Overheard

Guy No. 1: "How do you like the new SmartLink card?"
Guy No. 2: "I love it."

A SmartLink card is a plastic, credit-card-size train ticket that users refill by inserting it into a machine and providing payment. So, this guy was saying he loves a train ticket. What the fuck?

However, on the scale of intolerability, he pales in comparison to this lady, as reported by the Associated Press:

SAN ANTONIO — A woman charged with murdering her 3 1/2-week-old son used a knife and two swords to dismember the child and ate parts of his body, including his brain, before stabbing herself in the torso and slicing her own throat, police said Monday.

Or this guy:

CHINO HILLS, Calif. — San Bernardino County authorities say a Chino Hills man apparently killed his 7-year-old daughter and himself.

The bodies of 50-year-old Carl Jacobson and his daughter, Katie, were found around 9:30 p.m. Saturday by the man's wife when she returned home after visiting other relatives.

People are funny; one guy loves a train ticket, and some lady decapitates her baby. Next thing you know, some white singer, who used to be black, will be mourned as a victim and feted with a
Staples Center gala.
