Overheard #2 - CUTE LIVES!


Today, in a pharmacy, in the Hallowe'en section...

Little boy of about 4 comes along the aisle where all the Hallowe'en gear is kept, talking all the way and just as they reach me, he says to his mother in a very "I am NOT scared, this is a perfectly logical thing to say voice, "And we don't even need to LOOK at the vampire mask-es!"

Mask-es! Two syllables! And then I died from the cute.

The End.

Overheard #1


The first in (possibly) a continuing series.

In a theatre, just as the lights are dimming for the opening scene, a man seated behind me who obviously has a glaring lack of knowledge of how the theatah, sweetie dahling, works says:

"I don't know why they need a stage manager. They only have 3 chairs and a table."
UPDATE I was tempted to turn around and say, "Might I suggest, sir, that you adopt a slightly less literal interpretation of the job title?"
