Overheard In Los Angeles: 40+ Incredibly Funny Conversations
We’ve long been advised against listening in on other people’s conversations. Even if this may be the case, on certain occasions we feel trapped. In other cases, people felt their experiences were too special to keep to themselves, and Overheard LA was founded. It appears that the people of Los Angeles have an outstanding collection of funny things to say, as this statement indicates, including bizarre phone calls and strangely formulated questions. To hear all you’ve missed on the only-heard-in-Los-Angeles chat, keep scrolling.
No Talking
It is difficult for many of us to have social interactions with complete strangers. It is impossible to tell whether someone is a chatterbox, and you would have to endure through pointless small talk or think of a polite way to say “No talking, please.” This person in any case wishes he or she were as honest as they say. We only had to sit in one spot and share space. In fact, there was no need for interaction or conversation. If this is the case, it is important that everyone understands it. We’re sorry, but just because we share space with you doesn’t obligate us to do anything else.
Choosing An Avocado
This bit of dialogue will always have Los Angeles written all over it. Clearly, this fellow and his brother have different shopping criteria than most people. There was no way of knowing how important choosing avocados at the grocery was as a first experience.
Choosing An Avocado
What is it about avocados, though, that makes you want to eat them? Is there a golden egg that we haven’t discovered yet? When they were chosen, why was there such a ruckus? It’s not as if one flaw makes it unfit for human consumption. Perhaps we don’t cherish avocados in the same way that Los Angeles citizens do.
It Makes Sense
Although children lack the global wisdom of adults, they occasionally communicate thoughts that are so straightforward that it’s unpleasant. In this instance, the child is not telling the truth, but they do have a good point.
It Makes Sense
They are right when they say that just because someone is an adult does not mean they can be trusted. It’s far riskier to trust older people than other children, unless you’re in a horror movie. Anyone, whether a child or an adult, could be a murderer in such a situation, thus it’s best not to put your trust in anyone.
The Anti-Maskers
Having debates with anti-maskers about what they should and should not do may be somewhat frustrating, but some people rise to the occasion, and some of them even make a point while doing so. Have a look at this employee from the DMV who’s displaying extraordinary courage.
The Anti Maskers
In this way and in such a compelling way, it is impressive to treat Karens the way that you did. You have both served your countries admirably, and we appreciate your efforts to help the Karen people obtain justice.
Silly Names
In the event that we can’t remember the name of something, we invent. We were compelled to play it out, and so we went with the process, which resulted in a hilarious result. Of course, it’s unfortunate to realize that failing to remember something will not automatically solve the problem.
Silly Names
The phrase “waddly cold bird” brought us to tears of laughter. That’s our favorite of all the penguin names they’ve been given. If his date didn’t grasp the joke, he shouldn’t have begun dating her in the first place.
Just Being Honest
We have a moral obligation to help our friends find a terrific partner who will value and cherish them for who they are. Even friendship can fall on deaf ears when someone is unduly smitten, prompting us to remain silent and suffocate until we are allowed to freely voice our frustrations.
Just Being Honest
Unfortunately, this person has spoken far too soon in life. We suppose they were able to get the truth out of their system, even if it was unpleasant? However, whether or if a wedding invitation will be delivered after that date is unknown. After all, it had been expected.
Calm Down, Dad
We have nothing against those who choose to live their life through Instagram since that is their decision. This father, in contrast to his own daughter, is telling the truth in a way that some people may find important to hear. That’s all there is to it.
Calm Down, Dad
This daughter owes it to her father to give him her full attention. Despite their best efforts, not everyone can master the Instagram “fake it until you make it” technique. What good is having fun on social media if you’re not having fun in real life? What is the point of it all?
It’s Not For Everyone
At the moment, there appears to be a plant for every taste. People who wish to stay at home, people who are always on the go, and even those who don’t know how to care for plants have found a place for their plants. However, somebody who cares for plants and flowers probably isn’t the right person for the job.
It’s Not For Everyone
Some people believe that plants can affect their mood, and as a result, they feel our mood can affect them. Both the plant and the plant parent appear to be unable to help each other in this instance.
Staying At Home
We are vehemently against the spread of the pandemic since it deprives us of our favorite activities and our close connections with the people we love. However, other people argue that all that time at home has been of use to them.
