Single women always watch movies cross legged, wearing nothing but a man's shirt, and eating ice cream straight out the tub (usually Julia Roberts?)

Women always wear dungarees when painting their flat and smear paint on their face by accident. They always seem to look like they are having loads of fun and the husband smiles at her from the doorway in approval.

Whenever the navigator says during a car journey, "Where are we?" and looks puzzled at their map, it's the law that they end up down some lonely dirt track and ask the local psycho for directions.

Any man who complains about being single will meet a girl and start a relationship within 5 miniutes of saying it.
Everyone in England lives in central London. Usually within sight of Big Ben. Even those with no income whatsoever.
This happens more in older movies. At the end of the film the wife of the hero suddenly announces that she's pregnant. The hero is totally surprised as if this was some sort of spontaneous event.

American girls in distress can instantly Kick box to stun the baddy without any previous instruction.
A crashing car must flip at least 5 times before landing on it's roof. The driver must have a slight scratch on his or her forehead.
You in a forrest, it's 1AM, thankfully there is enough moon light so be able to see my compas/find my gun/pitch my tent but dark enough to hide from the baddy/ghost/Others!
