overheard!

i travel by our very own mumbai locals, whoever does travel by it surely know the consequences of travelling in them. awesome conversation tit-bits. so this is some genuine stuff that i overheard.

1.so this girl was talking on the phone, i am assuming it must be some equally dimwit person on the other end. i gather they were discussing the weather.yeah really.what i am typing is the monlogue that the girl went on to give, i would really like to know what the other person did reply.
girl: you know savi, they weather is so freakish. the other day i went to the theatre(i think it was some weird dombivali kandivali theatre)..it was raining in the theatre..yeah..i mean and it was october.


2.girl "in dire need of geography lessons" on the phone: no but doesnt egypt come in europe?

3.an old aunty to the ticket checker,(she was caught without ticket in the first class): but madam tc, for old people its ok to travel in first class without ticket.

4.topping that a rather well dressed lady with a huge physiology textbook: i cant read.


5.a really intellegent 6 yr old girl asked her mom, "why are school boys allowed in ladies compartment?"
mother: because below 12 yrs they come under children catogory and are allowed in ladies compartment.
girl: are boys really girls when they are below 12?

6.in a rather choc-a-block train wherein you could hardly breathe this one lady had the guts to tell this other female, "why are you stamping my dupatta?"

7.ok this one is my favourite.
i was carrying my usual 2 and a half kilo bag, and pushed and pulled to get in this train (my pass had expired so had to travel by second class). and one madam tells me "why do people carry bags?"


ok so i cant remember any more..if i do will surely add them.

please note:some of them are translated from hindi and marathi
