Here are some bits of dialogue I've overheard lately:

1) A kid walking behind me on the way to S Quad, speaking on his cell phone:
"Girl, now you know there are three sides to every story. Your side, her side, and the truth."
I've never heard that one before.

2) Walking through the Natural History Museum to my job at the insects division, I heard three kids, no older than five years old, crowding over that wide tube that places have for donations. You know, you throw a coin in and watch it spin around and go down a drain type thing.
"A: What is that for?
B: It's a toilet.
A: No, it's not!
B: Yes it is!
C: It's an insect cup."
