Norbert Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 While talking to 2 woodwork technicians at Norton College many years ago, one went off to the toilet and a couple of minutes later through the other guy's walkie-talkie (and through every other support staff's around the building) came the message, "Emergency! Toilet paper needed in trap two" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understanding verbal abuse, then letting people know you understood every word usually gets an ammusing reaction though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babychickens Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 in the car with the window wound down, leaving White Sands National Monument in New Mexico, overheard a child (ooh, seven or eight years old) saying "...and THIS is my impression of a gay snake." turned around to slowly to catch the impression, sadly. I've got another one, too - i have an irish friend (who speaks gaelic). we both used to live in london. one day when i saw him arrive at work, he was grinning like a fool. upon questioning, he said he'd just threatened significant physical violence at someone, for this reason - he was on the tube (a silent place, you don't speak to other people, even friends, as everyone listens - like when you get into a lift with strangers), and there were two scrawny irish teenagers having a great time slagging people off very loundly, in gaelic. my friend listened for a while, until they refered to him as something along the lines of an over-weight mother-loving ugly illegitimate child. He requested that they maybe watch their mouths....they went white and got off at the next station. Quite a big chap, my mate, into hurling.

BasilRathbon Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 A musician friend of mine wrote a song about catching only part of strangers' conversations, which included the overheard comments in the lyrics. My favourite was "They had to feed him through a hole in the floor"...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
