Title: Re: Things You Overhear People Saying Post by: Emily on April 25, 2016, 10:53:17 AM Artist on her art, said in the valley-girl, everything-sounds-like-a-question inflection: In the same voice "it's like everyone needs to veg-out once in a while, you know""It's art because, like, I have a message I want to represent..." And "he thinks I should keep working after we're married and our pastor supported him. Like, until we have kids. I'm like, why should I get married then?"

Title: Re: Things You Overhear People Saying Post by: Emily on April 25, 2016, 11:54:24 AM "If you still have dreams, don't work here" Now that was probably accurate!Title: Re: Things You Overhear People Saying Post by: the captain on April 25, 2016, 03:41:51 PM 50ish female co-worker with heavy southern drawl to some unseen and unheard colleague, as heard in my office (despite her sitting in a cubicle about 30 feet away).
"For realzies, do you want my help or not?" Saying "realzies" alone should get a person fired (if not executed), but being a middle-aged woman and saying it in a heavy drawl is just worse. It really is. It sounded more like: Fer ree-yul-zees, d'yuh wount mah help'er nowought? Title: Re: Things You Overhear People Saying Post by: SMiLE Brian on April 25, 2016, 03:59:25 PM Tough day?

Overheard on a metro bus (or perhaps in my imagination). Title: Re: Things You Overhear People Saying Post by: Ron on May 07, 2016, 11:42:45 PM Onetime on campus back in the day, I was walking through the courtyard and there was one of those end is near preachers standing out on a box preaching to everybody, there were probably 30 people gathered around giving him hell basically. So he's telling everybody to repent for their sins, etc, etc. and as I'm walking away, just before the door closes to the building I'm going into I hear behind me him loudly yelling back at somebody arguing with him 'I'm not saying ALL College girls are whores....."

Title: Re: Things You Overhear People Saying Post by: alf wiedersehen on May 15, 2016, 11:25:04 AM I was at a marketplace, and a band was playing off in the back. "Sorry I'm being so frickin' moody right now," the singer said to the audience.
Title: Re: Things You Overhear People Saying Post by: 37!ws on May 17, 2016, 10:34:42 AM OMG...some time in 2007 I was doing some SAT tutoring. My student's family had two homes: one in the suburbs near here and a summer home in Florida. Her mom was spending a few days in their Florida home at the time.
Anyway, I get to her house, and her dad lets me in. My student is on the phone when I get there, and I hear her say this: "...so I told the cop, 'You can't cuff me unless you have a warrant!'...oh, the tutor's here, gotta go. Love you, mom!" I....didn't ask. Title: Re: Things You Overhear People Saying Post by: Emily on May 17, 2016, 01:23:34 PM Spamming: please check out the "Billy the Mod" thread:
