Overheard at the Polls

October 31, 2008 - 5:30pm

“We're like, ‘So, what do you need?’ and she's like, ‘A fake ID!

“So we're like,” Here he paused and gave a theatrical gasp. “‘No way!’ and she goes, “‘It's for VOTING, stupid!

“She's like 13.”

Just Outside My Window

March 9, 2008 - 1:58am

The funny about this was the extremely matter-of-fact tone used by the young man, who I assume was taking care of his drunk friend:

“You need to find Brad and get him to take your ass home. Where is Brad?
“Why is Brad at Toppers? Brad is gay.”

Gay men like dancing, and boobs for that matter, so I myself am not entirely surprised that Brad was hanging out at a strip club.

Finally, Something Worth Bragging About

March 3, 2007 - 6:03am

My years of training as wallflower patient observer (before transforming into a social butterfly) have suddenly yielded a fantastic accomplishment. My “overheard” has been published on that bastion of Classic City culture, Overheard in Athens.

Drunk girl 1: She's carrying a hairbrush in her purse! I can't believe you carry a hairbrush in your purse!
Drunk girl 2: Doesn't everybody carry a hairbrush in their purse?
Drunk girl 1: Not me!
Drunk girl 2: Well, what do you carry in your purse? A flask of vodka and a pregnancy test?

Linky-link-link to the page, completely with clever title I can take no credit for.

Overheard in the Minutes Before Anthropology Class

January 27, 2005 - 12:19pm

[I'm going to go out on a limb and assume this guy is taking Bowling as a P.E.]

“The only thing I've done outside of class this semester is I went bowling last night.

“She grades us on bowling etiquette. It's no good. I get really mad when I don't do well and stomp around and yell and everything.

“If she's grading us solely based on bowling etiquette I have a problem.

“The other day I took off my shoe and threw it at somebody.”
