Back to Basics
Here are a few new ones that were Overheard in New York:

Hippy girl: So yeah, we are gonna be living in this yurt for a year without electricity or running water or anything. It's all about getting back to our roots and stuff.
Guy: No electricity or anything? What if you have to call someone or something?
Hippy girl: I'll just use my cell phone.

--Central Park Overheard by: Kelly Ernst

Someone is missing something in their Lit course:

Girl #1 As Shakespeare once said "Thou shall not kill."
Girl #2 No, that would be God.

--11th & University

Now, here's a classic...

Customer: I'm not really much of a meateater. What would you recommend?
Waiter: Another restaurant.

--Peter Luger Steakhouse, Brooklyn Overheard by: Hobo Whisperer

I keep listening, but I sure don't overhear these kinds of things in the Mini-Apple.
