I thought there was a thread for this already, but couldn't find one in the search

Anyway, in the post office the other day, a guy comes in wearing building stuff and starts having a conversation with somebody else he knows and at the end of the conversation he says, in all seriousness, "I'm just trying to make an honest buck without paying the taxman". He then collects his giro money

And then last night, everybody round a mate's house and this girl was trying to chat one of the lads up and said "So, are you well into indie music then?". I left after that

I was in the Reading branch of Primark a while back and saw this bleak little snippet unfold.

I see this cute little kid running around hiding in the coats and his double-pramface mum shrieks after him "Oi Shandon get back here. Stop fucking about."

"Poor little bugger" i think to myself. What the fuck kind of name is Shandon?

His mum grabs him and ties him back down in the pram next to another little girl.

"You're so naughty" she tells him, "Why cant you be good like Moet here?" Pointing at the little girl.

Thats right. She had called her kids Moet and Chandon.

I overheard something I wish I hadn't years ago in a pub toilet in New York

Two guys in a cubicle together, one says to the other "tastes like chicken fingers"

As a heterosexual vegetarian I hope to never discover what they were talking about

I dont know why 'heterosexual vegetarian' sounds so funny, but it does.

funniest thing to say in the toilets of an old mans pub is "my hands are freezing, could someone hold this for me?"... "get the fuck outta here!"
