A minute later, she pronounced "Louvre" as "LOO-vur".

Did she have 1) weird colored hair, or 2) nose piercing, or 3) black colored
fingernails?
'Cause those are the requirements to being an art history major. Well, that
and wealthy parents to support their ass because nobody is not gonna get a
job with that "degree".

To keep this on topic. I'm surprised Missy Hyatt hasn't become an art
history major yet. She can make sculptures of all the missiles that were
stored in her chemical weapons factory.

Hm. Well she'll learn I suppose. We all begin with one step.

My favorite overheard conversation was one side of a cellphone
conversation. College aged chick:

"I hate trig. I don't know why it's required. It isn't even used in
everyday life."

So I guess she's never tried to calculate the proper angle for jumping a
drawbridge with her car.

with the help of a thousand monkeys banging on keyboards, was finally
able to type out the following:

I recall this part of an argument I overheard in midtown Manhattan,
from this woman to the man she was with:
"Before I met you I wasn't working everyday and I didn't get sick".

I had my own theories on that one.
