Overheard in Austin

Pre-teen girl wearing lots of makeup talking to her friend on the phone:I can't believe you broke up. I totally thought you guys had a connection.
Older man who looks dressed for yoga staring intensely at a younger woman at Whole Foods: My first lover was Irish. She was a dancer... and I used to get so jealous of her dancing with all of these men. But most of them were gay.
A man tells his girlfriend or wife sitting across from him at a restaurant: You could even rest your head on the edge of the booth while you gave me a blow-job.
One gangsta-type to another outside a warehouse rave:Nah, son, my shorty be a straight-A student.

I heard a good one in Houston last week-

Jazzo type sitting outside coffee shop: "Ike Turner caught a lot of flak for whippin' Tina's ass, but without him there wouldn't be no rock n roll."

 

Are you kidding me? These are obviously made up!

They all have the same punchline and are either written or highly edited by Clarisa Ramirez.

 

What is it about them that makes them seem made up? These are awesome and one of the best features on Austinist!
