Overheard in Austin

Glassy-eyed college student:Make me a sandwich robot.
Equally glassy-eyed friend:Wait, do you mean "make me a sandwich, robot" or do you mean "make me a sandwich robot"? Like, are you calling me a robot or are you saying you want a robot that specializes in making sandwiches?
Girl in the ladies bathroom at Gingerman pub: So I was sleeping with Steve the other night and after we were done I told him that the only other man in my life was Jesus.
Woman talking to her friend at the bar: I don't think he's attractive, but it's a good thing not all women are like me or else he wouldn't have a girlfriend.
Convenience store clerk on the phone with another employee:That? Oh yeah, that had butt sweat all over it. You should probably wash your hands.

This is by far the best feature on Austinist.

I'll have to echo that - best feature on Austinist yet.

I'm questioning the journalistic morals of Ms. Clarisa Ramirez.

I AM the sandwich robot, and I happen to know for a fact that those words were never "Overheard in Austin." That quote belongs on the Negrilist, damnit.

What's next? VITAMIN P??

Talk about Keeping it low.

I agree - hilarious feature. I was also very pleased to see one of mine make the first batch.