Staying At Home
Even if we don’t want the disease outbreak to continue, some people may find the prospect of returning to society as it was after a year away unacceptable. Let’s get back to business as usual without all of the typical societal nonsense.
Totally Different Generation
As if all of this wasn’t surprising enough, we also learned that a whole generation of young people will miss out on knowing the truth about food for the rest of their lives. Quinoa, vegan meat, plant milk, and a variety of other meals and beverages have become part of their daily routine.
Totally Different Generation
Picture yourself as 50 years old, and imagine that you’re speaking with someone who is 20 to 25 years old. You find out only after they have said that they have never had genuine meat or dairy and that food is all-organic in their minds. It’s really a nightmare.
Paid Tickets
Isn’t this a scene that we’re all familiar with? You can hear a half-screamed “Yes,” followed by a swarm of applause from everyone in the room, including the woman who gasped and began to cry. It appears that no one ever gets tired of hearing it, despite its repetition. This couple, on the other hand, is causing a stir in society.
Paid Tickets
Compared to reading about a similar interaction, we were much happier as a result of this interaction for specific reasons. He clearly understands her requirements and is someone she can trust. It is, however, the drama that causes people to think, “Yep, that’s still going on in LA.”
North Carolina-31
We are not actually suggesting that every man is like this, although there is some truth to this assertion in terms of the way things actually work. In large cities, some men appear to have a strong desire to cling to their youth to the greatest extent possible.
North Carolina 31
When you live in the city, it doesn’t matter how old you are as long as you can catch up with the rest of the population, right? It’s never a bad idea to brush up on the fundamentals of human survival skills, no matter how old you are.
Eating A Devil?
When it comes to vegetarian food, it receives a lot of criticism, especially from those who have never tried it. It doesn’t help that their names are occasionally a little too sinister-sounding, which makes them even more intimidating. In our position as Wholefoods employees, we’d be perplexed as to why anyone would believe they could also find the devil in our store.
Eating A Devil?
To be fair, a few other foods, no matter how healthy they claim to be, can be just as bad as the devil himself in terms of health benefits. As far as we can tell, it is entirely up to the individual concerned. The devil will not be served for dinner any time soon, however, that is a given in the Christian faith.
An Awful Date
Just as not all heroes wear capes, not all heroes save folks from burning buildings, to paraphrase a popular saying. A few of them are there to save you from a bad date, much like a godmother would in this case be there to protect you. What a breath of fresh air.
An Awful Date
That poor little girl must have had a truly horrible date if she had to beg a complete stranger to basically get her out of that situation. However, we’re interested in learning more about how things actually went down, as well as how the hostess managed to save the day. We will require any and all information we can get our hands on!
Confused Kid
There comes a point in everyone’s life when they realize that we’re all just bumbling around in a state of complete befuddlement. It appears that we have all been dumped here on Earth with no idea what we are supposed to be doing, and we are simply attempting to make the best of the situation. This youngster realized what was going on much sooner than the rest of us.
Confused Kid
Most of us started out as wishy-washy kids who have said stuff like, “I’m going to be this,” “I’m going to be that,” and “I’m going to be everything.” Most of the time, we aren’t even aware of the time of the day. Despite how far humanity has come, we have been reduced to the point where we are living in a state of confusion.
No Energy For That
On occasion, we awaken with the sensation that we are politicians, shaking hands and schmoozing as if it were election day in our lives. Alternatively, we may wake up feeling like Gollum, only interested in our possessions and not in human contact, in which case we may indeed experience the same emotions as he does.
No Energy For That
As much as we appreciate people’s attempts to be courteous and considerate in general, there are times when we can only take so much of being around people. To his credit, he is still alive at 87, which is quite remarkable. By the tenth interaction, we’re completely spent and drained.
Judging A Person By Their Sign
Not only is it fascinating to meet people who use astrology to guide their dating lives, but it is also educational. Because they were born in a particular month, they will willingly dismiss entire populations of great people. Likewise, they will willingly reject you simply because your stars do not align, even if you have been exceptionally nice to them.
Judging A Person By Their Sign
How are these individuals supposed to begin dating in the first place? They simply ask about the star sign of everyone they meet, is that correct? What percentage of them are aware that there is such a thing as a character and that it isn’t solely based on celebrities? And, hey, Leos are pretty awesome, don’t you think?
