overheard in davis sq.

Wandered into one of those cooler-than-thou little hand-crafty boutiques where you can like buy a little kit that walks you through embroidering a skull. I was ignored by the hipsterette behind the jewelry counter, which irritated me, and then I was irritated that I was irritated since normally I love being left alone by salesy types. Then someone came up and asked Hippetta if she had a different one of some thing or another, since the one was dusty, and she said "Basically, what you see is what's out."

Good but not as good as when a pair of girls was walking ahead of me through Harvard yard, and one said to the other, "I mean, we literally made eye contact."


Obviously, I have never made any sort of messy statement like these.
