In public places, conversation fragments float by, stick to your brain, catch your attention. You don't look up, or over, but you remember what is said.
Real conversations, phrases, things overheard, post here.

2. Outside a restaurant, earlier today: |
|
Woman, well-dressed, normal-looking: "If he hadn't been acting like such a goddamned jackass, I wouldn't have had to hit him upside the head with the beer bottle."
2nd woman, also well-dressed and normal-looking: "And he had you arrested for that? What an asshole!"

overheard a guy feeling up his car: "30 F*cking dollars! goddamn republicans, i'm not voting for them again"
this was in a rural area in western NC, not exactly the hotbed of progressive thought.
edit: and yes, that is supposed to be "filling" instead of "feeling", freud strikes again. :silly:

an Israeli lecturing a Spaniard on the realities of the Middle East. It went something like (nearly verbatim): "The countries all around Israel - Syria, Egypt, Jordan - they're all demons. At some point they'll need to be defeated."
And we wonder why there's no peace in the Middle East!

19. I was the one talking |
|
"But none of us recalled ever having seen Gretl drop the big tomato!"
(Recalling adverts for Sound of Music tours in Salzburg that referred to a scene that none of us who had grown up on the edited for-TV version had seen.)

22. at a gas station while filling up: |
|
High school girl 1: Put out that cigarette when you fill up!
HSG2: It's cool. You could throw it into the tank and it would go out before it would blow up!
My friend to me: ....erm, hurry up.

On the Disney shuttle, early in the morning, little girl (5 years old maybe) picking her nose and putting her finger in her mouth, over and over again. Her mother glares at her and says "I thought you said you didn't do that anymore."
Her answer, "But Mom! I'm HUNGRY!!"