Learn From A Kid
Children, how we love them. On the one hand, they can be odd little creatures who say odd things from time to time, and on the other hand, they can be sweet little cuddle balls with great wisdom who know exactly when to give us the good feelings we require. Isn’t that correct?
Learn From A Kid
We are already in awe of this 9-year-old, whoever he may be! Everything about their reasoning is sound! Why spend money on new pants when you can simply eat sweets to make your current ones fit better? You will not suffer a significant financial loss, and you will have significantly more fun as a result.
No Worries
Could finding a decent job that you enjoy and would be willing to stick with until your golden years or even until your birthday not be a dream come true? We’re crossing our fingers that this is the case with this elderly lady. She’s 70 years old, and she still has a youthful appearance.
No Worries
This woman is our hero. Many of us aren’t even half her age, and then after staying up past 11 p.m., we already feel like we’re going to die. She, on the other hand, went to a party until her voice became hoarse and still made it to work the very next day. An idol once more.
No More Trust
When someone says they’re “on their way” or that they’ll be there in “5 minutes,” it’s difficult to believe them these days. No matter where we are in the world, we are all aware that those proclamations do not always mean what they should mean.
No More Trust
People who are actually acquainted with another person, such as this one, would attempt to implement techniques such as setting an earlier meeting time or calling their friend an hour before the meeting to ensure that they are well prepared. Unfortunately, no matter what you do, some people seem to be impervious to time constraints. This is unfortunate.
Looking For The Dog Or The Owner?
Isn’t it more common than not that when a dog owner and their pet become separated, the pet is found first and then the owner is contacted to come to find them? That appears to be the proper course of action. That is why we are perplexed by this particular situation.
Looking For The Dog Or The Owner?
The fact that we don’t know what people at LAX are eating or drinking makes us doubt that this is the best strategy for reuniting owner and canine companion. Despite the fact that we do not know what kind of dog it is or what kind of training it has received, we are confident that it does not understand what gate 2 is or where it is located in the world.
Always Late
For the majority of working-class people with day jobs, a typical day begins with waking up around 5 to 6 a.m., and by 8 or 9 a.m., they are sitting at their desks, standing at their stations, or preparing their tools for the day ahead of them. Being at an exercise class later than 9 a.m. on a workday can be unsettling for some of them as a result.
Always Late
We’d also like to know what kinds of jobs they hold and how they came to hold those positions. Furthermore, it would be nice to be able to sleep in later than 6 a.m. while still maintaining our health and having plenty of free time, you know.
TikTok-er
A few months ago, TikTokers and their ridiculous challenges were ridiculed by the public. Take a look at them right now: they’re making money, traveling all over the world, and outperforming every other platform in the process. How wonderful it must be to live a life like that?
TikTok-Er
During a time when most of us are still alive and working to pay off our student loans, the kid isn’t even of legal drinking age and is already sending his mother and father to all of those expensive destinations. It makes us want to rethink our life choices, but don’t worry, we’ll have plenty of time to do so in the coming years. However, it is possible that it will not be on Tiktok, but rather somewhere else.
Craving For Salad
In our entire short lives, we have never once overheard anyone express a desire for salad, even in passing. It is simply not something that our brains or tastebuds are interested in eating. Nonetheless, it appears that there is someone in Los Angeles right now who is completely opposed to us on this issue.
Craving For Salad
Despite the fact that we have no idea what he has been up to or what he is eating or breathing, everyone should make a point of keeping an eye on him. We have nothing against salad, and we recognize the health benefits it provides, but we are fine with cravings that aren’t related to a salad.
Cutting Hair
After a breakup, we’re not sure when it became fashionable, but if your girl changes her hairstyle, you can bet she’s ready to move on and start making some life changes. Oh, and you can bet that if she purchases a new outfit, she will take the opportunity to show her ex what he is missing out on.
Cutting Hair
Unfortunately for him, he is a minute late for the meeting. It begs the question: what do boys do when their girlfriends get a new haircut and a new wardrobe? When it comes to boys, what is the male equivalent of the unspoken phrase, “New me that’s too good for you”?
