Things that never happen in real life...
This came in from a buddy on twitter and I have to admit, while things like this happen all the time in books/movies.. they dont happen to me!

Wonder what else we can add to this?

I don't get into the car, start driving, and then find someone in the back seat.

No woman I know ever got out of bed naked and wrapped the sheet around herself to go to the bathroom.

My cars have never taken fifteen seconds to start, for dramatic effect. They either start or they don't start.

I have never had 10 different life changing events happen in one day.

I have never eaten with a group of people with all of us sitting on only one side of the table.

I've moved this to the Lounge from General Discussions as it is unrelated to ebooks. Plus, it'll likely get a more lively audience here.

I don't take breakfast after brushing my teeth.

I don't take breakfast full dressed (i.e. suite & tie).

I have never seen a nurse who looks like a Miss Universe candidate.

As I never wear a suit & tie, neither do I. But I do breakfast fully dressed... (for work, that is).

I have never met someone who turned out to actually be a genie, a mermaid, a robot, a mannequin, an alien, an elf, a nymphomaniac, a ghost, or a visitor from the future (who are the most obvious, as they never understand simple phrases like "exact change").

And I tried hard to meet a nymphomaniac.

I've never been able to squeeze 8 shots out of a double-barreled shotgun.

I have yet to run full-bore away from someone who was only walking AND had them keep in close range the whole time.

To expand on that, I've never had any theme music. No drum roll after the punchline, no seductive music when the cute woman walks in, no angelic music, zilch.
