i was walking along in a hurry and the big issue guy came upto me and i didn't know how much money i had so i said no, then he said "aww please" and i was shocked so i said "no, i have no money". then i felt rreally bad, oddly bad, i mean i had change when i checked, so i went back to look forr him to buy one but he was gone.
so tomorrrrow i will have to look forr him and get one.
end.

That feeling my freind is guilt.
I always stop, listen for 5 mins to a guy down town who plays a digeridoo.Hes such a cool guy to talk to.He's homeless so I always buy him some food or cigs.

Thats the thing though,people feel forced to buy it because of the guilt factor.
Damn these humanoid emotions.

it's always fun to pretend you're interested so that he thinks he'll get money from you, and after listening to him let's say 10 mins, you just go: "no thanks, not interested..." :)

It is pretty good. Their politics is too leftist for my tastes (although the fact that it encourages capitalism via self improvement through selling has a great ironic humour...), but it's a good read. Some of the people who sell it are really interesting.

I'd probably be more likely to give money to an organization like this, than to some random bum on the street begging.
