At a middle school basketball game, the contributor overheard this conversation between two young blonde girls:
Girl 1: Hey, the White House is in Washington, right?
Girl 2: Yeah.
Girl 1: Washington D.C., right?
Girl 2: That’s the only Washington there is.
Girl 1: No it’s not!
Girl 2: Yes it is.
Girl 1: No, there’s a Washington state right above … um … Oregon, I think.
Girl 2: No there’s not!
Girl 1: Yes, I am telling you there is.
Girl 2: No, Montana is above Oregon.
Girl 1: No, let me go get my Humanities atlas and see.
[Seven minutes elapse...]
Girl 1: See, right there: Washington state!
Girl 2: No way, let me see!
Girl 1: Right there! HA! Wow, I didn’t know there was a West Virginia!
Girl 2: Of course, you stupid retard!
Girl 1: Well you didn’t know there was a Washington! So there!
Girl 2: Fine we’re even. [Flips pages in atlas.]
Girl 1: Whoa … what’s Bangladesh?
Girl 2: Just shut up!

Over on www.ericdsnider.com, Eric D. Snider (the creator of WeMadeOut) has a message board. Eric is a writer and a film critic, and there is a semi-regular visitor to the board named RayJay who thinks the same can be said of himself. Here is a line from his review of “The Grudge” (we recommend that you read the entire review, and then click around the rest of the site if you’re so inclined):
Well to understand the premese of the movie you need to look at what is beleved behind the movie!
…
i give this movie a yellow light due to the fact that it wasn’t all it was cracked up to be and it did scare me a little (if it didn’t scare me i would of gaven it a red light but because i was shivering ill give it a yellow light)!

Sitting in a Geneseo, New York, Denny’s at 2 a.m. one Friday night, the contributor and her friend overheard one side of a phone conversation. The side they could hear was spoken by a big, muscular guy wearing a fraternity shirt. His side of the conversation was as follows:
Man, you totally missed it. That girl who was all over Mike was there tonight and she wouldn’t catch a clue. Yeah. He kept telling her to get away from him and she wouldn’t. So we dumped beer on her.
[pause, listening to response]
Dude, what do avacados have to do with anything?

From the contributor: Here are a few random/funny things I’ve overheard.
My friend, completely out of nowhere:
My cousin tried to drown me once. Now she’s pregnant. That’s called Karma.
A classmate, before a chemistry test:
Are we going to be counted off for wrong answers?
My grandpa, while watching a news report about computer viruses:
That internet sounds like trouble to me.
