Most people don’t go around listening to other people’s conversations. Unless you’re nosy. But sometimes we can’t help but overhear conversations.
What you hear can be horrifying. It can also be embarrassing or just downright hilarious. Either way, it makes you want to eavesdrop a little bit more.
Thanks to the hashtag #overheard or #ioverheard, you don’t have to. You can just survey conversations that other people have heard online. And the results are pretty damn funny.
Here are 75 of the funniest overheard conversations people had to share:
This person overheard someone say they can’t date someone who doesn’t have the same phone as them. No wonder they’re single. How about bring your own charger?
2) Are You My Phone Charger?
A lot of people seem to really be obsessed with their phones. It’s something this 15-year-old can’t live without. I can’t lie, I definitely need my phone charger.
3) It’s Better to Be Lucky
Is it better to be lucky or good? Most people would say good. But if you really had the choice, would you pick that?
I find it hard to believe that someone came to this realization. If you were a supporter, chances are you still are. And if you’re weren’t, you never will be.
Sometimes waiters get nasty customers. And sometimes customers get nasty waiters. It’s how the balance of the universe works.
6) Harry Potter is Overrated
Some people just aren’t Harry Potter fans. I can’t imagine why. But this is just harsh.

Tai chi… looking for a WiFi, what’s the difference? Well, a lot. But it can look the same.
This just goes to show how well children pick things up. And how smart our little kids can be. What an emotionally intelligent response to being annoyed.

At least these women were trying to be discreet about their sexual harrassment of this man. At least they didn’t move forward with assaulting him. Still, he heard every word.
I love this person’s response. He tried. Apparently that means he also didn’t succeed.

This has to be one of the saddest conversations ever heard. If you’re not at Disneyland to have fun, what the hell are you doing? Poor kid.

How can you roll your eyes at your grandma? I’d feel like such a jerk if I attempted to do that when she was telling me that I hurt her feelings. I would melt into a puddle if my grandma told me I hurt her feelings.
I mean, this kind of makes sense. A toilet can be a magical throne. And on some days, it definitely is the source of your powers.
Some dads will fight tooth and nail against getting a pet. In the end they loose. And in the end they wind up loving the dog the most.
It’s nice to see children growing up with self-esteem. Hopefully we don’t have an evil queen on our hands. Probably just a future strong powerful woman.
I don’t know if I should feel defeated or happy. Defeated that I may never figure out life. Or happy because it’s OK if I don’t.

Should we party tonight? On a Sunday? We all know that’s not going to happen.
You wouldn’t know unless you’ve been married more than once. I wonder what preceeded this comment. And I wonder how many times the person saying it has been married.
54) Diarrhea is a Blessing
You have to be a real saint to see diarrhea as a blessing. And this woman is a saint. And will also be in the bathroom all night.

Smash about the Korean War. It was called
M*A*S*H.

I’ve never heard of pee smelling like pretzels. But that would be great if mine did. Gotta love kids.

Is a romper supposed to be the opposite of pants? It doesn’t really translate well. I don’t like it.
