To ask for your interesting and shocking overheard conversation experiences?

[AlternativePerspective]

On a train yesterday.

Three other people several rows in front having a very loud, and very explicit conversation. The girl using the f word like it was punctuation and going on about how when she got money on Friday she would be buying some weed because all she needed was a spliff. then telling one of the blokes to be grateful because “Well I gave you two blowjobs yesterday so shut the fuck up.....”. . Man came by with a bike and one of the blokes shouting out to him that he was stealing his bike. He wasn’t and just ignored the bloke.

They were the types that IMO if you approached them you would be asking for trouble. I was both horrified and amused in equal measure...

I’ve come across all sorts on public transport but these were a revelation even to me. .

So anyone else want to share their overheard conversation stories?

Few years ago I was in st albans starbucks when man in suit was on phone next to me i could hear him say he was planning on buying a plane and they were cheap at 2.5 million!

@Morado I know Steve and Purple Aki in another lifetime long ago!!

I was in a cubicle A & E with one of my DS. We'd had to wait ages for an ambulance as there'd been heavy snow. We'd seen the patient in the next cubicle arrive, a little old lady in a neck brace.

The doctor went into her cubicle and we heard him say "Yes, but what was the matter before the paramedics dropped you?"

On an escalator on the Tube I overheard one young woman saying to her friend.

"I'm not seeing him again. He fucks like a chauffeur and his wardrobe's full of suitcases."

I've often wondered exactly what she meant.

Listened to a lady muttering “butter nut squash , butter nut squash, where on earth is the butter nut squash” . She was scanning up and down the soft drinks isle.

He fucks like a chauffeur and his wardrobe's full of suitcases.
That's intriguing!

I guess she'd fucked a chauffeur (or more than one) before?

I was once upstairs on a bus and there was a group of teens/schoolkids on there. One girl was graphically telling everyone about the abortion she had just had and all the inns and outs.The conversation moved onto a lighter note of her boyfriend shagging her and her younger brother catching them and telling everyone he had seen her boyfriends arse going up and down.

*Im not seeing him again. He fucks like a chauffeur and his wardrobe's full of suitcases." Ha ha! That’s funny. No idea either.

He fucks like a chauffeur and his wardrobe's full of suitcases.

.... maybe he found it easy to open her doors and there was plenty of storage room?

yes,but what was the matter before the paramedics dropped you?

Oh Lordy poor lady but SO funny

and butter nut squash..im giggling like a loon at some of these!

@Prawnofthepatriarchy HA! That really made me laugh out loud. Poor woman.

My DH probably caused a few heads to turn after he went into a pharmacy to get me some haemorrhoid cream a few days after I'd given birth. I was still very wobbly, so I stayed in the car with baby DS, parked across the road from the pharmacy, and to my utter horror, DH went in and then reappeared in the doorway and absolutely bellowed across the road, 'She says, are they internal or external?!'

My sister and I were walking along the beach when we heard: “how did I get so drunk? Well I’d had a bottle of champagne to myself and that was before I got to the church”
Always wondered what the event was, a wedding, christening, funeral...

I hope it was not the vicar

Black friend of mine was an expat, but back in London to see family.

He was taking a trip on the tube. Two young Japanese women opposite him started to discuss his appearance, in Japanese, and in the most racist and insulting terms.

He had been living in Japan for 10 years. As he left the train, he gave a little bow, and said, in perfect Japanese, "Ladies, I do hope you enjoy your stay in London."

This thread is an excellent incentive for learning a second language.

@Prawnofthepatriarchy could fucks like a chauffeur mean that he’s really fast because he doesn’t know when he’s going to have to go?

That's a good explanation, 6EZA15.

My guess was that she felt like a passenger. Perhaps he was distant, impersonal? And my best guess on the suitcases is that he seemed likely to clear off without notice.

But I've had years to mull it over and I'm still not convinced.

I stood on the school playing field during the javelin competition to get mine done

iklboo

When I worked in a hospital I was in a toilet cubicle when a couple of girls cam into the ladies.

One said something along the lines of "And then I pissed meself - me leggings were soaked! But I had a long top on so I just took them off and stuck them the bin""

The second said "Did you get a wash in the bogs"

"Nah! I was wondering what to do then I thought, "Well, it's not going to be me licking me thighs tonight, so I didn't bother."

Even more history to it, the stew, and name, came over with Norwegian sailors. It’s called lapskaus in Norway.

That's interesting Edda - I like little snippets of information like that.

I hope it was not the vicar shock*

@LightandShadows didn’t realise I’d left out that it was a woman, maybe the bride!

Altho wait you get lady vicars these days don’t you...

i have just spent the afternoon in a&E. Man a few feet up from me: “My priority is to see Eric by 8:00.” Young woman who I originallly thought must be a nurse but not sure.... “I have no idea who Eric is and I don’t work here.” Man: “I’ll be in the bed next to Eric.”
