Overheard In London

I found an interesting website this afternoon - Overheard In London - that resulted in some loud guffaws emanating from my gob. It's full of things people have overheard in and around London and emailed to the site. Who knows if they're actually true but some of them are laugh-out-loud quality.

Some examples:


Parenting skills

I wouldn't call it brain drain!

2 white blokes on a bus doing along by Denmark Hill.

White bloke #1 (looking out of the bus and onto the street): 'It's all shit round here.'
White bloke #2: 'All these fucking immigrants.'
White bloke #1: 'Yeah. If there was a country without immigrants I'd go and live there.'

Horny Chocolate Sellers

Girl #1 selling chocolates: "Alright mate; how about it? Wanna try?"
Bloke: "Nah thanks love, you're sweet enough."
Girl #2 selling chocolates: "That guy was so fit, and he just made a pass at you."
Girl #1 selling chocolates: "I know. If he'd have bought a chocolate I'd totally already be sat on his face."
Girl #2 selling chocolates: "I'd have just given him a chocolate..."

Fidelity or not

Guy 1: "... so you're in an open relationship?"
Guy 2: "Yeah, well kind of .."
Guy 1: "What do you mean 'kind of'?!"
Guy 2: "Well, she doesn't know yet."
