Overheards and Pet Peeves

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?

“Emily, are you throwing angel dust again?”

“Excuse me waitress, what kind of pasta is in the spaghetti?”

“It’s like someone just pooped in my soul.”

“I didn’t know Zinfandel could be red”

“I wish I was a big, white beluga whale.”

“I wonder if they have warm ice cream?”

On the beach At Whitefish Dunes State Park: “Excuse me, can you tell me if this park actually has sand dunes?”

“From what I’ve read on the internet, Africa is really big.”

“Did I just hear a Wookie? Or Helen Keller?”

PET PEEVES

Is there something that really irks you, gets your goat, rubs you the wrong way, drives you up the wall, gets you bent out of shape, puts a stick in your craw, or makes you want to throw in the towel?
