Post office, Bouquet St., Oakland.
A Man’s voice erupts from behind the door to the manager’s office:
Man: For every hot girl out there, there’s a guy who wants to fuck her. But for every one of those guys, there’s a guy who won’t put up with her shit.

my dad’s been saying something similar for years — but trust me, it goes both ways.

So now folks mouthing tired old cliches and pop culture tropes can get onto Ye Olde Overhearde?
The other day I overheard a guy say “There’s too many motherfuckin’ snakes on this motherfuckin’ plane!” Is that funny or what?

Not just that–I’ve seen this sentiment on bathroom WALLS all over the country, not just the city. More elegantly worded, too.

I’ve never heard this before, but then, I rarely leave the monastery.

I think the context is funnier than the actual words here. You have to admit, when you’re standing in line at the post office, and you suddenly hear that booming from behind the previously quiet manager’s office, it’s pretty funny. It wouldn’t be funny if it was just two guys talking.
