Harry's Sign


San Francisco is one of the most annoying cities ever. You can't go a block without getting panhandled at least twice. You get panhandler burnout really fast... but I gave Harry a dollar because the laugh was well worth it.

  2. A fellow in the downtown Durango tourist district carries a sign saying, "Chew me out, any topic, $2."

  3. Did that guy just have a really good sense of humor trying to make the best out of a tough situation....or after working that sign for a few hours, did he stand, fold up the wheelchair prop, toss it into the back of his Escalade and take off?

    Sad that we have to live in a world of such skepticism these days huh...

  5. The last time I was in SF, I gave money to the beggar with the sign that said "Need money for vodka and a hooker"

  6. Vancouver is similar. Last time I was there, there was a drug addict on every street corner. Many were too wasted to panhandle.
