Overheard from two girls walking past is outside a movie theater: “he was like a gay lobster”.
Two that came most quickly to my mind are from songs I heard this week:
“Concrete jungle where dreams are made of…” :rolleyes:
“It’s our god-forsaken right to be loved…” :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
I used to use these as sig lines: (some paraphrased, due to old age memory lose)
“Axl Rose? Who the hell is that fat old queen?”
At the Bard’s festival: “Nobody’s gonna confuse her for a dude! Look at the tits on that fuck-animal!”
And a blast from the past: “Hey, look! Pancakes! No tip for you, Shithook!”
Honorable Mention: “I wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then”
“On one hand, I know exactly what I want. On the other hand, I’m ambivalent.”
‘…electrical cord around my neck, about ready to…’
I cannot decide if I want to know what was on either side of that or not.
Him (speaking of calling a friend on another continent): “Remember, they are six hours ahead of us”.
Her: “Six hours their time, or ours?”
mmm
A female co-worker was walking by my office with a visitor.
Co-worker: We’re the same age. My brother and I are twins.
Guest: Regular or identical?
I laughed out loud. The co-worked later told me that I’d be surprised how often she gets asked that question.
One of three youngish businessman types:
“All in all, I think he was better off with the cocaine.”
In a fairly busy park one Sunday morning:
“I still can’t believe I let you do me in the butt last night.”
Walking by a group of hippies in SF on the edge of their seats listening to their friend around an outdoor table, explains that:
…in the Oort cloud… hiding… making their ships almost imossible to ever observe! So, you now see…"
And my thread is from SF too.
Sitting in a bar listening to a man in a 3 piece business suit talking to an androgynous person with fire engine red hair.
“I could love him as a man but I’m not sure could love him as a women”
I was wondering exactly “who” the woman was. The speaker? The subject man? The wife of said man? possibly the androgynous person may have some info that could clarify this but I was late for an appointment and didn’t stay any longer.
About 3 months ago, I walk by a cube in our office that vendors usually setup at. Guy on cell phone whispering (but not low enough obviously):
“Well if I could do that, I would not have to bring a whole summer sausage and a bag of balloons, now would I”?
Endless speculation has ensued… reminds me of what’s in briefcase in Pulp Fiction, only more disturbing.
In a coffee shop: “Until I took Intro Psych, I had never heard of ‘arrested development’”.
“The show?”
In a restaurant, to a waiter: “How much do you charge for a bounced check?”
I could barely hold myself together after the latter.
Imagine being in your isolated country home early one morning and hearing through an open window, “Stop stop stop, pretzels on the roof!”
(That one was uttered by me.)
Sotto voce from a guy to his girlfriend in the front of a Blockbuster line (in which I was the cashier):
I’m gonna take you home and hump you.
Angry reaction from negligent mother who refused to chastise her young son for standing on the bus seats while in motion, and was called out on that by another passenger:
Did you squeeze that boy out of your pussy?
“Isn’t it a coincidence that Jesus was born exactly on Christmas day!”
A recent afternoon at work I heard a guy say “if it wasn’t for that cloud cover I think the sun would be out”.
Heard from a regular customer at the restaurant where I bussed tables 20 years ago: “Every two weeks he pays me 200 bucks to come over and yell at him and pee on him in the bathtub,”
This one makes sense to me. There are quite a few things that I wish I didn’t know about. Most of these things are weird, gross, sex things that I found on the internet.
I heard once “You people Made My Check Bounce…!” at a store. :rolleyes:
I always wondered if the counter person replied, “How? By depositing it…?” I’m sure instead the store apologized & gave her something. Probably put a sign on the wall too:
“All Checks Not Clearly Labeled as “Origami” Will Be Deposited” :smack:
