[http://www.overheardinnewyork.com/ Overheard In New York] is a website that is pretty much [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin]]: a place for people to share things that they overheard in [[Big Applesauce|New York City]]. All human life really is here, with people of every stripe sharing their stupid, witty or just flat-out bizarre thoughts and stories.
 
Has four sister sites, [http://www.overheardintheoffice.com/ Overheard in the Office], [http://www.overheardatthebeach.com/ Overheard at the Beach], [http://www.celebritywit.com/ Celebrity Wit], and [http://www.overheardeverywhere.com/ Overheard Everywhere], all of which are pretty [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|self-explanatory]] as well.
