Freak Show

Real dialogue overheard at the office:

Guy 1: My great uncle's daughter choked on a chicken bone one night at dinner. His daughter passed out and died right in front of him.

Can you imagine that? That must be horrible. Your child is hurt and you can do nothing to save her.

So in my family we're paranoid about choking. I always tell my daughter to chew her food.

Guy 2: My cousin hung himself with a belt. So in my family, we're paranoid about belts.
