Surround sound this, mister!

Overheard at the north-end Husky . . .

Two men in a mini-van are trying to sell a home theatre system to a guy as he walks to his car.

Seller: "It retails for $2,499. I'll knock like two grand off."

Passerby: "No thanks."

Seller: "Awww, come on, man!"

Passerby (getting aggravated): "Dude! All I want is THIS coffee and THESE celery sticks!"

Mother knows best

Overheard by Sailorfat at Halloween Distributors . . . 

A girl in her early 20s and her mom are looking at the underwear in the lingerie section.

Girl: "I can't wear any of these with my costume. They are way too slutty."

Mom: "It's Halloween. You are supposed to look slutty."
