Identical twins switching places on a date.

This. My bf is an identical twin, and although not everyone can tell them apart, it is not difficult AT ALL when you know them even a little bit. His twin is completely repulsive to me. This would never, ever work.

While we're on the topic, every once in awhile there's a movie about high school in which the stud jocks are soccer players -- in AMERICA. That doesn't happen in American high schools. (These are always the movies where the completely stunning "nerd" removes her glasses and looks like a supermodel, but no one could see it because of the glasses.)

The cool kids at my school were soccer players.

My high school had a lot of stud/jock soccer players. My high school is in America.

Revision:
Soccer players can be cool at American high schools, but the coolest of the cool? The one guy that every girl wants to date and every guy wants to be? I don't think so.

you can run into the airport and right up to the boarding gate to tell the girl you love her right before the plane leaves (or maybe a minute too late).

-Never say goodbye when ending a phone conversation, just hang it up. 

-Dial tone starts as soon as the other end hangs up

-Everyone types 180 words per minute

-Cars can jump anything, at any distance, at any speed, and even through buildings and still function just fine

-Everyone can fight... well

-Basketall courts are all REALLY tiny

-If your girl dumps you and you just get your S together and do something amazing she ALWAYS takes you back.

-If your girl dumps you and is now dating someone better looking with more money you ALWAYS land a girl who is hotter, smarter, more fun, and filthy rich.

-Delivered pizza only comes in cheese or pepporoni, and it's greasy and nasty looking.

-White people have several really close black friends and vice versa.

-Women can do a shot of anything and rarely if ever make an awful face after.

-The dog comes back and lives

was at WRHS a few years ago.  Football team sucked big donkey balls to put it lightly.



I hate it when people  rack the slide on their gun multiple times as a check and no bullet is ejected.  Mostly because cops, .mil, etc always carry one in the chamber.

When there is a martial arts tournament, there are black belts just laying there on the table so Mr. Miyagi can steal one to give to Daniel-son.

The homecoming king in my class in high school was the best football player...he was busted one year later for selling meth out of his locker at a local manufacturing plant.  True story.

people start a conversation in an apartment, then pick it up later hailing a cab, and then pick it up again when getting out of the cab.
