I hate the guys that just like randomly throw things in your face like some kind of pamphlet, and then get pissed when you don't give them money when you start walking off with it.
LOL Streetwise... They're not supposed to force it on you though... kind of like the guys that "clean" your windshield and then expect you to tip them...

lol... I haven't had that yet... but it wouldn't surprise me... there's one guy who ells em that has a sweet *** beard... but yeah those you actually are supposed to buy that's why they're not supposed to force them on you... a guy started the magazine up as a way to help the homeless make a little bit of cash... I think they're actually like 2 dollars or something... they keep most of it and pay back some for the magazine itself... I forget the specifics...

Edit: lol reminds me of the guy at the art musuem... took a friend there and we're waiting in line and the one guy is being all loud and annoying and would say something like if you pay me i'll stop and when one guy finally did he just moved right past him and kept on going to the next group lol... some of em get pretty beligerent... for the most part thought it's not a problem...

When we were there 2 years ago, we had someone hand us one of those magazines. Being tourists, we had no idea and kept walking. Once he told us what it was for, we paid for it, cause honestly it is a cool idea to help the homeless like that.

I do not pay panhandlers though. I remember seeing a show YEARS ago that reported that panhandlers make BANK! I'll be damned if I am going to work hard for my money so you can sit on a street corner and make way more than I do!

I would imagine its possible that they do especially in big citiies like this... thousands of people walk by them daily and even if a small amount of them tip it could add up... Idk though... it can't be fun... they did catch one guy years back spending the day panhandling then when he left the spot he went and got into his SUV and went home lol...

When I was younger living in Milwaukee, while waiting for the bus to go to work this guy in a striped t-shirt walked up to me and yelled, "CHANGE!!" I was broke so I just shook my head at him, which caused him to yell it again louder, as though I hadn't heard him. Staring at me for a few seconds, I guess he gave up and continued hobbling down the street. I've met some odd panhandlers, but he was definitely the funniest out of the bunch.

Last time I was in Philly, I was walking down South Street and within one block, was approached by 4 different panhandlers.

The two that stand out the most are the guy who was sitting on a crate, telling jokes, and the woman who was talking about her sick/dead child, though it was pretty obvious that was not at all the case >.>

Don't they have to get permits or something to "camp out" at a certain spot?
You're supposed to... idk how it all works though...

Edit: it might only be for selling though... I know the people you see out there selling water/candy/newspapers all have to get something... we had to in gradeschool when we were selling candybars in the street to raise money for the league... one of the moms got flashed when we were doing that... guy was just driving along in a trench coat and nothing else and opened it up for her to see when she approached his car...

They're kind of aggressive here. There are some that will just continue even after you said no.

Then there's Leslie...The most famous hobo in all of Austin...

It's funny how some homeless guys get a shtick of some sort to actually propel them to some sort of infamy. In Oshkosh, we had this homeless guy we called Hardhat Harry because he walked around with a hardhat all day. It was rumored that he was actually a millionaire but he chose to walk the streets instead for some reason, but I never really believed that.

Funniest thing ever was the guy who didn't care about getting tips... he got a bunch of greens from a bush or something and camped out on this "bridge" in san fran... now theres probably a couple hundred people aware of him being there and just siiting across the street or like 20 feet away on either side crowded around waiting for the next unsuspecting traveler to walk by unawares and the guy would jump out from his hiding spot and scare the piss out of someone lol... pretty funny...

Well the thing with Leslie is I doubt that he's still destitute. He has his face on cheesy gift shop merchandise.

Bums are bad on 6th Street. They know where all the tanked college kids are. Stupid drunk twenty-one year olds, like I was, are the ones who keep them cruising 6th. You think you give them a five, but then it dawns on you that it was actually a twenty.

I'm excited, I ordered the following items on Amazon today:The first one I haven't seen since middle school, but I remember it being super fun!

The second one, my current wallet is super old and people always tell me I need a new one :P I've had it for like 13 years? My dad had used it before he gave it to me too, so it's seen some wear lol.
