I seem to be watching a lot of movies lately where unseen people fall in love with people they are creepily stalking. Maybe the main character is an invisible ghost, or a private detective, or has access to a window that can see through time. Regardless of the logistics of the situation, the watcher always falls in love with the kindness and innocence of the person (usually a hot girl who takes a lot of showers) they are observing.

Never, not once, in any of these films does the person being watched ever pick their nose, belch, bite their toenails, masturbate, or even scratch themselves inappropriately.

I call such bullshit. I mean, I know the movies like to exaggerate things, but this is a bit ridiculous. Because what do people really do when they are alone? Things they can't do in front of anybody else.

Once, just once, I want to see a movie where a man is gazing at a sleeping girl who doesn't know he's watching, and as he falls ever more in love with the peace and innocence of her angelic expression, she lets out a tremendous fart.

It would be really honest.
