In Pacific Beach there was a guy who had
"Need money for Beer and Sex"
I saw the same guy at the same corner a few weeks apart so I asked him one day, after giving him about $6 in change the day before, how he was able to be at the same spot day after day without getting hassled.
He said he had a permit from the county to "collect donations" and this was his "job".
Next time I saw him he smiled and waved so I flipped him off and ran the red light.
I hate bums...
