We‘ve all been taught that it‘s not polite to listen to somebody else‘s private conversations. But sometimes you just can‘t help it but overhear some of it passing by, riding a bus, lifting weights at the gym, or casually shopping. And what makes these funny conversations as amusing as they are is that they're completely out of context.

This Instagram account, Overheard LA, is dedicated to such overheard conversations happening in Los Angeles, California. Stating that “We all have ears,” the creators invite Angelinos to share some of the best pieces that they have ever overheard in their daily lives while living in the City of Angels. From weird questions and ubiquitous conversation topics - the Los Angeles population always has some funny things to say. We think it’s hilarious, and for the rest, you’ll have to scroll down and see for yourself!

I had a girl in my class ask our Chemistry teacher if we were going to study Astrology... He was not impressed (We were supposed to be starting ASTRONOMY)

What happened to diversity? You can only be friends with people who believe the same as you?

Stop dragging small children into politics. If you have a 5 year old sitting around stressing about Trump, you have failed

Agreed. Fox News is NOT a news channel. As admitted by the CEO, it is an entertainment channel which began as a project by right-wing propagandist Rupert Murdoch and Republican media strategist Roger Ailes to spread disinformation and promote GOP politicians.

Makes sense to me. I tried getting my news from multiple sources for a year (including Fox News) and was emotionally/intellectually drained by the clickbait and entertainment bits being sold as "news" on Fox. There's a difference between the news and entertainment, and Fox is not news.

That's a good indication that there are guns in the house and adults with impaired critical thinking skills. I don't let my kids go to homes like that either :D

Are you prepared for your kid asking, "Why are those Fox people always lying?"

Well, they do tend to shoot each other a lot. Some of them are scared of black people, or gays, or muslims, & even forrinners generally.

You can't shield your child from other views, but rather you should treat is as an opportunity to discuss media and other issues. Teach your children to judge their sources of their information

This needs to be an actual measurement of responsibility. Like: from plastic plant to white pants, how responsible are you?

Luna Lovegood type of client! I would've done something like that if my language had such word similarities.

In most cases this is accurate. If you want to fix an exact hour, try with:" See you in 6 minutes". It works for me. ;)
