40 Hilarious Conversations That People Overheard In L.A. And Decided They Were Too Good Not To Share (New Pics)
“We’re all ears,” states their slogan and they mean it. Meet “Overheard LA,” the internet’s powerhouse for conversations that were strictly not meant for one’s ears. With a whopping 1.6M followers on Instagram and 65.6K Followers on Twitter, “Overheard LA” collects some of the most hilarious and relatable conversations out there.
According to the project’s description, “Overheard is the insta-voice of our biggest cities; a unique media brand that satirizes millennial culture with engaging, localized content.”
Its founder, Jesse Margolis, started the account on a whim in 2015 after listening to a very Los Angeles-style conversation at a health food store. Now, it has multiple spinoffs, including Overheard New York.
For those who don’t get what the whole buzz is about, scroll down for the funny conversations featuring ripe avocados, brewed coffee, feta blocks, coughing in public, and… you name it. And after you’re done, be sure to check our previous posts on Overheard LA here and here.

Why not the opposite meds? The depressed spurred to action by the manic, the manics kept back by downers... It's obviously the script for a terrible "comedy" but what could possibly go right?

Refusing service to anti-maskers is the best way to encourage them to change their attitude.

Being 70 and still have to work on your birthday.... Meanwhile in Europe people are going crazy because they can't retire anymore when they're 65.

They always say that when they meet you in a store. When I met my shrink in the DIY store holding a roll of tarp, several rolls of duct tape and an axe he said the same.

I live in Auckland, not LA, but the reason I go to those classes (I mean, not this week, but when we’re not in lockdown) is because I work for a company in a timezone 3 or 4 hours behind depending on daylight saving.

That's terrible and gross. We need to change laws so that spitting becomes assault.

I suppose this is how people become vegan. I don't have the willpower.

Governments should make it impossible to fly without an urgent and valid reason. Taking a vacation in some distant country isn't a valid reason. Looking at you, Ted Cruz.

My town in Germany was called k-town so I was very confused for a second

Every single date of mine. Sometimes I play a drinking game where I take a sip each time he asks a question pertaining to something besides himself. I go home sober.

I believe these are true. People say the dumbest random things. I don't spend much time in LA, but I hear stuff like this all the time walking down the Strip in Las Vegas at night. I swear, it's like I'm in a GTA game

Hello there, native Angeleno here. I've overheard lots of things in LA, but my favorite by far would be when we were in Hollywood at this great sushi place and I overheard this convo: Guy 1: Wait, there's fish in this sushi? Guy 2: C'mon, everyone knows most sushi is fish. Guy 1:...but my life is a lie I really don't know why that was funny now that I think about it but eh

Not overheard in LA but in SF. Was in the ladies' at Chippendale's long ago and two elderly women entered. One was about 4 feet tall and looked like driftwood, the other looked younger but was still pretty long in the tooth. The younger one said in a very loud voice (presumably because other was a bit hard of hearing), "Are you enjoying yourself mom?" and she answered "You know how you can tell? Take off your underwear and throw it at the ceiling. If it sticks, you're having a good time." First time I ever heard that one.... I laughed so hard I had to go pee again.
