Never trust your erection to a foreigner
Ten things learned from Overheard In New York:
- ”A truck ain’t a pair of jeans, son.” (Noted.)
- “If you miss your stop, that sucks — we ain’t goin’ back” (Check.)
- “A practical joker? Isn’t that just called a felon?” (In some countries, yes.)
- “My psychiatrist told me two important things: one, never trust foreigners; two, don’t ever waste an erection, even if you’re alone.” (…but don’t trust that erection to a foreigner!)
- ”Brooklyn is not part of Long Island the same way New York is not part of America.” (I love geography!)
- “Journey is like crack for white people.” (…and so is Faith Hill)
- “They’re called privates for a reason — you’re not supposed to show people.” (…not supposed to show anyone?)
- ”Tampax is the fucking mafia!” (Wow! They really do control everything.)
- ”Having your dick sucked poorly for 10 minutes and then watching him fuck your girlfriend can be fun in moderation, but after a while it just gets old.” (I’ll keep that in mind.)
- ”You deserve to choke on that.” (Yes, I do.)

You know, New York is so wonderfully, beautifully fucked-up! Have you ever seen a website called Overheard in San Antonio or What did you say, Portland?? Didn’t think so!

Everything is true! Journey is like crack for white people. Ever been to a hockey or baseball game when Dont Stop Believing comes on? It’s like they’re freebaseing Steve Perry.

Uhhmmm, Ape, you’re right. But, there is this: http//overheardinhouston.net/wordpress
Nothing against NY, but I’m pretty sure an Overheard in Austin would stack up.

Overheard in Austin would be fucked-up, indeed–but not beautifully so. It’d be more heavy on self-absorbed hipsters arguing over whether or not Neutral Milk Hotel was better than The Olivia Tremor Control.
Still, I like Austin and do my bit to “keep it weird”. See ya at SXSW!
