I know we’ve done these threads before, but I couldn’t resist.
Overheard today in the grocery checkout line. A late-20-ish woman was chit-chatting with the cashier about some reality show. The woman said to the cashier, “I went to their website, and they get paid like $75,000 an episode. $75,000! That’s almost a million!”
So what have you overheard lately?
I gave the young clerk, at the movie theater, some Susan B. Anthony and Sacajawea dollar coins. He looked them over then asked me “Is this American money?”
Nothing too recent, but here are the two most memorable things I ever heard on the street:
#1 –
Drunken couple outside an apartment building late at night.
Guy: Why should I invite you up to my apartment?
Girl: BECAUSE I’M BEAUTIFUL ASSHOLE!!!
#2 –
Man & Woman sitting just outside a coffee-shop:
Man: If you do that, you will be responsible for victimizing two men who don’t deserve it.
Woman: Oh I will be responsible for victimizing two men who don’t deserve it?
Man: Yes, you be responsible for victimizing two men who don’t deserve it.
Woman: Well I really think I’m justified.
Man: Oh you think you’re justified?
Woman: Yes I think I’m justified.
Man: So you think you’re justified.
