“I Laughed So Hard I Couldn’t Breathe”: The 40 Funniest Things Folks Have Heard In Public

Most of us, for a variety of good reasons, will spend our time in public, eardrums ensconced in earphones or headphones to drown out the noise. But every now and then, it can be worth it to just listen to the conversations flowing around you because sometimes folks end up saying something truly hilarious without knowing it.

Someone asked “What was the funniest thing that you heard someone say in public?” and netizens shared the best, out of context conversations they have overheard. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your own examples in the comments below.

“I Laughed So Hard I Couldn’t Breathe”: The 40 Funniest Things Folks Have Heard In Public I was sitting on the patio at a bar one afternoon just watching birds and enjoying a few beers alone. Next to me was a group of older folks (around retirement age) just hanging out. They were talking about all kinds of things. I’d drift in and out of listening to them when I heard one man talking about his doctor. He said the doctor had passed away two years prior in almost a depressed tone. The other men told him:

“Don’t be so sad man it’s not like he was your wife or anything.”

And without skipping a beat the man replied:

“I know I shouldn’t be so upset but man he just gave really good prostate exams.”

The entire table started cracking up. I nearly spit my beer out from laughing so hard and the man pointed at me and said:

“See he gets it!”

The laughter only got louder. I didn’t talk to them afterwards or butt into their conversation but it’s a fond memory of mine.

While she was looking, a visibly nervous teen boy slinks past us and stops in front of the condoms etc, about six feet away from us in the same aisle.

We stopped at a yard sale one weekend. We had a really small bulldog with us, super friendly and they were ok with her being there while we browsed. Their little girl, maybe four years old, asked to pet the bulldog and we said she’d love that. So the little girl leans over to pet the pup… and that causes her to do the plumber’s butt crack thing. Mom runs over and pulls the pants and pull up diaper back up. The little girl turns to mom and says “I’m not done pooping yet.”

Mom’s face… it was like the visual version of one of those abrupt record scratches. We played it cool with a little chuckle and said “kids, gotta love em.” We got back to the car and just lost it, just crying laughing.

“I Laughed So Hard I Couldn’t Breathe”: The 40 Funniest Things Folks Have Heard In Public At work today, my coworkers and I were having a very passionate conversation about if ketchup is good or not. One of my coworkers said, “Ketchup is for white people who pretend to like flavor.” I couldn’t stop laughing.

In 2021, I was in a COVID testing line behind a mom and son who I overheard were getting tests for international travel purposes. The son said “next trip, I want to go somewhere exotic…like New Jersey” (this was in NYC).

“I Laughed So Hard I Couldn’t Breathe”: The 40 Funniest Things Folks Have Heard In Public I was teaching a 5 year old drum lessons at a studio and I wrote the word “rhythm” on the board. Pointing at it, I asked him if he knew how to say this word.

He stared at it for 5 seconds and said, “I can’t read.”.

Riding Pirates of the Caribbean in Disneyland, a row of 4 obnoxious teenage girls (OTG) sitting behind us talking VERY loudly. After the drops I hear:

OTG1: "Oh my God, I'm going to get chlamydia from this ride!"

Me (an ER nurse): "you mean giardia, chlamydia is a sexually transmitted disease."

Friend sitting next to me (an ER MD): *laughs*

OTGs don't talk for the rest of the ride.

While taking a train back from a hockey game in Denver, some drunk guys in their early 20s were drunk and being completely obnoxious to everyone around them … Stuff like spitting their tobacco chew under their seats and talking about obscene/ridiculous stuff for a solid 20 min.

A guy next to me in an opposing Canucks jersey was chatting with my group under his breath about how offensive their conversations were, and how annoyed he was at these guys…

Their topic gets to “woke issues” and one of the a******s goes “I don’t get why Harvey Weinstein gets so much flak…. I love Harvey Weinstein”.

… without missing a beat, the Canucks jersey guy matches their frat bro-voice and sarcastically goes: “oh yeah - Weinstein! … I loved that one thing he was in …. What was her name again?!”.

… It took us all by surprise as this guy had been pretty quiet before - so to hear him flip the script and match their level of obnoxious sexist frat-bro voice was too f*****g funny. My friends and I started howling laughing… the a******s tried to quip back with nonsense that didn’t land… which made it even funnier.

I still laugh when I think about this moment.

Once I was hiking back in the early 2000’s, and I walked past a Dad with his daughter and her friend. The daughter said to the friend “I wish I were at the mall or at home watching MTV right now…” It was hilarious at the time, and now is a perfect microcosm of the era. I often wonder where that woman is today and what she is doing.

Target dressing rooms are often just a section of cubicles between two departments & they're open to the air.

Two teenage girls were sharing a dressing room to try on swimsuits & one blurts out "What if girls had BALLS?"

You know how your voice sounds different if you're pushing your stomach out? You could tell she was pooching out her groin when she said it. It's been over 10 years & it still makes me laugh. It was dead quiet for a beat & then everybody in ear-shot burst out laughing.

I'm on a trip with my friends family while we were 16 or so. We all went out to lunch, and the waitress was totally flirting with my friend. NOT even trying to hide it.

So she comes over to refill our drinks. She smiles, looks at my friend, and asks if he wants more. My friends mom, straight faced puts her hand over his glass and says, "No, he better not. He'll wet the bed tonight".

She starts laughing, his face turns bright red and he storms out of there.

A few mins later, my friends mom found out the waitress had the next night off, so she told her she needed to bring a friend tomorrow night and go on a double date with her son & me.

And we had a wonderful double date thr next night.

Was at ice cream shop and what I assume was an uncle and a niece about 8ish years old. I’m standing there waiting for my families order, and all I hear is,
“Was it fun in jail?” From the little girl.
Then uncle responds, teeth clenched, “I went to prison.”

I don’t know why I thought this was so funny but man I was trying hard not to crack up. Kids are wild.

For those who dont know, jail is short term, and you can get out for work sometimes ( you go to work but report back to jail at night) .Prison is long and rough.

Friend: He drives me crazy!

Niece: (laughs)

Friend: I'm just kidding, I wouldn't sell him. I totally wouldn't shove a cookie down his throat, so he'll choke.

Backstory: One night back in college me and a few friends were on our way to dennys after a night of drinking. During the drive a girl in the backseat had to throw up. The driver pulled over and the girl attempted to open the door but couldn’t bc of child lock. My friend in the passenger seat jumped out to open her door at the same time the driver rolled down her window and…..yeah. My buddy caught projectile vomit all over his shirt. We weren’t about to abandon our trip, so the driver gave my vomit covered friend an old work shirt out of his trunk. As we are walking into Dennys an older boomer couple is walking out and the woman says to my friend “Hey! Your shirt is wrinkled!” Without missing a beat my buddy replied “Yeah, well your face is wrinkled, b***h.” It was a legendary comeback we still talk about to this day. I never laughed so hard in my life.

"That has got to be the stupidest f***ing thing I've ever heard you say! You gotta be a f***ing idiot to think that! I can't believe how f***ing stupid you sound." About 10 seconds of silence then "OK, yeah, see you at dinner, love you Ma".
