Girl 1: Heh-heh-heh-heh-heh.
Girl 2: Heh heh. No.
Guy: I was talking about the hot dog buns.
(Girl, on the phone, on a campus thoroughfare.)
Girl: I wish you didn’t have a penis!

(Guy, at a dining hall’s table, eating dinner.)
Guy: Isn’t what we call cauliflower just effeminate broccoli?
(Guys in a public library.)
Guy: So I was reading The Babysitter’s Club, and I guess Grandma had a really cool secret. But chapter books are too much for me these days, so I just flipped to the back to find out what it was. Turns out Grandma just had breast cancer.
(Guy, walking on the beach.)
Guy: I’m Tin Pin Bill. See, they used to call me Crim Pin Bill, but that didn’t really make any sense. Read More »

(In a calculus class.)
Professor: Does anyone know the answer? *points to guy in class* What about you? And say, do I know you? You look familiar.
Guy: I took this class before. And no, I don’t.
(Two bros, walking in the rain.)
Bro 1: Yo, when I say “no homo,” it means you let me under your umbrella.

(Girl, raising hand in class.)
Girl: Wait, so … some languages don’t have vowels? That’s IMPOSSIBLE! How are you supposed to pronounce them? Do you have to guess? I can’t believe that! That’s so stupid! *scribbles furiously in notebook*
(Professor, teaching a class.)
Prof: Heaven is hard to describe. I’ve seen plenty of evocative depictions of Hell, but I’ve never seen a truly compelling vision of Heaven.
Student, interrupting: May I suggest one?
Prof: No. I want to talk about something else.
(Two guys, getting into their car.)
Guy: You ever notice that every time we go to make candles, one of us cheats on his girlfriend? Read More »

(Guys, walking through a grove on-campus.)
Guy: Nice day… birds, blue skies, not a cloud in sight. Yup. This rock looks pretty good to take a crap on.
(Older student, talking to high schooler on campus tour.)
Student: There’s actually a statistic, I think, something like 30 percent of the liquid of water parks is urine.
High schooler: Yeah, that sounds pretty reasonable. That’s about right.
Student: What the f***? No it’s not! That would be disgusting!

Guy: I love cilantro. It makes everything taste like it’s just been rinsed in a mountain waterfall. Read More »

Girl 1: I guess I’ve only heard it said by gay pirates.

(Two guys, talking next to a weight bench.)
Guy 1: We skied a whole bunch last winter. Do you partake?
Guy 2: Yeah, sometimes. You’re talking about cocaine, right?
(Guy, on the phone. Sounds like he’s getting through a breakup.)
Guy: Thanks for talking about this with me. It’s really hard to talk about sometimes.
(beat)
Hey, well, we’re both single now, right?
