Outside Hemingway’s, Forbes Ave., South Oakland.
A cluster
Drunk Frat Guy #1: But I would give you a heads-up. I’ll be like, “Heads up!” – and then BOO YEAH! All over your face!
Drunk Frat Guy #2: Well, at least you’re gonna give me a heads-up.
Drunk Frat Guy #1: Oh, I wouldn’t want to ruin your day.
Drunk Frat Guy #2: No way!
Drunk Frat Guy #1: Yeah, I’ll just say, “I’m gonna ruin your day”. And then I’ll ruin your day.

This is the best one I’ve overheard.
They should actually be called “Drunk Guy#1″ and “Drunk Guy#2″, though. They were in a group of 5 or 6 drunk guys.
once upon a time, Hemmingway’s was the classy mature joint in Oakland, home base for CMU & Pitt’s english and literature departments, and specializing in quality beer, scotch, low volume and low-lighting, not to mention good food.
what is operating as “Hemingway’s” now is just another example of how much Oakland has disappeared up its homogenized ass in the last 8 years. :/
