For example
I’ve heard many references about the YMCA as a place you sleep over at when people need a place to stay.
I used to go to the ymca a lot and I couldn’t imagine them letting me sleep there and staying there for a couple days.

If I just wandered into a neighbors house like they do in many sitcoms without knocking and waiting at the door I'd get shot.
Even with the neighbors that are my good friends. You just don't walk your ass into any house unless it's yours.

Entering their friend's house/apartment without knocking or ringing
Not saying "Bye" before hanging up the phone
Never going to the bathroom

Not eating fortune cookies. We see them get opened but nobody actually eats the damn things after reading the fortune.

The people that order 25 bucks worth of food at a local diner, eat two bites then leave. 90% of TV handles food like they have never eaten before. The other 10% you can tell the actors are just chowing down and having a good time.

I used to go to the ymca a lot and I couldn’t imagine them letting me sleep there and staying there for a couple days. Just to directly address your wonder, not every YMCA has its housing units directly connected to the gyms in question. Prior to it being demolished, the Y I used to go to had a halfway house setup on the other side of the building (opposite the regular gym goers) that homeless and recently released men would be staying as they try to get back on their feet. More common nowadays, they've got off-site housing that is represented by the respective Y community network of the area. Same is done for their various 'Y Camps' for kids during the summer, as well as any other extras the program may offer in your area. Source: went to a gym that had a halfway house that has since been demolished in favor of a new building, ex-gf worked for the social side of the Y, and personally had my kid attend the Y Camps for a few years.

When people that are basically strangers set up a date but there’s never an exchange of information. For example, the guy says “Great! I’ll pick you up at eight!” Yet she never gave him her address. Has he been stalking her this whole time and now she’s happy because he must really like her since he already knows where she lives? Makes zero sense.

Yeah and some YMCA's still do provide guest housing at their facilities along with their extracurricular programs like swimming. There are still a few NYC YMCA's that still do both. In Bret's book, he mentions that his brother, might be Smith or Bruce, told him if he couldn't find a hotel to stay the night, just find a YMCA. The infamous Rampaging Hulk rape story took place in a YMCA.

Sex in elevators. Or meetings in NCIS. I don't get the praticalities. How do you keep the door shut? If you use any emergency options you have alarms and building staff to deal with. There's often cameras too.
So many people having sex without using or discussing contraception is weird too. Especially as a one night stand on TV is highly likely to end in pregancy.

Why do so many white people fumble around in the kitchen in informercials?
Tupperware lids, not properly closing their blenders, making spills, etc...they can't keep their shit together!

Somehow I don't think the pizza guy's manager is gonna think that was an acceptable form of payment regardless of how little cash that woman had.

When people are getting ready for work. Guys who look like they just shaved start putting on shaving cream. There's nothing on your face to shave off.
The other one is, they get dressed, brush their teeth, then go downstairs and eat breakfast. Why aren't you brushing your teeth after you eat?

If I just wandered into a neighbors house like they do in many sitcoms without knocking and waiting at the door I'd get shot. Even with the neighbors that are my good friends. You just don't walk your ass into any house unless it's yours. I used to live in an apartment building that was basically a 90’s sitcom. Wandering into apartments without knocking, everyone’s fridge is fair game, people could come and go as they pleased, the whole 9 yards. It was a lot to get used to, and really weird to think about now considering I’ve become very private and hermit like since then. Now, there’s a very select few people I even let come in to my house. And only about 3 people who have permission to show up unannounced.
