After the popularity of Overheard L.A. and then Overheard New York, it seems that we have all become nosy little eavesdroppers. While listening in on strangers conversations should still be considered rude and intrusive, sometimes you can't help but pick up a juicy snippet of gossip, completely out of context, that is just comedy gold.
People are taking to Twitter in their thousands to document these random overheard conversations, and while this may suck in terms of our privacy when out among strangers, its certainly good for a laugh on the internet!

I do this with my daughter. I'm always closest to the street and on those rare occasions when she comes in my room in the middle of the night to get in my bed, I always sleep closest to the door just in case I gotta pull out my Kimber Solo and whoop some intruders a*s. Hahahahaha.

:( I don't care if this comment gets down voted, I cannot keep this inside: This is an awful thing to say to any child of any age. We don't own anyone, not even our kids. They are PEOPLE, with their own bodies, their own brains, their own feelings and opinions and no one owns them. not their parents, no one. they are not belongings or things or slaves.

This sounds like something I'd say. I once worked at our local golf course where people look for puffins. People would come into the pro shop and ask me about them and I got into trouble for telling the rich guests that they taste great. Probably not the best thing to say.

Some libraries require membership for entry. That is a sin against God and a crime against humanity. When I am empress, those people will be flogged. And keel-hauled.

i'm forever pulling out my debit card to check out books, and i've been known to grab my library card, my Co-op membership card, my Ace Rewards card and have it pay for something. Makes me think my wallet is not organized too well.....

I'm 72 years young, and I still have no clue what the difference is between reptile and amphibian sex? Does it have anything to do with the G-spot?

Commonly referred to as a "French bath". My hubs works swing, so he showers at night. I work from home 4 days a week, so I usually don't shower until later in the day unless I'm going somewhere. One of the very few perks of adulting in this day & age - I get to decide when (and IF) I take a shower. Yee haw! I'm living the dream, baby.

He says that because from his experience a lot of baritone singers tend to get fat and die young. Not that strange if you think about it.

This makes sense. Think about it. 90% + of the time you are using wipes, its because you are dealing with something icky/dirty. So cleaning it off makes sense. Just like you need to clean your sink fixtures.

Lame selection. Surely BP can do better? If you eliminate those that are plain stupid (#181 is an excellent example), not funny, notwitty, not perceptive or not literate you have maye two dozen out of 185 that are worth reading.

My brother and I were at a video store a whole bunch of years ago and overheard the following conversation between two cashiers. Cashier 1: She broke it. Cashier 2: How did she break it? Cashier 1: She whipped it out and wrapped around something. This was in 2002 and we still p**s ourselves laughing about it.
