We're told to avoid cliche, but just what really is a cliche? Some people might say that a plumber who likes beer and football is a cliche. But it really isn't, it's real. The plumber who likes merlot and balley is also real, just less common.
You run into a problem with cliche when it is gets to be unreal, when people are only like that in fiction. People then stop being able to relate to the characters.
