A chuck steak of sorts

Overheard at the Broadway Roastery . . .

Woman: My first job was at a hospital. I worked in the kitchen.
Man: I could never work in a kitchen. My first job was at Bonanza. I lasted three days and I quit. I was dry heaving.

Phone fugitive

Overheard at the airport . . .

Woman 1: Did you ever do 'pay-as-you-go' texting?

Two women laugh.
Woman 3: What?
Woman 2: You just change apartments.

What goes up must come out

Overheard by Brett at a conference on autism . . .

Speaker: ". . . and I know you'll have toys coming up the wing-wang." [NOTE: Is that better than out the yin-yang . . .]

This ain't a martini bar

Two sharp-dressed men in suits stumble out of Bud's on Broadway . . .

Man 1: Oh, man, it's RANCID in there!
Man 2: I know, I know. It was a mistake.

It's like LOL, but different

Overheard by Savannah at Tim Hortons on 51st . . .

Older woman: I wonder what the hold-up is.
Teenager: The cashier is AFK.
(For all you old people out there, "AFK" is a term the kids use, meaning "away from keyboard.")

Girl 2: Let it dry. It'll be OK.
Girl 1: Dude, it's ripped!
Girl 2: Oh, nevermind then.

Mean girls . . . Saskatoon-style.

Overheard at 2nd Ave. McDonald's . . .

Teen girl 1: Brandy* got glasses. Ha ha. They don't look that good.
Teen girl 2: She's not that hot.
Teen girl 1: I know. She's got weird bone structure. She looks exactly like her brother and he's a transvestite.
