So I was in Whole Foods waiting online to pay for a loaf of gluten-free bread, and there was a girl in the line next to me speaking with a girl behind me.

Their speech was appalling, and they were loud and boring.

Early on in the conversation I catch:

Girl 1: "All of our dorms, are like, designed to be castles and shit, and like at first I thought like so cool, but then I was like oh this is so Disney Land and then it's just like whatev."

Girl 2: "But that is like so totally like, like, we just live in apartments, but it's right near school, so like, it's pretty great. What sucks is that I have to call my mom like every night. I don't have time for that."

Girl 1: "Oh like me too. And they'd freak out if they like knew I was coming into New York like ever."

Girl 2: "Oh, I totally shouldn't tell my mom then, because she'd be all whatev and totally tell your parents and then you'd be all --"

Girl 1: "I know, it totally like, stresses me out."

On and on and on. Eventually, one of them notes that the other one goes to Yale.

And then, I just blurted out, "You go to Yale?" with extreme incredjulity.

Girl 1: "Um, like, yeah."

Me: "Your dormitories were not designed to look like castles, rather they were designed to emulate the buildings at older institutions such as Cambridge and Oxford."

Girl 1: "Yeah, but they --"

Me: "Just, if you must abuse the language, do so with more snesitivity to those around you."

and then it was my turn to go pay for my goods.

UGH!
