big huge dudes or monsters or whatever can get stabbed, shot, or get the shit beat out of them, and they still keep fighting and running and jumping around, but i have a paper cut on the tip of my middle finger that's been ruining my life for the last 3 days.  i can't even put a bandaid on it.  what's the point of it all.

and in mission impossible and bond movies, the guys are getting into fights and jumping off trains while wearing nice, tailored suits.  when i wear my nice, tailored suit, i can't even lift my arms above my head and can barely get out of a car.

This is why God invented super glue.  And not that shit for skin.  Good old fashioned super glue.  And if it hurts- good.  That means it's working

In a foot chase, the guy following will stop, take a little bounce step and watch the guy run away, then start chasing him again.

Getting injured aside I always love how raging gun battles take place and the characters just continue to talk to each other through it and after it....because apparently hundreds of rounds getting discharged in rapid succession have no effect on hearing.

Arya on Game of Thrones got the shit beat out of her - repeatedly, right in the face - with a big stick and never even lost a tooth. Knocked backwards on stone floors countless times and never got as much as a concussion. Tough little gal.

And why is it always the guy doing the chasing that gets hit by a car while wantonly running across the street rather than the guy who's running away?

You need to ask your tailor for the "spy cut".

I was lazy and couldn't find anything worth channel switching for and wound up watching a little NCIS before being forced to change because the writing is soooooo bad. One of the characters tonight is blind and the detective is shocked to learn not only are blind people not completely helpless, they use their other senses more acutely. WTF is this, Dr Kildare in 1930something? Maybe I should have put this in the Things that make you Surly thread.

Why is it that when a foot chase is going on thru the streets it's always the chaser and not the chasee who gets hit and rolled up on the hood or windshield if some driver's car?

Yeah, weird double post, but not always true. My wife and I watch a bunch of Masterpiece Theater stuff and when Sir Reginald is chasing Lady Cecilia through the London fog you know one of them is about to get run over by a carriage but you are never sure which. We've got it down to a science now -- we see a scene like that and one of us hollers "carriage" and sure enough somebody is about to get ran the fuck over, as that dude in Luda's posse would say.
