Though homelessness is no laughing matter, consider comedian Chris Rock's spoken-word song No Sex (In the Champagne Room):
"If a homeless person has a funny sign,
He hasn't been homeless that long.
A real homeless person is too hungry to be funny."
To wit:
1. Cut the guy some slack, you know what he means.
2. This guy's brave, that's all we can say.
3. Albus Dumbledore Outed, Fired as Headmaster at Prestigious Hogwarts, Last Seen Panhandling in Kingston upon Thames
4. Gotta love the enthusiasm.
5. Translation? "My life's amok. It really sucks."
6. Working hard or hardly working?
7. Had Jerry Garcia been tone-deaf.
8. When you wish upon a star...
9. Makes no bones about it, does he?
10. If you could just channel some of that creativity...
We used to have this guy near me in upstate new york who had a sign "Need food bad Will work hard" but every time we saw him he was eating a sandwich

Even if the bum hasn't been homeless for long...you can still reward him for his funny.

my ex showed off beautiful little breasts with expressive nipples. couldn't help but notice and be charmed by them. on one slightly cold morning at 14th st. and 9th ave. a bum approached us to ask for change. he noticed (and was charmed by) her reaction to the brisk morning and reached into his pocket, then held up ten cents and asked: a dime for two nipples? all three of us laughed so hard we almost cried.

Carlos and Juan were panhandlers in Los Angelos. Carlos had a Mercedes Benz and plenty of money, while Juan was always scraping together pennies.
Each day Carlos would drop Juan off at an on-ramp and then drive on to the next one to set up shop. At the end of every day Carlos would have a briefcase full of $10 bills while Juan would have about $35 in change.
Juan asked Carlos one day, "How are you making so much money when I can't even make $50 in a day?" Carlos said, "I don't know, let me see your sign." Juan showed him a sign that said, "Homeless, need food for family."
Carlos said, "That's your problem right there, take a look at this." Carlos pulled out his sign and Juan read:
"All I need is $10 to get back to Mexico!"

I realy liked the guy who was honest about pot and the guy from the future.
I gotta be honest i spent a good 4 months homeless, notfun. one day i ended up stranded in a diffrent town, and in desperation walked to the Dunken dounoughts. I walk in and a cute girl was working. I told her that i havent eaten in 2 days (true) and ask for some stale donoughts or something. She hooks me up with food (good food) I thank her and flirt a little bit before i leave the store to go to the free motel room i had for the night. Well i bum a cig of some old dude in the parkinglot, who ends up bring over some beers. A few hours latter were outa beers and he is trying to find a way to scam up some beer money. Well his daughter gets off work (Guess who his daughter is) Dunken dougnoughts girl ends up buying us some more beer, we decided to use my free room because its bigger, DnD girl comments on how nice my room is and she wants to sleep their, i respond iv got two beds. she whispers "We wont need both of them" ohh it was on. Beyond the free cigarets, weed, and this story being homless sucks. Why did i get more free weed then food?
