1. When people are coming out of the supermarket there are always long French baguettes sticking out of their grocery bags.

2. When a light is turned off, the room isn't in darkness, everything can still be seen perfectly clearly.

3. A car chase will regularly involve someone driving through a stack of boxes - often inexplicably placed in the middle of a street.

4. In nightclubs, despite the fact that there's music playing, people still manage to converse with each other either in their normal tone of voice, or just slightly louder. Rarely do they have to roar due to being drowned out by the music.