No White Jeans
If you’re a mother or know a mom, particularly one with young children, you know how difficult it is to keep white out of their wardrobe. They know that no matter how much they want to wear white, keeping those clothes as nice and pristine as they are would be futile with children running around.
No White Jeans
Given how difficult it is to keep whites around children, this person may be correct in their assessment of responsibility. Before you decide to have a child, consider how responsible you are, from plastic plants to white pants. Prepare to make a sacrifice if you answer white pants.
Not Working On A Monday
Influencers make money every day by plainly sharing a photo on Instagram or performing pranks on YouTube. That’s why it’s understandable if the mere mention of them or their claim to be doing “work” makes some people uncomfortable.
Not Working On A Monday
Isn’t it, after all, our mistake that the influencer job was created in the first place? We, the individuals, are the ones who have placed these people on pedestals and allowed them to start sharing our culture. Isn’t it twisted?
Speaking Facts
This child, right here, is actually speaking on behalf of the entire group. Everyone has experienced their own form of misery as a result of the pandemic, and many are still stuck in that mindset as they try to cope with the situation we’ve all been thrust into, so perhaps we all deserve a little extra kindness.
Speaking Facts
We’re already forbidden from touching, gathering, and just doing several of the things we often used appreciate, and a little additional compassion would be greatly appreciated. With a little empathy and generosity thrown in, we might just be able to make a better world out of this disease outbreak.
Airpods
It’s easy to get them all mixed up with all the strange names that firms come up with to name their products. Why don’t we just call them all the same thing and call it a day? It will make everyone’s life easier. Take a look at what this poor flight crew went through.
Airpods
Her honesty, on the other hand, is admirable. And if it were us, we’d be mortified at having to admit that we don’t know what to call something in front of a large group of people on a plane ride that we were trying to serve professionally.
Definitely Awkward
It’s wonderful when people are showing even the tiniest act of kindness to those in need. It restores faith in humanity and immediately reminded you that there are nice people in the world, but it’s always better to ask or double-check before doing something out of goodness of your heart.
Definitely Awkward
When you make an assumption, this is clearly what you get. However, the barista’s gesture is still lovely. Hopefully, it was given to someone else who was in desperate need of a sandwich and wasn’t counting calories, so it didn’t go to waste.
People’s Reaction
Nobody would have cared if you hacked and coughed like you were dying in public a year ago, but now, even a small cough can make everyone stare in horror and slowly back away as if you were about to attack them like a zombie.
People’s Reaction
In public, even the tiniest tickle in your throat has to be the worst thing that can happen to you. It’s especially aggravating for allergy sufferers. A cough can be choked down, but a sneeze is impossible to avoid.
Homeless Chic?
People are now much more conscious of what they speak, how they behave, what they dress up, and also how they treat others as a result of everyone fighting for different areas of social equality. Sadly, some people appear to prefer to remain as backward as they were previously.
Homeless Chic?
We all understand that style can be silly at times, but that girl is purely out of her mind. Seriously, homeless chic? She needs to be properly educated, both in terms of her manners and, most likely, her fashion choices.
Leaving It Overnight
We have a lot of admiration for those unfortunate souls that have to find employment in customer relations. Every day, they deal with whatever customers throw at them, and they manage to stay sane about 50 times a day. Take a look at this example.
Leaving It Overnight
Although the cashier has a fair argument, we can just imagine the customer’s look of pure disappointment. Oh well, he asked for it and got it. Sometimes all it takes is outwitting the customer to get them to stop talking.
Give All The Cheese Then
Cheese is without a doubt one of humanity’s greatest inventions. We’d probably add cheese to everything if we could get away with it. Unfortunately, restaurants don’t always seem to give enough, resulting in situations like this.
Give All The Cheese Then
There really is no such thing as too much cheese, so don’t be stingy with it. The cheese is the star of the show, and this guy has it down pat when it comes to measurements. That would be the ideal mountain of cheese once a manager walks over and stops the cheese rain.
Finding Someone On The Same Boat
You know how it feels when you ask a classmate if they’ve finished their homework and they say no, and it just makes you feel better knowing you’re in the very same boat? For some individuals in the pandemic, that’s exactly how it feels.
