Things we learn from the movies

  • All beds have special L-shaped top sheets that reach up to armpit level on a woman but only waist level on the man lying beside her.
  • A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating but will wince when a woman tries to clean his wounds.
  • A single match will be sufficient to light up a room the size of a football stadium.
  • Medieval peasants had perfect teeth.
  • One man shooting at 20 men has a better chance of killing them all than 20 men firing at one.
  • It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts - your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessor.
  • When they are alone, all foreigners prefer to speak English to each other.
  • All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know exactly when they're going to go off.
  • It is always possible to park directly outside the building you are visiting.
  • If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you bump into will know all the steps.
