A beer would be nice..

You would be surprised, a little bit of honesty can go a long way.

I was stranded in Lake Shasta. We had a bunch of pennies in my trumpet case. So we spelled out half of Oregon with the pennies. People broke bills to help us spell Oregon. It was crazy, we had to start taking money away and breaking up the letters. We made 50 bucks in 3 hours. It was enough to get us back to Oregon.

“I see you! Do you see me?”

“Giving away free money to people who look me in the eye!”

This is one of the funniest posts I’ve seen. I can’t wait for more answers. Quick related story: I was walking in downtown Santa Cruz, and a guy who looked homeless passed me on the streeet and said, “Can you spare a $50?” At least he’s asking for what he wants!

Give me some money and I will stop staring at you with this ridiculously lifeless gaze, like you can’t tell if I’m dead or I’m going to kill you. Seriously, it’s been three days since I’ve eaten solid food. I’m not really worried about being out here frozen to this cold concrete or that my blanket tonight will be Sunday’s newspaper, but if I don’t get something to eat extremely soon I think I might die. If I told you my story you wouldn’t believe me, but it would make an astounding country song. So, if you have ANY money to spare or even an apple in your car please just roll your window down a couple of inches and slide it out. I would thank you a thousand times, but hopefully my smile would say it all. It shames my battered soul to be out here like this and if it was not my last resort I would be working like a normal person…. and my dog died yesterday

@tennesseejac. You’re going to need a couple of people to stand on the corner with you to help you hold up that sign. :o)

Mine would say:

“Will move to another corner for food.”

@pigpen: I’ve seen one verrrrrry similar to that one. It was, IIRC, “Ninjas killed my father, I need money for Karate lessons so I can avenge him.”
