Overheards and Shoutouts

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?

“Could you please stop listening to our conversation.”

“That dude’s ears were fat!”

“Nooooo!, not that one, that’s my good hopping leg.”

“Any song about blue jeans I hate.”

“Guys when they get drunk will wear lipstick. I guarantee it.”

“Obviously you don’t define funny by laughter.”

“Oh, I can’t go out. I don’t have time to comb my mustache.”

“If we talk about people who could disappear, he’s one of them.”

“I like that story. You tell good stories.”

“At least he comes and kills my spiders.”

“I do suck at playing with animals.”

“Sorry, I was working all day so I’m getting presentable to be in public.”

SHOUT OUTS
Is there someone or something that deserves a pat on the back or a slap on the wrist?

“Shout out to Door To Door Local Harvest for an excellent growing season, which filled our bellies and pantry with fruits and vegetables!” ~The Sherman Family

“Shout out to my fantastic Fall 50 teammates – what a great day for a run with a fun group of girls (not to mention our radical outfits)! I’m already looking forward to next year!” ~ Allison Vroman
