Before I opened this thread, I thought it was going to be about how something you said was posted, and was like, "um, that's not really something to be proud of." *sigh of relief*

I don't think Em meant "I thought you'd submitted yourself", I think she meant "I thought you recognised a quote someone else submitted as something they'd overheard you saying".

Yes, Weez is right.

Yes, I've had one of mine as well:

Dad: You want to get arrested? Brian, put those syringes down. If you want to get high, go outside and find some motha****a on the street.

I submitted one but never checked to see if it made it on.

It went something like this:

At Dunkin' Donuts:

Son, holding a donut (about eight-years-old): I support George W. Bush.
Father, ripping the donut from the boy's hands: No donut for you!

And they walked out.

One of the funniest things I've ever seen/heard.

I've never submitted anything, but I was overheard last year....

Brunette: But... I don't know what to say to him. What do you say to that?
Redhead: Just tell him you wanna use him like a pogo stick.

One I remember. I work across from the pit at Ground Zero on Cortlandt Street and I was going to the post office.
A man held up an infant and say excitingly said

"Look baby, its Ground Zero"

I read them all at work.

I think we should start forming ideas for the headline contest here. I bet we could win it every week. . .

Haha, here's one I heard-

Little girl comes out of house early in the morning eating chips from a bag. Father says to her- "Why are you eating something like chips for breakfast when there are donuts in the house?!!!"
