I see stupid people….

I feel there should be some kind of test one has to take to live in the city of New York, because I think we have successfully hit our idiot quota.  

Me ordering a sandwich at subway yesterday: “Hi, can I have a 6 inch turkey on wheat, no cheese”

Sandwich artist with IQ of a retarded chimp: “Do you want cheese on that?”

Me: “No.”

Sandwich artist: “lettuce/tomato?”

Me: “Yes”

Sandwich artist: “what kind of cheese?”

Me: (blinks) 

Or this verbatim conversation that happened yesterday in my bank;

Worried woman (rushing up to the bank teller window): “Did you find a phone here? I think I left my blackberry this morning. Did anyone turn it in?”

Bank teller: “No, but what’s your cell…..we can call you if it turns up.”

Woman: (silence)

    If you haven’t yet discovered www.overheardinnewyork.com please run, don’t walk.  This site is genius…..I mean, if you are a New Yorker, you have heard many a dumbass conversation while you are out and about on any given day.  This site provides a sounding board for people to post the hilarious things they hear.  So, I thought I’d dedicate this post to stupid people everywhere…..you know who you are;

Button-down and khakis guy #1: I wish I had a bi-polar friend…it’d be like having two friends in one!
Button-down guy #2, completely serious: Yeah, that’d be awesome.

 

Three-year-old boy: This is an iPhone, it can play YouTube videos.
Three-year-old girl: I know.

 

Woman looking for friend who got lost in massive crowd: Marco! Marco!
Massive crowd of people: Polo!

 

Guy #1: So when’s your birthday?
Guy #2: It’s June 24.
Guy #1: Hey, mine is May 24.
Guy #2: And my girlfriend’s is January 24.
Guy #1: Wow…we should all have sex.

 

Hobo #1: Britney Spears is a pussy.
Hobo #2: I was tapping her before she got pregnant.

 

Subway operator: This downtown 1 train will not be stopping at 50th Street. I repeat, will not be stopping at 50th Street.
(a minute passes)
Subway operator
: We will not be stopping at 50th Street. There is a stalled train there. We will be going straight to 42nd without stopping at 50th.

(another minute goes by)
Subway operator
: This is a downtown 1 train, next stop will be 50th. Shit! 42nd.

 

Guy #1(in PATH station): I went out drinking last night and didn’t smoke.
Guy #2: Except cock.
Guy #1: Yeah, besides that.

 

Hobo with cup of change in hand: You have any change?
College kid: Sorry, I don’t have any money.
Hobo: Get a fucking job.
College kid: Fuck you! You first!
Hobo: I’m working right now, asshole.

 

If you have heard any ridiculous conversations recently, please send ‘em my way.  And, for the love of God, if you are stupid…please don’t procreate.

    Last time I was in new York, there were two school girls on the subway. Girl no. One: so my boyfriend is joining the navy but I don’t want him up in the sky! Girl no. Two: the navy’s underground stupid!

    Personally, I love that in the photo of “I see Dumb People”, they’ve used the incorrect spelling of “they’re” in the second sentence.

    I’d like to think that was purposeful, but we all know that it wasn’t :)
