For the 70,000 temporary citizens of Burning Man, it's been a whirlwind nine days of everything from soul searching to debauchery and everything in between. The city played host to hundreds of art installations and spectacular art cars pumping out tunes all day and night, while talks covered subjects from blockchain to BDSM. As revellers return from experiencing the craziest of dust storms, we give you a collection of the most interesting snippets we overheard at Black Rock City, or the playa, this year...

“Hey. I got high on mushrooms today – fancy sharing a cannabis strip with me?”
“She's totally basic.”
“Have you heard of Yacht Week? When I partied on a yacht there I ended up joining a couple of strangers for a threesome.”
“How is your nose clean? Mine's like broccoli up there.”
“Did you have a fun time last night?”
“Yes, I did LSD and now I'm going to go home.”
“Yes, I did LSD and now I'm going to go home.”
“Your chakras vibrate more on the playa.”
