What silly things break immersion for you when watching or reading something?

When people don't say hello or goodbye on phones.

when people hold the phone up to their neck instead of their mouth (old phones, not cells) and phone numbers all starting with 555

Hard to describe, but I hate it when a scene I'm reading just ends with a someone saying a dramatic cliffhanger sentence (queue duffduffs). Then it picks up with the same characters different day and you *never get any payoff for the cliffhanger*. I keep feeling super cheated. IRL there's no magic zoom in to shocked face: cut to new scene - you have to somehow field responses, leave the room, etc. I get it in soap operas but get *so mad* when it's chaptered narrative. Freaking finish your scenes!

Not quite breaks immersion but definitely distracts me when they have kids in the fic but no details. Like what age they are, who the parents are, if they do anything and dont mention who is watching the kid while they are off doing stuff, etc.

Obvi not just any kids but I mean when they write in one or both characters being a parent/caregiver/guardian.

When the wrong type of language is used. If they're characters from any historical era before, like, the 1870s, they should not be using the words "dude" or "totes." Victorian ladies of class would not be referring to moon powers as if they were 70s flower children.

Anachronisms, like potatoes in mediaeval Europe. Of the latest one, Shakespeare's wife hawking with a Harris hawk. Did the filmmakers not realise that falconry nerds would be interested in the film, but pick up on an American SW hawk being used? It made me giggle, which I presume is not what they were going for.

phone anon here again. why did the characters in the 1980's version of Duck Tales all have 1920's "candlestick" phones?

Because Scrooge wouldn't shell out for new phones when the old ones worked just fine?

Anachronistic names. Unless they're so egregious that I know they weren't going for realism. I can watch Xena and accept a Gabrielle in Ancient Greece because it's Xena. But I can't watch a movie from 2000 set in the modern day with an adult woman named Madison without wanting to scream.

Canon inconsistencies!

I'll come up with a work around so I can keep going, but "having" to come up with that work around takes me out.
