Girls

Girl #1: I wish I still smoked so I would have a reason to go outside every 20 minutes.
Girl #2: But then you’d have cancer.

–Chelsea elevator

Guy: It’s so crazy, you know, leaving Manhattan.
Girl: I know, if you would have told me five years ago that I’d be living in Brooklyn I’d have laughed at you.

–L train

Overheard by: Benjamin

Girl #1: Ugh! It’s horrible out! It feels like I’m in someone’s lung!
Girl #2: What?
Girl #1: It’s just so moist and warm out here; it’s like being in a giant lung.
Girl #2: …that’s the most disgusting description I think I’ve ever heard.

–74th & Madison

Overheard by: Sarah

Guy: Where do you fall in the debate over wearing deodorant versus body odor?
Girl: Um, I didn’t realize there was a debate.

–70th & York

Girl: Did you just call him a dirty Guatemalan?

–Chip Shop, Brooklyn Heights

Overheard by: Domi

Girl: I don’t know what it is that I love about Jewish guys, but they’re so hot. I’m totally every Jewish mother’s nightmare. I’m the ubershiksa.

–110th & Broadway

Lanky guy: I really don’t like these new jeans you got me. They’re way too tight in the waist and legs, but baggy in the butt, and at least two inches too short. Plus they’re boot cut, and I don’t wear any boots!
Girl: Those are my jeans.
Lanky guy: Oh. Well, that would explain the lack of room in the crotch, then.

–64th & Lexington

Overheard by: Adria

Chick: Excuse me, are you Lindsay the blogger?
Stephanie Klein: No.

–Loews Lincoln Square, West 68th Street

Girl #1: So I woke up with beans and rice in my bed again.
Girl #2: Hmmm, it sounds like the Mexican food fairies paid you another visit last night. I hate when that happens…you know, when I wake up next to a Twinkie.

–46th & Lexington

Girl on cell: You know, you ought to cancel your July 4th party and make it happen on July 16th so I can crash…What do you mean, July 4th only happens once? July 16th could be July 4th. Just buy some illegal fireworks, put on some American pops orchestral music, and barbeque some chicken, and there you go…I’m sure our forefathers were still celebrating on July 16th. They were probably wasted off of their asses!
