From Overheard in New York:

Guy: I've been finding myself becoming more and more of a misanthropist.

Bimbette: I tried that once, but the chains were a bit much.

Guy: [Angry glare.]

PETS IN HEAVEN EXTRA:

This recent Overheard is also fun:

Mom: So, what kind of animals do you think we will see at the zoo?

Small boy: I think elephants and snakes... Mom? Are there also pretend things there, like dinosaurs and God?

Mom: I think we need to have a talk when we get home.
