👍 even though I think it was transcribed...
most of them are true, though they mostly refer to action movies which are full of clichés anyway...
"If Germans are shooting at you, hide in a river—or even a bathtub; German bullets can't penetrate water."
No clue where this came from? 😕
"If staying in a haunted house, women should investigate every weird noise in their minimal clothing."
I don't get this part at all 😕
"If you're blonde and beautiful, it's possible to become a world-class nuclear physics expert by age 22."
I guess this means everyone is smart and hot....😕
not quite, especially with guys....
"If you find yourself caught in a situation that can be quickly clarified with a simple explanation, for God's sake, keep your mouth shut!"
😕
