Overheard in the neighborhood

Woman carrying yoga mat to other woman carrying yoga mat: No Way! I could go get pregnant tomorrow.

Other woman in response: Do it!

Overheard in my favorite café

Man to his friend: I really like my neighborhood, but it's getting a little too bro-ed out, so we're thinking about moving.

His friend: Do people say douchbag anymore or has bro taken its place?

Man: I've been saying bro since I was a kid.

Overheard in the Mission

Girl to her friend: You know how on Jersey Shore they talk about how in groups of hot girls there's always one girl who's kind of gross and not hot at all? They call her the grenade. I'm really afraid that I'm the grenade.

Her friend: No, like I think that poncho just isn't very form fitting so you can't really see that you're hot.

Overheard on the 33 (to Potrero)

Tons and tons of Britney coming from the ipod of the guy sitting next to me. I happened to glance at his playlist at one point, but later on he turned it up so loud you could hear My Prerogative word for word. I <3 San Francisco.

overheard in berkeley

For the first time, ap and b are blogging from the same place!! No more talking via g-chat to recount the night's events - now they can share them over waffle-making and the Sunday NY Times.
Our first co-post is a new series, inspired by our adventures around Berkeley, that will let our readers know just how many absurd things one hears when riding the bus or walking around here.
On Saturday, ap and b took the bus to Berkeley Bowl for some groceries. While riding in mostly silence, another passenger broke that when she said to her friend:
"I can't wait until I have my own room to smoke in...but I just need to focus first before I start smoking. Like get a job first, then I'll start smoking."
At least she has her priorities straight.
