Things you learned from movies.

I know, I saw that. I was just giving an example of one of the exceptions.

That’s not an eagle call, it’s a red tail hawk.

Sounds like a good one. I’ll have to check it out sometime.

I saw Tarantino’s Django last winter, and I understood it was a take on Spaghetti Westerns, but the Franco Nero connection went completely over my head! D’oh! :smack:

If you’re looking for a murder suspect, a strip club is a pretty good place to start.

That’s…actually very true.

Phil!

Phil-Lip!

Hey Philip, gimme a kiss baby! Hey!

A banana in the tailpipe can disarm a car.

Ah, thanks, it was surprisingly hard to find out what the bird is, especially as it’s generally… well… invisible.

I’m from a non-desert area, so we don’t get the visible or invisible kind here.

If The Hero says he’ll kill you last, he’s lying.

And, none of them ramble on…if they are saying something, it is sage advice, that is relevant.

Also, all helicopters make the chirp-chirp-chirp sound when powering down…which, as I understand it, is only produced by the rubber drive belts. Of a Bell 47G.

Krakatoa is east of Java.

You know it’s not accurate though? Ezekiel 25:17 doesn’t say exactly like that.

The only way to be sure is to nuke it from orbit.

You can build a robotic hand from a medieval armored gauntlet.

Remember to say, “Klaatu, barada, nikto” exactly. (A two-fer.)

If you show up at the office/jobsite/crime scene with a hangover, the first person to see you will say “You look like shit”.

It is trivially easy for mobsters, or sometimes even well-connected street gangs, to obtain all the weapons they want, including full-auto assault rifles and submachine guns, grenade launchers and RPGs.

And if you do don a kevlar vest you always wear it under your shirt so your partner/ love interest doesn’t know you have one on and revenge-kills the bad guy in a moment of grief and rage because they think that you are dead. Oh, and it’s the special kind of armored vest that thin enough to be worn under clothing undetectably and not the usual kind that is really bulky because it has 10 layers of padding, ceramic strike plates and weighs 30+ pounds.

Well, this has happened to me before.

Of course, you will remember this and anything else you were told once to memorize (telephone numbers, addresses, safe combinations, etc.) with complete accuracy long after the fact and under circumstances where anybody else would be shitting their pants.

You can travel anywhere in the world without luggage, a purse, a passport or money.
