I just received a beguiling Hot Tip from my favorite Hot Tipper of them all—my fella Jake, who’s spending the (school)year working in NYC, where today he overheard two teenage girls comparing report cards on the A train:

Teen 1: Girl, how you got a A in gym?

Teen 2: I do more than just stand around slapping people.

Personally, I think slapping people is at least as physically beneficial as, say, tetherball, but I guess every school sets its own rules. (For more great Big Apple eavesdropping, check out Overheard in New York.)

As a postscript, Jake also included a photo that manages to degrade both the Christian faith and the art of balloon-twisting simultaneously.
