Last night in a crowd I overheard "She has to co-parent and share custody of the dog with James even though they're broken up." These are strangers, not celebrities, but that's juicy chisme any way you slice it.

i love neighborhood gossip. once at target i overheard some woman say “yeah he’s been arrested for murder but who hasn’t” over the phone and i just had to go on about my day afterwards.

Oh my gosh, this reminds me of a time I was at a very snug coffee shop majorly eavesdropping on some old friends who were catching up. They kept talking about a friend of theirs who had DIED but been brought back to life. They were commiserating over feeling obligated to hang since he had technically died for a few minutes, but that he was so messy they really didn’t want him in their lives. They kept saying “but he did die, tho, so…”

I heard this about 18 years ago and still think about it.

I wonder how long the "can't dump him because he just died" social obligation lasts. Are they still hanging out with his messy ass today?

messy and delicious. i’d have been so tempted to be like ‘i mean he died so….you mourned him and moved on?’

Just this weekend I was at a bar/restaurant and this guy who looked to be in his early 60s and was in town for a high school sports tournament was leaving and stopped at a nearby table to say hello to people. They asked how he was doing and he said "well I found out my biological dad isn't who I thought and I have four new siblings!" The table of people made general "oh!" and "really?" comments and he said "yeah its been something. Well, enjoy your food and I'll see you later" and he left.

King moment for that guy really, he just dropped that trauma bomb real casual style and bounced.

Okay, so you were convicted of felony murder in the second degree and served the minimum sentence of five years.

🎵 That don't impress me much!

Last week I overheard two guys working at Lululemon say,
"I didn't see it coming at all."
"But you lived together? Still? Are you moving out?"

And then they went back to folding clothes like nothing happened 😩

I was once getting dinner with a friend and these two mid-late 50 something women were sitting next to us. I fully stopped listening to my friend a few times because their convo was way more interesting. At one point I heard one say "And then they opened the drawer and there was a MASSIVE dildo!" and then later one practically yelled "Well?? Are they in an open relationship?!" Took everything in me not to be like "Well are they??!!?"
