50 Hilarious Conversations That People Overheard in L.A. And Decided They Were Too Good Not To Share

I HATE it when people bust out that trite c**p. You never know what's going on in a stranger's life, so quit the commentary
It is, though. People have a certain base level of happiness we always return to no matter what kind of life changing happy or painful event we go through. So most of our lives, yeah, we'll be just ok.
You mean you do. Plenty of people really aren't like that.

i think that customer was very rude, the cashier was just trying to be nice.
Damn, this reminded me I should drink mine! ;) Well, I perfectly understand the customer, I also hate others giving me advices but come on, man, not so rude, poor cashier is bored to death and just wanted to be friendly!
I really hate these attempts at "conversation" when I'm checking out in the supermarket. I used to be a cashier, so I understand being polite and friendly like "how are you today?" Response: "fine!" - transaction over or, "did you find everything you need?" Yes. Conversation over. but to be asked, "how has your day been so far?" - I mean, really! What if I just found out my mother is dying? Or that my son needs brain surgery? Or that my subordinate is stealing money? Yes, these situations have occurred in my life. And I don't particularly feel like sharing them, or the reasons that they make me feel terrible - with a cashier, thank you!
that's why you lie and say fine and the conversation would then end. They're not asking the question because they actually want the answer so just provide the answer they expect and move on

As an ex-cashier, I hear her saying this in a totally flat, zombie monotone. No cheer whatsoever.
Good on that customer for snapping back ... stupid cashier, shut up and scan that coconut water!
Cashier: “and I thought you might be a civilized person but I see you’re from america”
That just strikes me as being unnecessarily mean, I’m all for being necessarily mean to bastards who seriously deserve it, but not this, this is like kicking a puppy
Probably the one day the cashier plucks up the courage to show some 'personality', get's shot down, loses confidence, goes back into shell.
Cashier discretely turns around, hocks up a loogie, spits in coconuts water, turns back around and... "Here you go sir, your coconut water. Enjoy your day!"
Trust me, a tall man isn't always cool to go out with.. My sister's ex is 6'4 and he's a bastard
Mature kid? They certainly know how to give a good excuse whether it's true or not!
Dad to wife later that evening : "You know honey, or son is not bisexual, they call that unisex nowadays."
Luna Lovegood type of client! I would've done something like that if my language had such word similarities.
With one hundred degree weather on a daily basis? Yes. I approve of this.
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. ;)

I've read it all. I'm astonished. Is this representative for LA? Are people in LA so shallow, pretentious and dumb?
I've lived in LA my entire life and find that while you do have your fair share of shallow, pretentious, and dumb people, there are many kind souls as well. These people mentioned are those extremely rich white people who have recently been moving here.

They were either all made up, in which case many were quite funny, or they were real, revealing people in LA to be as shallow as p**s on a plate
Nice photo of ‘barista’ Jimmy Carr, British-Irish comedian and host of The Big Fat Quiz of Everything on the BBC.
I once overhear some lady in a coffee shop say to the person she were sitting with: "If you leave me, I will hate f**k your cat."
Then why did you take the time to come here and comment? XD
