Onley, MD (as seen on Eavesdrop DC)

Two woman on Red Line to Glenmont.
Woman 1: "I need to get into one of those sleeper cells"
Woman 2: "What?!"
Woman 1: "You know one of those beds where you can control how firm it is, cause [my husband] likes it too firm."
Woman 2: "No you mean the sleep number bed. Sleeper cells are terrorists groups. You get into a sleeper cell and you would be sleeping at Gitmo on the floor."
Woman 1: "The bed is so hard that it feels like that. See I am so toughened by this bed thing, I could survive Gitmo if I had to sleep on the floor."
Woman 2: "You are from Olney--You couldn't survive the Green Line let alone Gitmo!"
