Overheard and Obsessions: Dec. 8, 2017

OVERHEARD

Are there tid-bits of conversations you’ve heard while standing in line at the grocery store, serving a table, or walking down the sidewalk that make you smile, cringe or laugh out loud?

“Wait, screwed up comment sections are a sign of B12 deficiency? That explains so much!”

“Kids aren’t commodities.”

“This is creepy – I have no eyes.”

“For the record, I took no part in creating anything other than disturbances.”

“Tuesdays are ‘no money’ days.”

“I just assumed God sounded like Morgan Freeman.”

“They’ve still got the whale in the ceiling and the cinder block holding up the couch.”

OBSESSIONS

Is there anything you can’t stop thinking about, listening to, watching, eating, or drinking? Obsessions are meant to be your of-the-moment fixation.
