What are the short stories that everyone writes?

I think there are some short stories that everyone tries to write at some point. For example, who hasn't written a story about a writer at one time or another? I think bank robbery stories are another common idea that many writers try and make their own. And writers with any sort of connection to war have probably written a story about war. There is the story that takes place in a bar. There is the story of a breakup. There is the story that starts by waking up from a dream that we later learn is an overdone and a hard sell. But, for most of these common ideas, I think writers can make these ideas there own. What do you guys think? Can we put our own spin on these ideas to make them work? Obviously, many writers do. Or do you try and stay away from these because you know editors have read a hundred bank robbery stories? Also, what sort of stories do you think are typical for writers to try writing? Should we try and stay away from them or not?
