Ok, so I'm going to start a new little feature on my blog here. It's going to be called "Overheard in SPB".
Overheard this morning in the office, from one of my older female co-workers:
"Sergei Leonidovich, don't you know that statistically, only ten percent of the male population likes fat women? The other 90 percent likes REALLY fat women."
(-said during a conversation with male co-worker regarding wheather the above female co-worker needs to lose some more weight or not. )
Also a joke today at the office:
"So there I am, coming out of a restaurant like a decent person, when some swine has the nerve to step on my necktie."
(just in case someone didn't get the joke, because there are no nuances of the voice and shit, in order for someone to have stepped on dude's tie, he had to have been drunk and crawling.)

I LOVE the new overheard section! I collected phrases of the day when in Sahara, but they're never funny like that, just bizzar. For instace, early on, we were told that "The Minister has prepared some turbans for us". It's more bizarre in Spanish somehow. just the combination of "minister" and "turban" for a western ear.
As for yours, no explanation was necessary, at least not for those of us of Russian extraction
Wait, you should totally post your overheard in Sahara ones too. They don't have to necessarily be funny, just bizarre is enough.
