A list of some of my favorite things overheard at school, part four:

“My chest is tight” - “Well now that you mention it I feel it too, but it might just be mass hysteria.”

“Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve seen him in anything other than a bathing suit.” - “Who hurt you like this, Ginger?”

“It’s cold and tiny like my aspirations in life.”

“Yarg! My Mexican will defeat you!”

“THIS IS A NON CONSENSUAL MINE CART RIDE.”

“Guys. What if, one day, we tried?”

“Fortnite fandom, for the win!”

“Save the tires!”

“That’s my personal opinion on how animals should wear pants, the other way just looks weird.” 

“Here, have a foot- I hope it sucks!”

A list of some of my favorite things overheard at school, part five:

“Damn Vans, up in the club with those white Daniels.”

“It’s not actually Benedict Cumberbatch, you don’t need to flirt with it.”

“I think that just because Santa has a beard and Mrs Claus wears a dress doesn’t mean we should automatically assume that they’re respectively a guy and a girl. This is just us giving in to gender stereotypes...” - “If this argument actually made any sense I’d be weighing in on it.” 

“I didn’t come here to be attacked!” - “You live here, where else am I supposed to attack you?” 

“Isn’t that an Arby’s thing? We have the memes or something?”

“That’s totally turbulent... It makes me want to attach my own oxygen mask before assisting the person next to me.”

“For Halloween I am going to be a sexy baby crocodile!”

“Who takes a limo to Ross?”

“She keeps waiting for me to notice that she dyed the bottom half of her hair red, but why would I notice? Why would I look below her shoulders?”

“Oh! I know something that will cheer you up- I spilled acid all over my hand in chemistry earlier!”

A list of some of my favorite things overheard at school, part eight:

“Well I do have long ass legs...” - “You have ass-legs???”

“Do you know just how many times you’ve lied to me and  laughed at my pain?” 

“I’m trying to get high. I put on this V-neck sweater every time I get high.”

“No, your brother would totally help if your boyfriend went into anaphylactic  shock.” 

*loud cry of pain* - “Oh, come on, that’s like the least hurtful thing I’ve hit you with today!”

“I’m glad you joined us for this friendly bowling game.” - “This was neither friendly, nor bowling...”

“How could you cry when a boy is becoming a man in the eyes of the Jewish faith?” 

“I need to smooth the parrot!” - “I hate it when people don’t smooth the parrot...”

“Privileged white person...” - “YOU TOO ARE WHITE.”

“Yeah... shouldn’t he be statistically dead by now?”

A list of some of my favorite things overheard at school, part nine:

It’s been far too long since I made one of these

“You don’t get a say in this conversation. Finish the dishes, peasant.” - “Oh, I see how it it. You want tumblr followers more than a loving and devoted brother.” - “... what.” (This one is from home tho.)

“You will have sex with the guy and you will like the penis.” 

“They’re half gay, half straight, depending on who they fuck more.” - “...Bisexual?”

“Mmh yes, get that sexy creep shot.” 

*While displaying apple watch* “I just reached my standing goal!” - “You’re sitting.” 

“Are you licking me?” - “It’s my last line of defense.”

“I’m Chinese, I don’t care about Japan!” - “Aren’t you Korean?”  - “........I messed up, okay?!”

“Your boyfriend can wait, he’s a republican. They have to wait for the wall anyway, he’s used to waiting.”

“This is my second ever Walmart experience, and I’ve got to say, so far it’s mostly positive.” - “...” - “What.”

“Youtube is not pie. If T-Series gets more Youtube, there isn’t any less Youtube for Pewdiepie.”

If I were in a room with five other people and I said "Minecraft," I would get three responses. Three people would say, "Minecraft!" One would say, "What's Minecraft?" The other one would say, "Minecraft is overrated."

I don't think 'infused' would even be a word if it weren't for advertising.

Overheard at University "How did you know it's the first day of spring, I never know when that is?"

"It is always the 21st?"

"Really? I thought it changed every year, you know, depending on whether or not the groundhog saw it's shadow."

Overheard on the street: Bonds

A group of young tourists, two guys, two girls, walking towards me. One young lad in hip sunglasses was excitedly rhyming off a list with his fingers, attempting to explain something to the ladies.

"We FLY together, we DIE together. We... ... EAT together!"

And if those aren't some ride or die bromance level life goals, then I don't know. May they Fly, Eat, and hopefully not Die forever.
