I've seen him quite a few times in north Austin around Parmer/ Mopac -- Parmer/ I-35 -- Wells Branch/ I-35.
I think Chris Rock HONESTLY said it best with "If a homeless person has a funny sign, he hasn't been homeless for that long. A real homeless person is too hungry to be funny." -Chris Rock
One day in high school I sat at my normal spot at lunch and held up a sign that said, "Need money for beer for party." I walked away with at least $40. Has anyone seen the guy at Irvington and Calvalcade playing his ukelele and singing/yelling in a gravely/Tom Waits style. Its f**kin' great.
Oh, I love rookies. I love those who text-message on Forums. I especially love the ones who tell other people what to do. Hey, tulexan, I wonder if THAT bum knows this one here:
That's your response? I expected more since ur such an almighty forum veteran, riding on his high horse, smacking those lil rookies with his pink baton for making costly spelling mistakes.
I despise beggars, and I despise hobos and bums. They should get JOBS. Touché, non-spelling rookie. you know WHY I am calling you ROOKIE, don't you?
lol, whats funny is that i was encouraging you to volunteer instead of making generalizations about the homeless, but instead of making a valid response, u get defensive and start calling me a rookie. But what do you expect from someone who thinks they can buy thier status or pay off thier problems?
Umm, no. Again, you have mistaken my comments. I don't give money to BUMS, I DESPISE THEM. I give money to sites named CLUTCHFANS.NET, rookie.
This thread used to be funny and light hearted. I don't have the patience for this BS. Lord knows I'm the last one to EVER step in the middle of a fight, but seriously. Look at your post: You implied that he's an idiot (not in a funny ha-ha kind of way) and you didn't seem very "encouraging" by challenging him to volunteer. Did you honestly expect for him to respond positively to your post? And why don't YOU try pitching in for this fantastic website that you use? Why not do as you say and help OTHERS? Clutch can't do all this on his own dime. Don't try to demean the rank of those who actually pitched in out of the kindness of their hearts.
i do help others, its called taking time out every week to organize clothes, stock food, feed ppl... sorry if donating to cfans wasnt so high on my list
WOW, MEGGO... just... WOW... hey, i posted ANOTHER semi-funny homeless dude sign while responding to him... and he's STILL not seeing what I meant. I am thinking one of those "ninja" sign dudes is NOT original... but... which one?
IMO, this thread was lighthearted until the other guy came in talking about illegal Mexicans and bums needing to get jobs. And the name-calling started with "puto".
it's the HANGOUT. Everyone knows I ***** around like that... and hence the non-contributor label CALLING.
