People who keep calling someone’s name who is unresponsive (either unconscious or walking away). You’ve said their name six times now. They either need car, or you need to say something different.
Problems that could have been easily solved by communication, but the characters did something like: “I can explain!” Instead of just explaining.
“I need to tell you something extremely important, it will only take 3 sentences to cover the gist of it. However, instead of leaving it on this voicemail to ensure you’ll get it, I’ll instead tell you to ring me back at which point I will die/be killed”

Most fiction wouldn’t exist if people properly communicated in it.
Especially sitcoms. Especially Three’s Company.