Finding Someone On The Same Boat
Everyone was really in the frame of mind of each for his own before the pandemic, but now it has strangely trapped us all in the same miserable bubble, and we won’t be able to get out unless everyone can. Isn’t it enjoyable?
Age Doesn’t Matter In Love
Age is just a number, but in most cases, it shouldn’t mean a thing in love, right? It’s fine as long as you’re both mature adults who respect, fully comprehend, and care for one another. However, it appears that there may be some minor complications.
Age Doesn’t Matter In Love
Trying to avoid Father’s Day could be the best option for this couple. But, on the other hand, we’ll never know how people’s assumptions will play out. Perhaps the next time they go out, it won’t be on Father’s Day; people will mistake him for her uncle, or even worse, her employer.
Love Ain’t Enough
Plenty of us, it appears, are past believing mushy Hallmark movie platitudes like “Just believe in love” or something similar. We all understand exactly that “love” isn’t quite enough in today’s world, so this one is a refreshing change.
Love Ain’t Enough
That’s such a LA thing to do, at the very least, he’s left her with something wonderful to recollect him by, yeah? Who appears to care about trinkets as well as souvenirs if they can end up leaving you with a useful skill that you’ll use until your last breath?
All Dolled Up
Whether this is iCarly, High School Musical, or any other teen show, we all know that high school actors and extras are uncommon. Furthermore, we all know that teenagers don’t have ripped abs or plump filler lips, so this guy does have a point.
All Dolled Up
Some children these days, particularly among the wealthy in Los Angeles, are already into cosmetics. They’ve moved on from make-up and other cosmetic procedures and are now focusing on veneers and lip fillers. Perhaps that’s why everyone there appears to be an adult.
After Work Out Look
There are simply too several days when we may not have the energy to look half as good as the majority of the people anticipate us to, but we still make an appearance wherever we’re needed. This girl appears to have figured out how to do it.
After Work Out Look
As inconvenient as it is to carry extra luggage around in your arms, this lady makes a great point. Messy hair, rumpled clothes, weary face, no make-up face – the yoga mat provides all the justifications necessary for everyone to leave you alone because of them, or so we hope.
Yep, Everyday
We’re just a variant of tired all day, every day, taking in everything that’s going on around us in this pandemic while still struggling to live and live our lives as best we can. So whenever anyone plans ahead, we already know we’re in the same boat as this guy.
Yep, Everyday
We would not need a psychic or a spiritual guru to understand that most of the time, we just want to be safe at home, chilling out, eating good food, and doing everything we can to relax in preparation for what we’ll have to deal with in the coming days. It’s a cycle we’ve become all too familiar with.
Not Qualified
It’s impossible to have too many overheard avocado conversations in Los Angeles. People in LA are crazy about avocados, and they put a lot of effort into finding the perfect one that isn’t too ripe or too unripe and is ready for toast the same day or the next morning.
Not Qualified
However, as this couple demonstrates, some avocado specialists are clearly superior to others. They can’t entrust this crucial mission to anyone else but themselves. They’re the people to ask if you want to know how to pick the perfect avocado.
Perfect
Quite apart from avocados as well as vegan options, many LA residents are also well-versed in the sign and energy languages. You may be on a date that you know is going well, and then they could tell you that you’re great and everything, but your energies aren’t aligned. Take a look at this example.
Perfect
Even when we understand the importance of being on the same page as that of the person you’re speaking with, we’re not sure this is the best way to communicate that to them. Consider what would happen if she was speaking with her boss. That’s not a conversation we’d want to listen in on.
Brie Met Mason
Including over 7 billion people on the planet, it can be difficult to come up with a unique or original name for your children. As a result, some parents appear to have succumbed to giving their children the strangest names possible.
Brie Met Mason
We’re not implying that Brie or Mason are strange. All of those are fairly common names. They weren’t called X A-12, Fuschia, Robocop, Pilot Inspektor, or Gravity, at the very least (yes, those are all real names). Then it would be a nightmare to describe in detail that to every new person you met.
Living In LA
To put it another way, if you want to become well-known and rub elbows with the industry’s top stars, then move to Los Angeles. While they wait for their acting, singing, and modeling careers to take off, they will have to share a room with more than two people or have extra professions.
