The random street conversation heard at the end of Natalie Merchant’s Carnival:

“He was with us last night just before the murder.”

I didn't understand that either and thought the question was talking about awareness campaigns for environmental protection or something, and wondered that that was oddly specific. Clearly I need to improve my understanding of mistyped English.

This isn't reddit--you can edit titles.

Whether the editted title will properly propagate is a whole other question.

"Nah thanks, but message me when she turns 18"

Daps up and walks out of the used car dealership

Don't change. They should change: they're the ones who didn't spell it right and then didn't proof it or fix it.

Someone once told me that if you take the time to listen to other people's conversations, you'll find that most people are talking about stupid shit
