Homeless signs

At least some of the people asking for money have a sense of humor:

Here's a link for the source and two dozen more homeless signs (maybe Not Safe For Work):

I know it is cruel, but when someone on the street says "Spare change?" to me, I always reply "No thanks, I already have some."

Seen better signs or have better comebacks?

The cylon one (9th from the top) is great if you've seen Battlestar Galactica. Personally, I think that while the homeless deserve sympathy and charity, homeless/unemployed veterans do especially so.
Those guys deserve some help just for their great wit in making those signs.

humor is better than dispair. the whole thing reminds me of the south park episode about the homeless that parodied 'dawn of the dead'. instead of zombies walking around mumbling 'brains' the homeless milled aroung mumbling 'change'. it was really funny.

I have trouble handing out $$ to panhandlers (they abound over here) but I don't mind paying to see a good act or some creativeness like these signs.

Hrm, my brother, I'm ashamed to say, has done a lot of panhandling over the years. His favorite sign to fly was one that said, "Saving up for a vasectomy". Too bad he wasn't really doing so.
