185 Times People Overheard The Most Hilarious Conversations That Were Too Good Not To Share

ADVERTISEMENT

After the popularity of Overheard L.A. and then Overheard New York, it seems that we have all become nosy little eavesdroppers. While listening in on strangers conversations should still be considered rude and intrusive, sometimes you can't help but pick up a juicy snippet of gossip, completely out of context, that is just comedy gold.

People are taking to Twitter in their thousands to document these random overheard conversations, and while this may suck in terms of our privacy when out among strangers, its certainly good for a laugh on the internet!

Scroll down below to check out some of the best, compiled in a list by Bored Panda. Scroll down below to check them out for yourself, and don't forget to vote for your favorites!

I'm a Visual Editor at Bored Panda since 2017. I've searched through a multitude of images to create over 2000 diverse posts on a wide range of topics. I love memes, funny, and cute stuff, but I'm also into social issues topics. Despite my background in communication, my heart belongs to visual media, especially photography. When I'm not at my desk, you're likely to find me in the streets with my camera, checking out cool exhibitions, watching a movie at the cinema or just chilling with a coffee in a cozy place

Best I've ever overheard was a child, 10ish, leaving a science & engineering youth camp: "Everything was good except for the explosions. There were no explosions."

I once heard a child say to another child, "No, don't hug me, you're my ex-wife."
