Overheard in Pittsburgh

From time to time, I like to thank the great people I find recommending Overheard in Pittsburgh online, while at the same time stroking my ego by re-posting their kind words.

PGH Jezebel — “If you live in Pittsburgh and you haven’t visited Overheard in Pittsburgh yet, you are really missing out … It’s addictive and funny.”

Amy Kay — “I love it. I think I lost at least an hour reading through the pages and pages of silly things that people have said while they thought no one was listening.”

Unified Theories — “One of my Pittsburgh blogs that I love to read is Overheard in Pittsburgh. I couldn’t tell you if they got the idea from the NYC blog for certain, but it’s possible. That doesn’t matter, though, because ours is BETTER. And today they sealed the deal on just how much better they truly are by mentioning DEGRASSI: TNG.” [This post is located here.]

raphrat deserves some special thanks because he has been pimping out Overheard in Pittsburgh like it owes him money. Thanks, raphrat.

61C Outbound, 12 a.m., Friday Night.
The bus is full of drunk college students from the “crappy Ophelia party” in Oakland.

1. A Drunk Guy is sitting in a girl’s lap:

Drunk Guy 1: If I’m gonna fart, I’ll let you know.

2. Two Drunk Guys are talking about the party they’re heading to in Squirrel Hill:

Drunk Guy 2: I know this place really well. I know all the good places. I even know the best places for girls to pee. You know, `cause girls need complicated places and stuff. But I guess it sounds weird to say that, so I guess I won’t say that at the party.
Drunk Guy 3: Ha ha! Yeah, I guess guys have it easier. They can just pee on a wall or something.
Drunk Guy 2: I always try to pee my name but it never works `cause the “E” always dribbles in, ya know?
Drunk Guy 3: Yeah: Shit happens.

Physics 101, Alumni Hall, Pitt Campus:

Professor: In the absence of air resistance, all bodies fall to the earth at the same rate. So, if we removed all the air from this room, well, we’d all drop dead to the floor, but we’d all drop at the same rate.
