It's Saturday, It's sunny, so lets wheel out the retards
I've just come back from shopping in Cambridge, and today the city centre has been swamped by charity collecting 'tards in wheelchairs.
Do the sunshine coaches drop them off at 9am, put the brakes on the chair, stick a tin and a pad of stickers in their laps then come back to collect them when its dark.
I don't get it, why do charities feel that they are likely to raise more money by parading a handicap person in your face, than collecting with an able bodied person would?
I just think it's a little degrading, and makes me feel unconfortable.
Instead, I gave my money to a sensible looking RSPCA collecter who had no abused animals on display to prove his point.

The 'tards cant run away with the money, unlike that RSPCA guy who's probably buying drugs right know.

some lithuanian dude came up to me
what kind of music do you like, he said, blocking my path
soft rock mainly, i said
you might like this he said, thrusting a CD in front of me. It was made by buddhist monks he said, although that may have not been the exact words because by this time id lost interest
ah, i dont even have any money on me to buy the CD i said, suprisingly truthfully. Im just here for a job interview i said, shrugging and trying to look apologetic.
oh, thats fine, he said. But do you have even a few pennies to aid the production, he said, looking eastern european and poor
oh, its money you want, i can give you money, i said, rather dimly, reaching into my pocket. I pulled out some changed from my pocket. Two twenties, a ten glistened as i unclenched my fist - then to my dismay, a 2 pound coin appeared, stuck sideways between my fingers. Uh, i, i need this to get home i said, swiftly and apologetically pocketing the 2 pound coin. I dropped the change into his strangely coloured hand.
Thankyou very much he said.
No problem i said. Good luck with that, i said, and i took a step away.
Oh, can i give you just a little something, he said.
I turned around, worried.
Here, he said, opening his bag, and dropping a stick of rock-candy into my hand.
Oh, i said, smiling. Thankyou very much.
Then we both walked in opposite directions.

I avoided any chairty types today. However, Christians (who were atempting to "save Brixton") did approach me, as did a few people trying to sell drugs.
