Whether intentionally or not, what do movies depict or present wrong a lot of the time?

    Yes, also hollywood portrays friends and family as cussing each other off and being really pissy with each other because “nothing mean that we say is lasting or counts as an insult because we already have emotional invulnerability to one another” - it is not like this AT ALL in real life. The people who can hurt you most are the ones closest to you, and i think that this is an example where real life has been imitating the art too much - people are much more emotionally abusive of one another than before, taking banter much too far.

      Man no kidding. Sitcoms! People just quipping at one another and taking it in stride, still being best buddies while mocking each other’s (usually one-note) shortcomings.

      Try that with 99% of people in real life and chances are it’ll just get you in deep doo-doo. People can be shockingly sensitive even over small things.
