College students say the darnest things

It happens that you always seem to catch the weirdest parts of people's conversations. Recently I've noticed that this happens more often at that moment when you take your earphones out at a crowded place. I'm going to call it the Harper Cafeteria Phenomenon.

Today I got: "I put hand sanitizer on and she said she could still taste it." I don't want to speculate what that could possibly be referring to.

Monday's was a little more clear cut: "You can do anything on PCP, man." But it's still just as weird.

As interesting as these are, maybe I should leave my earphones in until I get to class.

It was like a nightmare

Picture it: Harper Cafeteria, sometime in December, 2-3 pm. I'm eating lunch listening to Bo Burnham like I had been doing for the past month. I sit in the middle of the caf even though I usually sit in the back. There is a group of loud, hefty boys across the room. I notice they keep on looking at the TV on the wall, so naturally, I look too.

The sight I saw on that TV was the strangest thing I have ever seen. It was a music video, although I couldn't hear it, which just made it more perplexing. It disturbed me. I kept on looking back to the TV, even though I tried to resist, because it when you see something that...different you can't help it. Plus, I wanted to look it up later.

So, enjoy:
