At least they try to sell you something our fucking bums tell you about how their aunt died and they need to buy a bus ticket or some crap like that.

One bum told me "Hey, boss man, you look like you could give a person a job, I'm just trying to make some money so I can get a bus ride back home, I told this fella over here I'd sweep this sidewalk (a city sidewalk) for a 'sammich' "....so I guess he was confused as to if he wanted to go home more or eat or maybe he thought he could pay for a ticket with the sandwich ......excuse me 'sammich' or maybe he was so tanked up on crack he figured he could ride the aforementioned 'sammich' to his destination.

I do hate pan handlers
