the following are a couple of quotes from overheard conversations that i saved as notes my cellphone.
on the bus, said by a skanky woman: "just 'cause i kissed him doesn't mean shit, and you know that!"
at goodwill, said by a woman to her husband while browsing for halloween costume ideas: "you can go as paul bunyan. i'm just seein' a lotta plaid."
last week while riding home from work on the bus, a grey-haired black man decided to preach to the rest of the riders in random bursts of christian propaganda. after each stop when the bus would pick up new riders and continue on its journey, he abruptly stood up from his seat and turned to address his captive audience. each time he shouted variations on this exact quote:
"PRAISE JESUS! KING OF KINGS! LORD OF LORDS! MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE! SAVIOR TO ALL MANKIND! JESUS!"
and just as abruptly, he sat back down and remained quiet until the next stop. most people ignored him, but i caught eyes with a few people and exchanged smiles.
all along, i was considering walking up to him and saying, "excuse me, sir, but i think you may be a bit confused; everybody knows that he-man is actually the master of the universe."
