Girl eating brunch across from a guy:Try this.
Guy:It’s okay.
Girl:You don’t know how to taste food right. You know why? It’s because you leave a little bit of food in your mouth from your last bite. (Pause) You know what I mean.
Photographer at Fun Fest, taking a photo of an L.A. DJ:I thought you were going to be taller. You look taller in your Myspace photos.
Woman at a bus stop:I have some books I'm getting rid of if you want them.
