Script Syndrome 

A condition in which a written media will make a character, or characters speak or act in a way that seems contrary to their interests, past conflicts, or ideals for the sake of emphasizing a certain point or narrative device, as if the characters were reading off a script.

e.g. Leorio and Kurapika's argument on the elevator in the second episode of Hunter x Hunter.
Many action stories suffer from script syndrome

Wire Space 

The small area behind (or under (and sometimes next to)) some type of electronic device in which the wires required for its operation are clumped up together in this incongruous mass.
"Hey do you know where I can plug my charger?"

"Check the wire space."

"... Actually, never mind."
