Thread: more! overheard conversation snippets

    Default more! overheard conversation snippets

    yeah, and, hey, lemme know if you ever want that, uh, meaningless relationship.

    (perhaps not among the smoothest of euphemisms, but, whatever.)
    my three zones of aspiration include upper body layering, accessories, and the key interface of sock, shoe and trouser.

    Her: "Do you know what the holocaust is?"
    Me: "Um, the holocaust"?
    Her: "Yeah."
    Me: "Well, in part, it refers to the time during World War Two when Hitler and other like-minded people persecuted and killed millions of Jewish people."
    Her: "Oh. Cause I keep seeing all these cars driving by every day and I was wondering if it was closed or is it opening again"?

    The cast: 2 men in their 50s, wearing suits, leaving a bar, 4:00-ish pm

    (All dialogue (loosely) translated by Tardisrider from spoken Korean...yes, I understood all of it but there's no reason to go into specifics...)

    man 1: Our subway stop is this way...([points left])

    man 2: No, it's this way...([points right])...you do see where this is going, don't you?

    man 1: No, it's this way...

    man 2: No, it's this way...

    man 1: No, it's this way...

    man 2: No, it's this way...

    man 1 hits man 2 in the jaw...

    man 2 hits man 1 in the jaw...

    At that point, I decided to keep on walking. Last I saw of them, they were rolling around on the ground. In case you were wondering, the subway stop was just around the corner, man 2 was correct.

    I was in Itaewon (ask Michael and Amy) today leaving the subway station. Some women tried to hand me some pamphlets and said "Jesus loves you." I said "Of course he does, we're cousins. Baruch ata'ya'all, ladies..." and kept on walking.

    Me: Sonic?

    Default Here's one from today. WAG MORE BARK LESS

    Agri-Feed Pet and Supply


    me(looking at hats that say Wag More , Bark Less) --

    oh I love this saying wag more bark less..

    (I am showing it to a random lady beside me, she is probably 65)

    lady: I'm about to have 4 of them bark less

    me: Uh, what do you mean?

    lady (with glee) I'm getting them de-barked in surgery.

    me: Oh. You do that?

    lady: yes. They're only 7 months old and they need it.

    me: (to change subject, I pick up a little treat that looks like a bagel)
    I may get my dog one of these.

    lady: I never give my collies things like THAT.

    me: why?

    lady: well I don't give them anything that can roll on the floor like that where they can swallow bacteria that grows on floors and then it gets in their system and causes bloat.

    me: What?

    lady: Oh yes. The people with Danes are really into that. And us w/collies have to be careful also.
