I like to watch couple in restaurants who appear to be on a first date. Body language says so much more than words.
alssst
"Sometimes"?
deohmaan
I have always lived in places where I never knew the native language so I have never known what strangers talk about..
deskmouse
In the nocturnal section of our local zoo. Random bloke 'they need better lighting in here' total idiot.

ALL. THE. TIME.

Sometimes is an understatement, but I spend a lot of time talking to VPs and CEOs. If they can't perform, promote them!
bodyartspitfire
Sometimes when in public, I wonder if anyone listening in on my conversation, is thinking the same...
nicoerwan
Not listening. Just hearing. That is enought stupidity

Once heard a woman on a flight landing in Oslo saying "Pilot flew wrong! Were in Denmark! You can tell by the hills and mountains!"

I don't really need to do the first part to do the second part

I use Imgur so yeah, like every other post most days.

I once listened to a guy tell his friend how much he hated his wife, but to divorce her would mean alimony and child support.
spacerat1982
Real men don't talk about their wives in public. Of course they are a pain in the ass and everyone else on the planet. Welcome to earth.
InapropsDude
I don't. I hate people and always wear headphones when leading the house.
OctopusOccult
I have had to explain to a women our return policy that she claim wasn't posted anywhere. Just on the back of every receipt and register.
Poopinwhilebrowsing
I think that sometimes without hearing people utter a single word

Many conversations you overhear sound stupid when the two people talking know each other and you don't know them.
heebiejeepie
Disengage - or you shall go mad.
Ringshadow
I've had the opposite happen. Listened to a twenty minute conversation about Mock-UN debates. I felt so fuckin stupid.
dublet
Socrates knows nothing, so you're in good company.

i ride public transportation. That's all i can do while on the bus.
TsubakiTragic
"Sometimes" ?
MerToo
I frequently read them on Imgur
Retrikaethan
and that's one of many reasons why i don't start conversations in public.
llucey
I work at a small cafe. I get to listen to many first dates.
RedExclamation
(actual dialogue) "I'm sick of this, I need to date someone older, like much older. Like 25"
JustARando
I heard some fully grown men talking, among other things, about how if we got rid of the concept of currency (1/2)
JustARando
and people only did things for the hell of it, society would no longer have any problems. (2/2)
BronzeLeaguePro
This is me in about 80% of imgur posts. Of course, I'm not so dumb as to not realize they'd think the same about me, so...
WellThatWasWeirdWhatNext
Guilty as charged. I have no regrets.

College kids at a coffee shop. They all traveled for study on their student loans. That's going to suck here shortly.
Camelspotting
Or they have money.
darkdragonempress
If they are majoring in something with decent job prospects, that's actually not stupid. Those types of programs are actually really good 1
Cheomesh
I suspect not. I didn't hear any discussion of Engineering or Maths-based study.
darkdragonempress
Those aren't the only job markets that exist. Teaching, biology or chem can go to med school, psych is pretty good if you get a masters.
darkdragonempress
Deals because of all they generally include, it's can be a good resume builder since you were immersed in another culture. And if they 2
darkdragonempress
Can pay off those loans later, it's good to take the hit now. 3
skipweasel
Remember crossed lines on the telephone? "I couldn't possibly trust him, he drives a white Rolls-Royce" - overheard in London in the 80s.
thegrimcoder
Are you talking about party lines?
skipweasel
No - though we had one of them when I was a kid. This was when two calls got cross-connected so you heard someone else as well.
monkeyfooty22
Are you 1 million years old
skipweasel
Mid-50s.
atarang
College kids on the morning train. So green and new and full of hope and bs. The one said "like" 47 times. I counted.
rushid930
With my experience with kids. Many are smart but have that as a nervous tick. When formulating a thought they fill it with "like" or "um"
scoopette1993
That doesn't make you a stupid person. It's just how they speak when they're comfortable.
Schmuck4hire
I remember I used to make fun of that, and then I picked it up without realising it. It often worms its way into my writing, too.
belindashort
One weird thing about school is that we pick up mannerisms from the people around us
IronicUsername
I think that's more a weird thing about everywhere.
itsprobablysarcastic
That's life, not school
TheBlackWindHowls
"Like" is the new "uh" and "um." Count how many older people say those things instead.
wanderingwheels1985
So true, even millenials use them. Worked w/ an EMR vendors rep. during an install. He used "um " in a 30 min. conf. call over 150 times
Sassmachine
New?
sweetnaivety
New? I'm 29 years old and "like" was extremely popular to say when I was in middle/high school, I said it a LOT too. I do live in Cali tho.
sweetnaivety
I still say like sometimes but not as much as I said it in like, middle school. Like, I used to like, say it like every other word!
atarang
True but I'd take "uh" and "um" over "like" with that weird almost valley girl accent any day. Every statement sounds like a question.
NoseCandyDandy
I have a valley accent and specifically went to toastmasters to stop saying like. People were either visibly annoyed or thought I was a
NoseCandyDandy
flake when speaking. I feel much more confident now and actually get respect ????
atarang
I think that's the main misconception. They do sound like flakes so I don't understand why they intentionally speak that way. Congrats tho!
Badprenup
You were doing so well until you ended a statement with 4 question marks
mistaopportunity
Like, I mean that’s like, just your, like, opinion man. Like.
IlikeblueberrieswithcreamandpancakesSomechocolateaswell
Kill thath mother fucker next time this world is going to fuck and it's because of terrorist like him. KILL KILL THAT FUCK. KILL KILL NOW!!
atarang
Ok now. You might want to dial it back just a bit. This isn't Tucker and Dale, they're just college kids lol.
IlikeblueberrieswithcreamandpancakesSomechocolateaswell
I FUCKING SAY KILL KILL THE FUCKS. SCUM FROM FUCKINGM RETCHEDIE FUCJINGHELL MOETERFUCKERS SHOUOILD BEKILLLED
