Oh I wish I’d have thought of this. It’s just perfect. The bum’s hand.
MarquisdeJolie- please clarify any inaccuracies portrayed in this video. (He used to be homeless and has instructional videos on how to pick a good shopping cart).
Patton Oswalt, one of my absolute favorite comedians, rants about YouTube on this Comedy Central “Root of All Evil” video excerpt. Good to know he’s watching. Hey, Patton… Forget the sneezing Panda bear. I think Farting in Public rival Citizen Kane.
Take it from the author of “Beyond Viral,” dear reader. Viral video is like fire. It can create a toasty fire or get people burned. Today we learned out the Times Square billboard hack video was part of the campaign for the film, Limitless. The deception was the brainchild of the viral-video maker “ThinkModo,” according…
I don’t often quote press releases, but this release by Vmatrix is quite accurate: Two hottest trends in online marketing – streaming video and video SEO – will take off in popularity in 2009.

New to online video. It’s “Evil Fist”… He’s got short (under 20 second) clips that showcase his evilness (and drinking problem that leads to depression). Here’s his profile on YouTube. He even has his own EvilFist website.
I was getting bummed about the landslide decline in WVFF readers. Then someone explained that it’s summer vacation. Yeah- that’s it. Summer vacation. Let me know when you’re back, eh? Are you back yet?

Hahaha! Ah, this reminds me of the good old days on the nickel. (“On the nickel” is street jargon for a skid row area of downtown Los Angeles where the shelter and food mission was….Fifth and Los Angeles Street)
“Shootin’ the squares” (shocking the homefuls by purposely trying to disgust them with our snot or whatever was at hand) was what some of us homeless people did for entertainment.
Is there a link to a story about you being homeless that I can read?
Same place as the WTF video…you might have to dig through my archives. I have a series written WHILE I was driving callgirls, WHILE I was homeless, WHILE I was living on and off in a crack motel, WHILE I was living in an RV behind a gas station and WHILE I was living in a homeless veterans shelter.
An overview: http://marquisdejolie.blogspot.com/2006/07/homeless-and-wired.html
Why do homeless people call people who have homes “homefuls.” How about hommies? How about homebos?
There is much antipathy towards homefuls from the homeless and for good reasons. The ‘full’ in ‘homeful’ has a connotation of ‘full of it’ We tried ‘homeshits’ and ‘homeasses’, but those monikers were just tacky. Homefuls were ALWAYS causing us trouble and pain. The LAST thing we would dream of calling them was ‘hommies’!
Do you know why homeless people are generally a little crazy? You try changing your mailing address every 72 hours forever and ever as required by law when you’re homeless.
Did you know that a homeless person can have his car impounded if he sleeps in it between 10 pm and 6 am in many Los Angeles suburbs? Did you know that YOUR car can be impounded if YOU sleep in it between 10 pm and 6 am in many Los Angeles suburbs? Did you know that it is a crime to be homeless, punishable by 40 hours of community service. Did you know that it is a crime to impersonate a homeless person in parts of L.A.?
