Movie Clichés ... Phones

 

  • All phone numbers begin with 555.
  • People speaking on the phone never introduce themselves, and never ever say "good-bye" at the end of a conversation.
  • A ringing phone is usually picked up within 3 seconds.
  • Don't give the person on the other end of the phone time to say what they have to.
  • You also never have to look up a phone number, for anyone.
  • When a phone line is broken or someone hangs up unexpectedly, communication channels can be restored by frantically beating the cradle and saying "Hello? Hello?".
  • Always knock over the phone if it wakes you up. If you are expecting a call, make sure that you pull the covers up completely over your head so that knocking it over becomes easier. All houses have phones next to the bed.
  • There's a dial tone to be heard on A's phone immediately after B has hung up on his/her end.
