“Homeless tours”

[Misfit]

Seattle tour offers life as a homeless person, for $2,000 - Seattle's Big Blog

For $2,000, Momany says he will first transform a customer’s “look and persona into an anonymous homeless person.” Then he’ll take his customer to “favored homeless spots” in Pioneer Square and downtown, before checking into the hostel he stays in. The tour lasts three days.

“You might have enough chutzpah to try your hand at panhandling or sleeping on a park bench on this leg,” Momany’s site says. “You’ll get a real perspective on how the public perceives the homeless.”


“You will gain a new respect for the folks that find themselves in this predicament,” Real View Tours says of its “Course in Applied Homelessness.”

“You will see the seedier side of Seattle in a new light and have an experience that you will never forget. Embrace the Experience!”

What's crazy is that I believe people would willingly shell out 2K to do this.

With O'bummer in office, we'll all be living the "homeless experience" for free.

There should be some kind of app for that program, along with a government subsidy to offset the expense.

I can do the same thing for about 10 bucks.

Buy some crappy clothes that barely fit from the nearest consignment shop. Feel free to spend your entire ten bucks.

Hitchhike to Farragut Park. Find a park bench. Or just crash out in front of one of the metro station entrances. Spend the night where you land.

Next morning, ask people trying to go to work for spare change. Occasionally shout obscenities at people for ignoring you. If you work up two bucks, go to the 7-11 there and buy a chili dog. Feel free to dribble chili all over the front of your clothes.


Do this every day for a week. Sometimes you'll have evening entertainment when a guy with a megaphone starts informing the infidels that the Day of Reckoning is coming and unless some serious repenting happens, it won't be pretty.




Don't spend 2 thousand dollars. This way is more authentic, and you'll save yourself about $1990.00

Tox, sounds like you've really got the process nailed. Do you guide tours?

Sure. I have a special this month. $500 for a week sojourn.



This upgraded package will include the transportation to one of our Nation's Capital's fine parks (so you don't have to hitchhike). It also includes 3 chili dogs and 1 pickled egg a day, and a trip to Johnny Rocket's at the end of the week.

I'm in! Can I pee in the bushes right in front of oriental tourists any time I feel like it?

I'll give you a tour of O.D. B. Bill and Pr. Frederick for 10.00 a head. That's for back of PU truck, front seat is extra. I'll give you a loaf of bread to throw around on the tour.
