Just reposting the most amusing thing I saw this weekend (so far):

A little tableau from my derp blue neighborhood, from earlier today.

“Progressive”-Looking Lady is walking by “Homeless” Guy (i’m actually pretty sure he lives in a low income apartment building just a block away), and he asks her for money, “so I can get something to eat“.

She says she doesn’t have any money, then  points to a nearby pizzeria and says, “do you want me to get you a slice?” He says yes.  She starts to walk into the pizzeria.

“ and make sure it’s extra hot!” He shouts after her.  She nods.

“ and add on garlic, hot peppers and extra Parmesan!” he shouts.  “Uh, okay”, she says.

“ and make it two slices”, he shouts.  She nods.  Then she timidly suggest, “maybe you should just come in and order?“.

“ I’m not allowed in there, so you have to do it!” He says.  

You just can’t make this stuff up.
