by Steven Garrity

A snippet of a conversation overheard in line at the grocery store – one annoyed girl says to another:

“…and I was like, Andrew, I can’t be snoring. I’m awake.”

  1. The funny thing about persons who live sole – whether in a relationship or not – is that they consider such comments odd when in fact they constitute 27% of all conversations between co-habitants.

  2. Conversation at a Swiss Chalet in Orillia:

    Frederic (Server): How was your soup?
    Senior (Customer (Female)): Not home made.
    Frederic (while walking away): That’s true.

  3. Overheard at Cafe Diem:

    Guy 1: Cain was the first vampire.
    Guy 2: With each generation of vampire descending from Cain the blood lust decreases.
    Girl: Oh.
    Guy 1: Well… actaully yes and no. Their are two schools of thought.

  4. Nick, thats still the best overheard conversation ever.

    Overheard conversation at the corner store:*

    Girl 1: I hear they are putting in a Ponderosa!

    Girl 2: Thank goodness, when i go to Moncton, I always do three things – Ponderosa, Canned Pop and Canned Beer.

    * For international veiwers i apologize for how local this is.

  5. Well, my best one was overhearing a present day CBC TV personality in midst of trying to pickup someone in Halifax bar ten years ago – “no, no…you can hear us on AM and FM.”

  6. OVERHEARD ON THE LOFTERS:

    DANNY: “Sex to me? Well you know: Sex is sex! It’s something I need…and it’s like extra cardio…”

  7. overheard at the local pub,
    guy sitting at the bar to the waitress: “i work in the meat department”

  9. I blame land ownership. I say we have a sit-in at Steve’s place until he starts being diversely funny and thought provoking in his thread making. I don’t know if there is a 60’s style sit-in chant for that. Maybe we should check with “Adbusters” as Steve is now part of the problem…land master. Bet he clear cuts his lawn.
