@noelle
TFW you notice that almost nobody on TV says "goodbye" at the end of a phone call
@Jo I mean, that's literally why :)
@noelle They also don't have to wait much before the other person picks up the phone.
@jkb Yep, if there's more than one ring they're getting voice mail/an answering machine.
@jkb /unless/ the scene cuts to the person answering the phone.
@noelle Also very amusing:
- taxi fares paid in cash with a bill, no change back
- have you seen someone locking a car?
- same question for front doors
@noelle also nobody ever finishes a meal
They always leave when they're half way through it
@noelle I used to know a couple who never said "goodbye" to each other, they ended their conversations with "I love you" because if anything tragic happened to either one of them they didn't want "goodbye" to be the last word they said. I'm onboard with that.
@noelle The only acceptable exception... https://youtu.be/bPqRpar4PyE
@ThreeLetterMax I need to get around to watching that at some point.
@noelle air ducts are also unusually large and clean as well
@bunnyhero @noelle And they don't seem to notice all those people walking around with cameras, either.
@noelle all part of TVland magic, like waking up with perfect eyeliner
@noelle i know right? how annoyed would you be if your friends just HUNG UP ALL THE TIME, with no indication the conversation was done
you'd be all "Hello? He... hello? did the phone disconnect?" all the heckin' time!
@noelle That would get in the way of the plot! /s
