shoes always make high heel clacking sounds, regardless which shoe type she wears. She can even wear sneakers...

Whenever at a bar or dance with loud music cranked up on high, the couple the audience sees talking have perfectly audible voices and can talk as though there is no music.

In most 80's action flicks bussiness men and security guards look like Huey Lewis or Bruce Springsteen.

The villain will always have thousands of henchmen working for him or a small army that follows him.

There is always a full moon when people goto bed. When the lights are turned off, a delayed light turns on, causing a blue cast in the room in which they could read by.

If you are going to be killed it has to be at a time when you are alone and it has to be at night and raining.

If you see something, then turn away, it wont be there the next time you look.

The antidote to any horrible, out-of-control virus can always be attained somewhere in the neighborhood of the other side of the world often from an exotic plant. Somehow these plants can always be reproduced to cure the epidemic.

It is impossible for two colleages of the opposite sex to have a completely proffessional relationship.

If you decide to launch into song there will always be backing music available.

If the movie is set in America any Australians will talk with a British accent.

Women of action can run, do karate, kickbox, climb ladders and perform highly acrobatic movements while wearing six inch heals and either a miniskirt or a tight leather cat suit.

If a person has an occupation that involves spending most of their working hours at weddings, their love life will be a disaster or non-existent.

If the bad guy is some kind of well-dressed senior chief of a big company, he´s most likely a brutal guy who likes to kick the hero into the face or some other vital parts of the body.

If you´re getting kicked into the face, there´s no real problem with that. Regardless how hard you´ve been kicked, you will stay unconcious for the maximum of five minutes. Then, after saying "Ouch!", you´ll be able to get on your feet again and rescue the world. You don´t have broken cheek bones or jaw fractures, of course. And there´s not even the slightest hematoma to be seen.

Every city - despite of its size - has at least one old lady who drives herbelongings in some old baby buggy or shopping cart around. If the lady is a guy he always uses a shopping cart and never a baby buggy.
