Queer people being so flamboyant or unbearably awkward.

Yes. And when straight actors behave that way, to ensure we know. I don't have what people call "gay radar". I've been attracted to men, who I found out about later. It was a huge surprise to read about Rock Hudson.

I've done the first before but usually with close friends. I think most of what you see in terms of people always being snarky with the perfect comeback or maybe my brain is just too slow to process so quickly lol. I also think the whole love triangle thing is a bit over done, like how many times does that actually happen or maybe again, might just not be happening to me lol.

Agreed that perfect comebacks are obviously written in the script. More realistic is when the actor/character can't think of a good response and is struggling.

For me, it's 2 main things:

1. When people, especially guys, nod (without one word)in a way to communicate ( e.g., come here, go there, etc.)

2. Smoking cigarettes makes you "cool".

Love. I see it in movies yet I have no experience with it.

I have never witnessed a group of random strangers spontaniously burst into a song, and I hope I never do.

Gay men thinking boobs are gross. I've had many gay men compliment me on the girls.

People who suddenly know how to use a gun (and hit their target), without any training or experience.

I think I've never seen a gun being shot IRL. Took me awhile to realize, as I've seen it in so many movies and in a few TV shows.

When people are talking on the phone and at the end of the conversation they just hang up. No 'bye', 'ttyl', just hanging up.

Good point. It's as if they both know the conversation is over, and no one will be offended by not saying "bye".

People who are extremely arrogant and selfish, who then learn some kind of life lesson, and they start being nice to everybody. Although that's inspiring, I haven't seen it IRL.

It looks like I should have added to my posted question, "what human behavior" have you seen in movies or TV, but not IRL?

Dinosaurs walking throughout my life. I've never seen a car stand 20 stories above me.
