Overheard today, thus far:
8:38 a.m.: "Stay away from my momma, boy."
9:06 a.m: "WHERE YOU AT!? WHERE YOU AT!? WHERE YOU AT!?"
[this is a person's cell phone ring. A very loud recording of either a cantankerous child or an ancient woman--I can't always tell the difference--emanates from the tinny phone speaker, importuning your location]
10:39 a.m.: [an exchange while helping a man set up his email account]
me: "OK..now you need to pick a unique name for your email login/address."
dude: "shorty."
me: "nope. try another one."
dude: "skeety?"
me: sigh. "no."
dude: "how about, 'shortyrock?"
me: "nope."
dude: "rudolph?" [this is not his name.]
me: "Taken. Why not pick one of the names that Yahoo has suggested for you?"
dude: "what about 'retard'? I can remember that one."
