My housemate...
...in the supermarket, spies some large, round yellow citrus fruit.
"Wow, those are big lemons!"
Other housemate: "Those are grapefruit."

My sister: "There's a Most Haunted Live on, it's the Summer Sauces."

Also my sister, telling me about her trip to Greece: "...and then we went to see the Apocalypse."

And my favourite:
(Watching "I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!"):
sanity_challenged: "Did I just hear someone ask for a coffee table? Why on Earth do they want a coffee table in the jungle?"
boyfriend: "Yeah, I think I just heard Johnny Rotten ask for a kettle. What does he want that for? There's nowhere to plug it in."

I have more...
