Too often in movies, television, and in books I see something that makes me think "that couldn't happen," or "yeah, right," or even "that's impossible." After all, I am the "Fact Guy" here.
We all know animals can't talk, yet there are stories that have talking animals. There's also no such thing as ghosts, vampires, magic, or werewolves, yet there are stories that have it. And often in television I see something that defies all explaination and could never happen. For example, in one episode of "The Red Green Show", Bill is working with a woodchipper, but then he gets pulled in and spit out. His clothes are shredded but he's not even hurt! That could never happen in real life! Trust me, I've seen a man get shredded in a wood chipper in "1000 Ways To Die".
I'm the kind of guy who can't suspend disbelief? Is this normal?
