Overheard conversations..
Discussion
In a coffee shop a week ago, overheard tow girls talking to each other about the woman who has had her prison sentance overturned, relating to cot deaths.
" She had Baron Munchausen disease apparently " one of them said...
And in a BMW showroom while waiting for a service - customer sat in a used Z3M saying, as he wiggled the stubby gearshift "Oh - so this one has a close ratio gearbox ?"
The salesman gave me one of those looks Tim in "the office" used to give to camera..

On the train back from Glasgow on Tuesday, a bloke sat with a woman says to her "I must admit there's a part of me that is highly motivated by the sexual-managerial challenge"
Must say if it was an overture to getting in to her drawers, it wouldn't work on me. She was reading the Grauniad though - maybe different things do it for them.

Well, thats me scuppered then!
The most annoying part about this is that when someone believes something to be true, you just cannot prove they are wrong. They think they understand everything there is to know about cars. Guess it's a male ego thing. Anyway what I say is right.
Around ten years ago, on holiday, I went into Boots electrical department in Scarborough to buy a joystick for my sons Atari game.......
I was served by two young girls around 16 years old....
One said to the other as it was being boxed up....
"What's that"
"It's called a joystick"
"Why's it called a joystick then??"
She took a closer look and squealed..
"Ohhhherrrrr!!!!"
I don't think I have ever laughed as much in my life.....

slightly different, but i was chating to a mate about evos and imprezas and i told him they where four wheel drive and he said, "so their easy to park then", once i stopped laughing i tried to tell him what it actually meant and he was getting confused with four wheel steering, but he was having none of it he was convinced thats what it meant, i had to give up in the end.... 
to this day hes convinced thats what it means

Met up with some American car buddies a couple of weeks ago at a pub in Cambridge and had a chat in the car park as we had some cars on display inc a sweet 68 Camaro which just looks evil and runs low 11's in the quarter. A few of the local tupperware clad brigade turned up and had a nose at what a mans car looks like and as i was walking into the pub i heard a Gary say to his mate
"We should get Paul down ere wiff his Fiesta, give that motor a run for its money.....up to 90 anyway"
my missus nearly pissed herself

typical Guardian comment really. They (its readers) are from the Planet Islington and speak a different language...
I was at my 79 yr old mother in laws the other day.
She has a couple of cats. My dog was in the house - and he was taking an uncommon interest in the apron she was wearing - sniffing it with enthusiasm.
" Oh, I expect he can smell my pussy !" was her remark..
Coffee/ sinus moment followed. I had to leave the room.....

Few years back a mate and I were in a McDonalds car park muching some foul McCrappy burger.. its late and the restaurant bit is closing ...obviously drunken bloke walks in from the road approaches a couple of spotties sweeping up outside the door ' Still open mate ?' .. 'Nah, but the drivethrough is ' .. brief pause as drunken bloke 'thinks' about this.. 'But I dont have a car' he replies despondently and shuffles off..
