    This is why I love NY.

     This is why I love NY. I subscribe to the RSS fees for overheardinnewyork.com and multiple times a day it feeds me gems like this:

    Guy #1: Ever notice you can't fart on these subway seats?
    Guy #2: I think it's the angle; I've had that problem before.

    --4 train

    Anyone who's spent time in NY finds this stuff truthful and funny. Of course there's also overheardintheoffice.com that feeds me stuff like:

    CCA: My Excel's not working.
    Manager: I don't care.
    CCA: What should I do if my Excel's not working and you don't care?
    Manager: Call the Ghostbusters.

    or

    Boss: Where did that report go? I have a meeting in less than ten minutes! Where did you put that report?...I just had it! Why do you keep hiding things on me?
    Secretary: Look in your briefcase.
    Boss: It's not in my briefcase! I just looked in it! Why would it be in my briefcase?
    Secretary: Because you just put it in there, dumbass.
    Boss: No, I didn't! I would know if it's in my briefcase!
    Secretary: You sure?
    Boss: Yes! I'm positive! I know it's not...Oh, here it is.
    Secretary: And where was it...?
    Boss: In my briefcase.
    Secretary: Dumbass...go to your meeting and stop bugging me.
    Boss: I have to buy you lunch again, don't I?
    Secretary: Yep. And don't even think that Burger King is going to cut it this time.
