I'm just trying to tell you that we have nothing in common besides both of us liking your penis.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

There was possibly some cheering outside my office just now. We're trying to figure out, if it's world cup related, who on earth they were cheering for. Was it some crew of expats from Deutsche Bank? People in an English pub down the street? Trinidadian construction workers? We have no idea. Of course, it was probably something completely unrelated.

Always Anti-fascist!

Roman soldiers did that.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Of the 3, Jesse, #3 is the most likely. Germany-Ecuador ended some time ago.

Really, none of them is likely, given our exact location. Maybe it was fake-cheering related to Spiderman 3. Who knows?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

How did they "stale" the urine?

Fresh urine (while no more gross) is right there. To let it sit around a while in a flagon or a wineskin means keeping it around. And do you only use your OWN stale urine? Or is there a family bucket? Somehow it seems ever so slightly less disgusting to brush with just your own old pee.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think I missed the beginning of the urine conversation. Which is rather confusing.

Now I have to pee.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

While possibly not a health risk, using urine in lieu of Colgate is not something I'd endorse as a good grooming tip.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

It lacks the minty freshness.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Here's what I think is an Overheard scandal: I think people are using it to market stuff. Like this:

I Think There's a Flaw Here Somewhere
By Jenny 

Teen: This car is stolen. Man: What the fuck you talking about? Teen: I got a StolenCarReport on my phone about this car being stolen. Man: Muthafucka, you about to get your phone stolen.

--Montague & Hicks, Brooklyn Heights

How the fuck do you "overhear" that "StolenCarReport" has no spaces? And is capitalized?

I know, my skepticism about Overheard is probably annoying, but I fucking hate when people misuse common goods!
