Things I Learned from the Movies is an article from Funny Emails, a blog that reposts humorous emails so that people like me (who never receive funny emails…because my friends have no sense of humor) can enjoy them.  The article lists the very valuable life lessons that we learn from the movies. It  give insight to tips such as…

“One man shooting at 20 men has a better chance of killing them all than 20 men firing at one. “

How many times does Hollywood have to replay this scenario? We get the point. The hero of the film is supposed to be good at defending himself. But come on, the bad guys should be able to hit his target every now and then. Especially when it’s twenty against one. Another peice of advice that I thought I should mention is a bit less deadly, but just as important.

“Once applied, lipstick will never rub off – even while scuba diving. “

In the movies, women wake up with their makeup fully applied, they swim with their makeup fully applied, they even camp out in the woods with their makeup fully applied. When are we going to see these “realistic” characters without their makeup, waking up like a normal person? More importantly, where can I find this magic makeup that stays perfect even after hiking through the forest?

Without Hollywood giving us such amazing advice, how could we survive from day to day?
