Tears, Teens, and Anime Club

Haven't posted in a couple days...it got a little rough there.  Which, I suppose, is the whole point of this blog is to be able to find the diamond in the rough.

So, funny things I overheard in anime club:

Girl, after her friends forced her to take a picture with a certain boy, walks away and mutters irritably and not at all quietly: "Hashtag the moment your friends make it obvious you like someone"

Boy, after his friend ate a huge handful of Takis and started coughing.  "Can't hold your Takis?" Laughs loudly at his own joke.  "Guys, he can't hold his Takis!"

I stopped to talk to this ten or twelve year old girl and she told me she really wanted to move to Paris.
Me:  Why Paris?
Girl: I just think it would be a great place to ship!
Me:...*thinks in head* like...import/export?  With real ships?  Or does she mean shipping like FedEx?  UPS?*
At my confused look, the girl gives me the classic teenage I know more than you look: You know what shipping is, right?
Me: Uh...
Girl: It's when there's a couple you want to get together and so you ship them!
Me: Ohh....and Paris is--
Girl, now dreamy-eyed interrupts me: Paris is the city of love
Me: *in head( and shipping, apparently...who knew they got FedEx in Paris?

Overheard random girl: "I know I don't like him because I'd so totally rather punch him in the face than make out with his face."

Leader of the Anime Club reading out the rules for their Tosho Con panel: "Okay, first off, no shipping.  There's going to be lots of shipping and we don't even want to try to get involved with that.   Second, no kissing.  Seriously, guys, some of us haven't had our first kiss yet and it would totally suck for my first kiss to be on a stage in front of hundreds of people."  Me, being the totally immature twenty something year old I am:  "HOLLA!!!!!!!"