Living In LA
It is well known that many of today’s esteemed actors and stars began their careers as aspiring artists in Los Angeles. Every actor has done everything from waitressing to bartending to doing odd jobs to prepare for a career in acting. Everyone’s just waiting for their big break when it comes to entering into the industry.
Neverheard
For someone who is unfamiliar with their country’s history or places, it is completely understandable that they don’t know the names of all of them. I can understand why it’s difficult to listen to; there’s a lot of information here.
Neverheard
They cannot have possibly never heard of or encountered that name in school, as there’s no way they would have never traveled to Idaho or learned anything about it. There are no other Americans in the room, so how do they do it?
Phone Incompatible
Given the apparent prevalence of amusing conversations overheard across the country, we’ve compiled some more amusing overheard conversations for your bundle of joy. This time it’s from a different state, and it’s not just in Los Angeles.
Phone Incompatible
This person was told that they couldn’t date anyone with a different phone number than them. They are both single, which should come as no surprise. Bring your own charger, if at all possible.
Are You My Phone Charger?
Countless people appear to be completely enamored with their mobile devices. It’s impossible for this 15-year-old to imagine her life without it. I won’t lie: I’m in desperate need of a phone charger right now.
Are You My Phone Charger?
Teens say a lot of things, and if you had a closer relationship with them, this one would probably hurt, especially given how important phones and chargers are nowadays. Let’s hope they’ve patched things up since then.
Not Here For You
Good day, Earthlings… Women aren’t here to make you feel good about themselves. Women in the workforce, in particular. We’re not here just to please you; we’re here to live our lives to the fullest.
Not Here For You
What exactly are you referring to? Do you consider yourself a fashion expert now? Is it necessary for them to dress in the manner in which you desire? If you don’t know the answer, don’t say anything. You’re letting a lot of women down.
Ignore You
This is an excellent example of how quickly children pick up and retain new information. And it’s amazing how bright our kids can be when they’re at their best. What an emotionally mature and astute response to annoyance!
Ignore You
What are the titles of the books they’ve read? Adults, too, require this information. In any case, this kid was always going to be smarter and more mature than the rest of us.
Pinch Dat Butt
These women were, at the very least, attempting to conceal their sexual harassment of this man. They didn’t go ahead and assault him, at the very least. Despite this, he listened to every word with rapt attention.
Pinch Dat Butt
Even if it’s in your mother tongue, be careful what you say outside the house! Because you’ll never know whether or not they comprehend it. Because some people may confront you right away, don’t discuss other people outside.
I’m Happy
What a wonderful conversation to be a part of at this time. Being aware of your feelings is advantageous. I realize I know quite a few adults who are smarter than this child.
I’m Happy
We wouldn’t be so sad right now if we could control our emotions and minds like this kid! Anyway, don’t be afraid to be happy if there’s nothing to be sad about, as this kid put it.
That Hurts My Feelings
How can you roll your eyes while looking your grandmother in the eyes? I’d feel like a jerk if I tried to do that while she was telling me how much I had hurt her feelings. I’d melt into a puddle if my grandmother told me I’d hurt her feelings.
That Hurts My Feelings
This is heartbreaking; no one, especially those who care and love deeply, should be experiencing this. If we had the chance, we’d bring his grandmother along and hang out with her or have dinner with her! Thank your lucky stars that you have someone who cares about you because not everyone does.
That’s Not Real
This is a huge warning sign. I’m curious if she got up and left right after he said that. It’s amusing, but it’s her dream, and you can’t be in a relationship with someone who doesn’t believe in you.
That’s Not Real
What exactly does he know? He could be one of those guys who believes that being a blogger is just a fancy word for modeling and other things. Now is your chance to leave him if you haven’t already!
Naps
The only people who should take a nap are those who do not despise themselves. When someone needs a nap, they know exactly what they should do to get some rest.
Naps
It enables you to move forward and become more productive as a result of your experience. I can’t imagine how depressing it must be to go through life without taking a short nap every now and then.
Don’t Electrocute Yourself
She’s at least aware that swimming with a hearing aid isn’t a good idea. At the very least, she is familiar enough with herself to require a reminder. They will, hopefully, not forget.
Don’t Electrocute Yourself
It’s a real blast, but keep an eye on your surroundings! This could get you in trouble, and if your friend sees you being electrocuted, he or she may be traumatized.
