Overheard
On Henry and Pacific
man in a pork pie hat:: There are goombas and there are goombas, and this guy is a goomba. He's a steal your car, hit you with a tire iron, acid in the face kind of goomba .
young greasy haired guy: Stop. He's practically retarted. I see him putting out milk to the stray cats and meowing. [Meows] That guy?
man in a pork pie hat:: You're so smart. What do you think happened to Michael's thumbs?
. . . .
On Dean Street
kid: Why can't we keep the Christmas tree all year?
mom: Because we have to leave them out for the poor people.
kid: Nobody wants a used tree.
mom: See you don't understand what it is to be poor. If you were really poor, even a used tree would seem nice.
. . . . .
on State Street
4 or 5 year old boy (to himself): fruit rolls are not candy. No. No. No.
. . . . .
on 23rd Street
street vendor selling toy cars: One for five dollars, Two for six.
customer: How much for three?
street vendor: Nine dollars.
customer: But that doesn't make any sense.
street vendor: Looks like you'll have to buy 4 for ten.
