Overheard/Shout Out

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?

 

“I need a Harley ride or something to punch!”

 

“Too much wine – I almost fell asleep in the bathtub.”

 

“Next time just sleep with a snorkel.”

 

“Aside from the scary nightmares and waking up too early, it’s a pretty good Valentine’s Day so far.”

 

“It’s like a Celebrity Deathmatch:  The Mullet vs. The Silver Fox.”

 

“I’m fairly certain the basement scenes from That ’70s Show are based on my life.”

 

“I would have stayed longer but I really had to pee.”

 

“My sister accidentally flashed the crowd once. That’s why we don’t wear bikinis anymore.”

 

“Definitely got some swagger in my stagger tonight.”

 

“The great thing about winter in Door County is that the beer stays cold and there are no mosquitoes!”
