Eavesdropping is my favourite hobby, don't act like it isn't yours too! I love catching snippets of other people's conversations, not to be intrusive, simply because I find them fascinating, as I'm sure people love listening in on my conversations too.
I like to Tweet a lot of random quotes which are things which I have either overheard or things which have been said to me, therefore, I thought I would compile a list of things I have heard recently in a bunch of different environments. These things were heard over a time span of a couple of weeks and so involved me whipping out my iPhone as soon as I heard something funny or bizarre, to quickly type it into my notes so I didn't forget it. If anybody was to open my phone and see that list, they would probably be rather confused!
To be honest, this is something that I would urge everybody to do! Even if you don't necessarily jot down the things you have overheard, just open your ears a little bit more! I reckon it will make you slightly more aware of your surroundings and aware of the many types of people around you. Also, its really fun to even just catch three words of someone's conversation as they walk past you in the street, as you'll never get to know how it ended!
