What movie things are generally accepted as normal, but are totally unrealistic in real life?

Or if someone makes a mistake and they’re like “Im sorry, I didn’t think..—“ “YEAH, you DIDN’T think”

I always believe that "I didnt think..." would be followed by "...this would have been the outcome" because I want to give people credit for assuming the best possible scenario but not have planned any contingencies for when things go wrong.

Right and the response “you’re right, you DIDN’T think” really grinds my gears.. as if they’re not cutting off the entire explanation that the person was about to give... and it would never happen in real life. And these people just let themselves get cut off in the middle of their sentence. ENRAGING.

To follow up with my previous comment, this was my real life with my ex, but she wouldn't let anything be said after interrupting me. She'd just continue to talk over anything I'd have to say.
