During my time at camp, I was collecting memorable quotes that I overheard. Most of them are from my fellow counsellors, a lot of them are from me (because I find myself hilarious), and some are from the campers. I thought I'd make a list of them here, to keep them safe.
"We've got a tree fallen down, there's a fire in the unit shelter, and we've lost our socks."
~ Sunny, on the radio to the office during the disastrous staff overnight
"What are they gonna make us do?"
~ London, in a panicked way, after seeing our supervisors putting bits of paper on a table
"I was in Team Moose. I have dyslexia and so for the longest time I thought I was in team MOSES."
~ Starry
Tim-Tam: Knock knock-
Tink: I'm taller than you!
"All my weight is on this back wheel, baby, this truck's not goin' anywhere!"
~ Pugs, sitting calmly in the back of a pick up truck at night, in the pouring rain, on an almost vertical road
"We worked well together, but we also played well together."
~ Sunny
"We should be in a fucking Hilton!"
~ Smiley, disgruntled during staff overnight
(playing Apples to Apples)
Tink: So, for boring..?
Smiley: I put William Shakespeare-
London: Ugh, he's long.
"You're beautiful on the... Everything!"
~ Burnzy tries to compliment me
"I can shout at your kids if you want me to - no one'll fuck with this accent."
~ Jen, when Smiley was complaining that her kids never listen
"Is it weird if I put my bra in my cubby?"
~ Nibbles
"Abraham Lincoln cause he's boring."
~ Tink playing Apples to Apples
"My Stussy is better than your pussy!"
~ Dappy when Nibbles (who was wearing leggings with cats on) laughed at her Stussy hat
Nemo: Brownie's just in her own world-
Brownie: I was thinking about Crocs.
(while playing Mafia)
Camper #1: You were the Mafia last time-
Camper #2: Yes I was, and I killed many innocent people.
(out of nowhere)
Luna: I had a green neck!
Me: ... That's not even the weirdest thing I've heard at camp.
"Luna, do clouds rub together? And do they make a sound when they do?"
~ Ducky, asking important science questions
"Yeah, I just want to laugh myself into a coma."
~ Me
"Stupid ankles! What's the point in having them if they never work!?"
~ Me, after twisting my ankle
"I'm not scared of bears or anything, I'm scared of ghosts."
~ Indi, explaining why she didn't want to walk up to Sky Meadow alone in the dark
"All I know about Stephen King is that he's scary and that he watched his best friend die."
~ Squirrel
(during a human knot exercise)
Camper: There's an odd number of people!
Squirrel: There's an even number of hands!
"Remember when Luna's hair was a volcano."
~ Me
"Whose taco did Hailey put her arm in?"
~ Me to a camper
(at lunch)
Camper #1: What's that smell?
Camper #2: Probably me.
Camper #1: Someone should wake Pepper up - it's time for lunch.
Camper #2: No, that's not a good idea! Let her sleep!
"Why are you stroking a packet of biscuits?"
~ Starry
"My dad is the cutest little fucker going around."
~ Jen, after getting a nice text from her dad
(at lunch)
Camper: Are you vegetarian?
Me: You just saw me eat a pepperoni pizza!
"The headlines will be: Old Woman Kills Herself on Portable Climbing Wall."
~ Pugs, climbing on the wall the National Guard lent us
"Don't poke me with a hard taco shell!"
~ Me to a camper (who was in fact poking me with a hard taco shell)
"I'm a wise little Buddha, sitting here on my pretzel legs."
~ Me, for no reason
"She thinks she's the best thing since sliced lesbian."
~ Tink
"I'm all hot flushes from saying goodbye to Kiwi, I feel like I'm going through the menopause."
~ Starry
"It better not be supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, because tHAT'S GOT AN I IN IT."

(She was)
