I hate that people never say “bye” on the phone.
I say it sometimes. Is “aight” a good enough bye, what about “later”? Sometimes if it’s a quick work call hardly anyone says bye.
I say bye all the time. Every phone coversation.
You have to tell them that you love them, everytime, or it’s not even close to a proper bye. That’s how you get an in with the HR folks really quickly so you know that they have your back. Work on easy mode, more or less. Like and subscribe for more social lifehacks.
Nah, same for the work calls
Nah, I don’t think “aight” suffices, but “aight, later!” would work.

Also no helmets. Can’t cover the face even when wildly impractical.
You probably meant motorcycle helmets My mind immediately went to Avengers Endgame. Everyone removing their helmet everytime they had anything to say… Was an awful direction
I honestly don’t get it. Recently read a manga and they ACTUALLY WORE THEIR BLOODY HELMETS DURING BATTLE! It was glorious! Occasional a stray bullet destroys the helmet sadly…but for a large chunk of it all, they actually fucking wear them! You could still tell who is who by body proportions, dialog and context so that wasn’t really an issue. Also it’s hella dramatic to take off the helmet after battle or when trying to negotiate with someone. It just makes soo much more sense!
I’m a doctor so I know how dying people act. It’s unrealistic that a dying person, like a couple of seconds before he/ she’s completely gone, to talk much sense. They speak random stuff, disoriented, or in a complete panic state until they lost their consciousness and then die short after.
They remove the rear view mirrors a lot too
Headrests would have saved poor Marvin’s life.
1964 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu had a bench seat and headrests didn’t come until the 66 model. A 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu could have saved Marvin.
Yeah, I noticed it didn’t have a place to put headrests, so it was more of a “if this car had been designed with headrests” sorta thing.
Every movement with a gun sounds like there’s a loose screw in it (it always clicks). Also it usually has a clip of 300+ bullets.
Every mouse or keyboard input into a computer, every loading bar, every screen popping up makes screaching sounds. Except when having a failing DVD drive or broken hard disk I’ve never heard any computer making these sounds.
A secret tracking or listening device has a blinking red light and beeps.
Every car, always with airconditioning, drives with open windows because of the window reflections. Even during rain, extreme heat or highly contagious zombies trying to bite you through the open window.
the sound design of the real world is rather boring and often unappealing. Sound designers on movies are gods of those audiotary universes, they will paint it however they want
I was behind two cars on the freeway, one in lane 1 and one in lane 3. They both decided to merge into the center lane at the same time. I remember the sound distinctly because it was so different than I expected. It sounded like two large, empty cardboard boxes hitting each other. No screeching tires or glass breaking sound (both windshields and side windows broke, but remained intact). It was very unexciting.
yea precisely. Sound design is less about how it really sounds, but more about how you think it should sound + some flair to make it a show.
Fun fact! sometimes in movies when there’s a big fire sound designers will put animal roars into the fire sounds to add an extra layer of fear you don’t even realise your body is going to react to
the gun sound they always use is the sound of a colt single action revolver which has a very distinct set of clicks.
I like the bleep-boo sounds of the command prompt scrolling by on computers.
That one actually has some basis in reality though. My terminal still dings at me, it’s just that having it ding too much is annoying and out of fashion now. Does no one else remember PCs piezoelectric beeping, even before you upgraded to an actual soundcard?
I actually used to open them up and snip the wires, you don’t get to hear it POST but that never really became an issue.
Drivers also tend to keep attention on the road a lot less in the movies.
I dunno, have you seen the drivers out there? Pretty sure some of them are watching movies.
They are. I’ve seen phones being on magnet mounts or held on the steering wheel with videos playing.
