no more eavesdropping in san fran

Sad day: Overheard Lines is shutting down. This blog was full of — shocker — overheard lines, collected by a cool guy named Tim and his friends. It harbored gems like this...

Half-Full, Half-Empty Girls
Girl 1: "Oh look, those people are camping!"
Girl 2: "No, they're homeless. People don't camp by the freeway."

and this...

'I'm Being A Good Friend'
Girl: "Your breath smells really bad."
Friend: (gasps with hand over mouth) "...That really hurts my feelings."
Girl: "Imagine how many people's feelings you would be hurting if I hadn't told you."

So... I took 30 seconds to mourn, and then promptly started planning a takeover. Except — fatal flaw — I don't live in San Fran, and I don't have a posse of friends contributing... YET!

For now, I'll just start posting random "overheard" hilarity as I catch
it. It won't quite fill the void, but a girl's gotta try.

p.s. If you have any snippets to add, email me: dtpasquariello@yahoo.com
