Overheard in Public - Bizarre Conversations
Created | Updated Feb 1, 2004
This entry has been prompted by the sort of conversation snippets you overhear when walking past people talking. One example personally documented by the author was said by a blonde to a group of people as they walked past the author: 'It's OK, there's four of us; we can do this on our own, we can have a conversation!' The following are all genuine snippets of conversation overheard (most completely out of context) in passing. Any inaccuracies are entirely due to the author's inability to use his ears properly.
Number One - 21/5/03
'He killed a fish.'
Number Two - 18/6/03
In a computer room - 'Ah! Why are there flowers in my document?!'
Number Three - 20/6/03
'What I never get is the bread in the middle of the crust.'
Number Four - 23/6/03
'Have you done the Drama work?' 'What Drama work?' 'Good.'
Number Five - 8/8/031
'A tree came in and ate me just like the film2.'
Number Six - 25/9/03
'A tube of fried eggs.'
Number Seven - 6/10/03
'He broke his... cell membrane...'
Number Eight - 30/1/04
'He's as quick as a spoon!'
More soon!
1OK, so I didn't actually overhear this, but it's quoted from an official source, as said by Mark Owen on Chris Moyles' show on BBC Radio One, about filming for an interview.2Referring to 'Poltergeist'
