Random Street Scenes

My philosophy has always been when you go out in the world, pay attention as much as possible. There's a lot going on.

Some random street scenes from recent days....

While walking back from the yarn store through Rittenhouse Square I passed a young woman who was trying to talk on her cell phone. The other person apparently couldn't hear her.

This is what I heard:

"Will you have time to do that?"......"I SAID Will you have time to do that?"......"WIIIILLLLLL YOOOUUUUUU HHAAAAAAVVEEE TIIIIIMMMMEEE TO DOOOOO THAAATTTTT?"

(now read this next part in your very best valley girl voice. don't slack off. hers was quite refined and perfect.)

"Oh.mygod. What.the fuck? What is UP with this piece of shit phone?!?!?"

These are the times that make me wish I wrote screenplays for film. I would so include this scene in a movie somehow.

********************
Overheard outside the Acme in Paoli:

Two teenage girls on their break -

"So, I asked my mom... and she said..like...you're Asian. You don't need to shave."


I...never knew that.
