Overheard

I am a little late with my post. But this is a good one..so it is worth the wait.

Do you ever get the feeling that someone is listening? Perhaps when you say something that isn’t too intelligent, on a crowded train, the person next to you isn’t really listening to his iPod, they are taking notes for the next submission to the overheard blog. This is the phenomena of big cities, if you are in a public place , you have no privacy. So watch what you say, or don’t, it is far more fun that way.

I’m sure some of you know this website, but I hope there are some who don’t, and this blog is just too good to pass up.

    Ha, my friend was on there as a Wednesday one-liner once, and I was the person she was talking to when she said it. I’ve submitted a few things, but I don’t know if they were ever posted. Overheard at College is a good one, too.

    Isn’t the Future Great?

    Girl #1: Feminism is about choice. For example, I choose not to be Susie Homemaker and you choose not to be a dominatrix.
    Girl #2: That’s true.

    Not to be graphic, but this website reminds me of a guy I overheard in a diner when I was younger. He was speaking with a few friends and suddenly I heard him say: “So I didn’t know what to do…her legs were on my shoulders and I think to myself, do I keep on fucking her or can I go get a sandwhich now?”
