Or bullets not going through wind shields.
Or when bullets do shatter a windshield but do not continue through and kill the driver and passengers.[/quote]
Well… the bullets trajectory often gets thrown off pretty badly by bullets. A guy won’t really get shot by a bullet that’s aimed through a windshield if the shooter is aiming dead on… the shooter has to aim at the dashboard and hopefully the bullet will hit the driver.
Just a little ballistics shit that I recently read up on. This one is not so farfetched.[/quote]
I saw a show where they ran this experiment. It was pretty cool.
If the person is shooting straight at the drivers sternum but the windshield is at an angle(45 degree) the bullet will change trajectory enough that it will most likely miss the driver. If however the shooter is elevated to fire from a location where his bullet travels perpendicular to the windshield the bullet will most likely hit the target.
Another thing, relating to my above post - bullets don’t always go through car doors.
9mm will because they have the velocity, but apparently heavier calibers, like a .357, won’t always because they’re moving more slowly, and sometimes “bounce off” of the door.
Also, remember that criminals having awful aim isn’t just a movie technique… the dudes really have awful aim.

Can’t remember the last time I saw a four star general that wasn’t interested in nuking everything or an Omaha Beach scenario where casualties where just a means to an end. [/quote]
So right! I knew an old retired war veteran general (in fact we affectionately called him General) that was probably one of the most soft-spoken gentlemen I ever knew. No matter what was going on in the world, he never ranted on about what the US should or shouldn’t be doing. Always conducted himself with reverence and restraint.

That’s because 99% of generals get promoted from combat arms positions and have actually shot someone and been shot at.
I have a VERY hot temper, but my predisposition to violence dropped 99% from having been in combat.[/quote]
Yep.
I also remember one of my dad’s friends was a toublemaker, loose-cannon type of young dude, but vietnam calmed him down when he came home. Nicest guy ever after that and would go out of his way to be nice to everyone at the motorcycle shop he owned.
When they need to go really fast and divert extra power to the warp engines and the fucking ceiling lights dim.
Look, we all have lights on our homes and I can’t believe that the Enterprise’s lights are so powerful that you can dim them in order to help the ship go another 400 TIMES THE MOTHERFUCKING SPEED OF LIGHT!!!

That’s because they haven’t got them energy efficient light bulbs fitted.
When people are about to reveal their important secret to someone, and someone comes in and interrupts them, and they still won’t say it!
Stereotypes: Apparently Black people only say “Aw snap dog shit muthafucka damn that’s FLYYY”
Asians barely speak english and always are like “Oh HERRO SHITTY WOK TAKE ORDA PREEZE” etc…

I just hate the inequality between the good guys and the bad guys. 5 bad guys get killed in one scene, but if a good guys life is on the line the bad guy needs to make a longass speech about it.
And then the bad guys will clearly have an advantage of some sort, for example a A dragon is attacking a human. The dragon will shoot out fire from its mouth, killing half a village, but when the dragon tries to kill the main character it will try to bite it or grab it, forgetting that it has a much easier way of getting the job done.

One I thought of yesterday:
If the bad guy is driving during a high speed chase/shootout, the thug in the passenger seat always gets shot, and to show how callous he is EVEN TO HIS OWN HENCHMEN, the bad guy will open the passenger door and kick out the passenger at high speed.
It’s not like the car is going to go any faster without the passenger, and the dying passeneger would even offer a handy bullet shield against anyone trying to shoot at him from the passenger side of the car…so WHYYYY?![/quote]
I hate scenes where a person leaves the front door open when they’re in a hurry, or they leave the fridge door open after getting food out.
I hate it when we see an extensive scene of something a dude has just experienced, but when questioned or accused about why he’s late, or a mess or whatever, he doesn’t verbally defend himself and just explain what we saw. Instead, he suffers the consequences. Every time I see a scene like that (TV show or movie), I literally yell at the screen, “Stick up for yourself, man! Tell them what just happened!”
