big issue
A couple of years in Brighton town center near the clock tower their was a particulary obnoxious big issue seller. Instead of the usual"Big issue! Help the homeless!" to attract the punters it was more a case of "oi blue shirt " "oi old man" "oi tubby!"and so on .As i walked past he called out "oi ginge" .
(this pissed me off) So i slowed and said to him "Sorry im in a rush"
"So where ya off too thats SOOOOOOOOOO important then?"

Looking him straight in the eye " Somewhere you cant go ....... home!"
Que his jaw dropping and flapping and a lot of laughing from people waiting to cross the road.

Yup, I'm not rising to that one. I can smell the troll sweat from here.

I seem to have the opposite where I live.
The Big Issue man sits on a little stool by the Marks and Sparks door and opens it for whoever is going through. Never asks for you to buy. Just very gentlemanly. So of course I try to buy them now and he always checks to make sure I'm not getting one I've already got. He's lovely.

Makes a change from the Paisley guy who had repeated Big Issue so much that he just groaned "biiiiiissuepeeee!" at people.
