I hope you don't think that I just come over for the spells and everything. I mean, I really like just talking and hanging out with you and stuff.

Ann, that's a ferret.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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

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.

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

Now I have to pee.

OMG! Things on Overheard in New York aren't necessarily overheard, in New York! THE HORRAH! [link]

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!

I have been looking around, thinking about getting another cat, which is sort of a pain in the ass because I live in an apartment.

Some of the rescue places want to do home visits. Does that seem a little bit like overkill to anyone else? Also, the entrance to my apartment, despite my best efforts, has a lingering cat pee odor. That particular spot smelled like cat pee from the moment I moved in (from the previous tenants cats) and my cat peeing just exacerbated the problem. I can't just rip up the carpet, because I do not own the apartment. It isn't in my living area, so I just put an air freshener out, but I really don't want potential new cat ALSO marking his/her territory there!
