Every movement with a gun sounds like there's a loose screw in it (it always clicks). Also it usually has a clip of 300+ bullets.

Every mouse or keyboard input into a computer, every loading bar, every screen popping up makes screaching sounds. Except when having a failing DVD drive or broken hard disk I've never heard any computer making these sounds.

A secret tracking or listening device has a blinking red light and beeps.

Every car, always with airconditioning, drives with open windows because of the window reflections. Even during rain, extreme heat or highly contagious zombies trying to bite you through the open window.

I like the bleep-boo sounds of the command prompt scrolling by on computers.

That one actually has some basis in reality though. My terminal still dings at me, it's just that having it ding too much is annoying and out of fashion now. Does no one else remember PCs piezoelectric beeping, even before you upgraded to an actual soundcard?

I actually used to open them up and snip the wires, you don't get to hear it POST but that never really became an issue.
