Some of the most egregious character tropes in film -- the professor who underlines a word on real wife sex videosthe board to start class, the writer who never pitches anything but is somehow always working -- have found their way into a meme.
On Tuesday, Rory Turnbull, an assistant professor of linguistics at the University of Hawaii in Manoa tweeted about a film trope he'd noticed -- one that you have also noticed, probably, in every single movie with a classroom scene. "Hello, I'm a professor in a movie, I only reach the point of my lecture right as class is ending," he wrote. "Then I yell at students about the reading / homework as they leave."

Sound familiar?
After Turnbull's tweet, dozens of people shared other character types that aren't necessarily lazy,per se -- they just allow for shocking narrative expedience and probably wouldn't fly IRL.
Okay, fine, some of them are very lazy.
