Out of Context

I heard one of the strangest things the other day.  I'll admit I absolutely love it when I overhear snippets of conversation completely out of context.  It's really entertaining.

(In Chicago O'Hare Airport) Random Dude In Line Behind Me: "They're always out of trash cans by like, 9 a.m."

I don't even.  Really, what could he have possibly been talking about?  Perhaps roadkill.  Think about it--Guy #1 says, "The new road cleanup facility is really small.  They have to put the dead things from each returning truck into Dumpsters to wait for the garbage guys."  Then Random Dude In Line Behind Me says, "Yeah, I heard.  Supposedly, they're short on Dumpsters, so they have to put the corpses anywhere they can to wait for pickup.  They're always out of trash cans by like, 9 a.m."

Yeah, that's probably what it was.

    They couldn't possibly have been talking about anything other than road kill. Nice Catch.

    You make me laugh. I look forward to Mondays to see how you are perceiving the world.

Hello there, commenter. I'll have you know that I enjoy and read every comment I get, though I can't figure out how to reply. This is either of my own ignorance or because a 'reply' button is not yet in existence.
