Overheard in New York
I’ve been reading this site for the past few weeks, especially on the slow days. The site collects all sorts of random sayings overheard by others on street. Eavesdroppers. I hate eavesdroppers. Anyways, I think it’s worth a bookmark.
Guy: The train car smelled like a dead rat today, I swear.
Woman: I know. It stays in your nose. It’s like a dead body. When you smell rotting flesh, it stays with you no matter what you do. Same with skunk.–Office, 35th & 8th
Hobo: Hey, any of you fellas got a match?
Drunk guy: Yeah I got a match, my ass and your face!
Hobo: I hear ya.–3rd Avenue and 9th Street
Girl: Oh, look. It says, “I Heart Someone in Austin”!…Oh…with autism. Never mind.
–W. 249th & Independence, The Bronx
