Homeless man sign of the day.
In Venice, CA. Note he has written a © at the end of his missive, and "patent pending" underneath it. Every New Yorker has a few homeless person stories, so here's one of mine from the 1990s. Man walks up to me in the West Village and says "Give me a quarter and I'll tell you a joke." I said "I gotta hear the joke first." He said, "What do you get when you put President Clinton in a meat grinder? President Gore." I gave him a quarter.

That's no homeless man...that's Pauly Shore!
Here's a homeless joke: Some piece o' shit street trash asked me for change earlier today. I pointed, doubled-over and laughed in his dirty, unemployed, nonconstributing, going-to-consume-thousands-of-my-tax-dollars-with-an-imminent-emergency-room-visit face.
You had to be there... it was fucking hilarious!
...and then he grabbed you in a headlock, and slit your throat. You had to be there (the guy was about 6-6, 250).
One time I bypassed a begger and he called after me, "Someday you might be in my place." I yelled back, "Yeah, I know. That's why I'm holding onto my money."
Another time, a guy with garbled speech asked me for money and I said, "You mind repeating that in English?" He started chasing me down the street yelling "FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU!!!"
I deserved that and probably more.
visiting NY first day just fresh from OZ and a guy says any coins to spare so I hand him some Australian $2 coins and he says hey buddy that don't spin here and gives them back. lol
