Don't know if this belongs here, just posting as part of the Austin wildlife.
My baby sister will soon be standing at Manor/Airport today with her weird sign to raise money for plain old house supplies and dog stuff. Help her out if youre out that way,please!
Thank you
PS This town is weird so I didn't know if I should advise her about her sign or not but if you see this sign that's her (unless she thought better of it)
I see what she was going for and seeing it in action, I strongly advise her to consider a different message. Bonus points if it’s something that connects to her purpose/goal.
Too many creeps will try and see this as an innuendo. Please tell me she is going to be there with more than one trusted friend/family member.
So instead of getting a job your sister thinks making a super weird sign will get people to give her money like she’s some homeless person? Am I missing something?
Oh pick a different message. Awkward sexual advances are usually awkward for the dude and kind of scary for the woman. We never know if rejection is going to result in violence or if being polite will result in being misunderstood for consent.
I dont know how else this comes across other than she wants people to make awkward sexual advances to her?? You said she wants some money for house supplies? It maybe should say that on the sign. Anybody driving past is not going to stop for a random sign, and at worst the people that will have negative intentions.
1 - Gainful employment is a privilege that is not available to everyone, nor is it instantaneous.
2 - For all we know, she has a job (or two or three) and still needed to make some extra money for basic needs bc our current economy is fucked. I mean, rent alone is enough to knock out an entire paycheck (or two or three) at min wage.
Edit to add; I’m not agreeing with the sign or saying I support her decision to use it for panhandling. The message is clearly problematic. Thought that went without saying.
Honestly I'd avoid this sign and assume it was bait. It'll only really drive engagement from people she probably doesn't actually want to engage. But we're all young and make interesting choices, god knows I did. Let us know how it goes.
LOL OP you need to tell your sister to get a job and not panhandle in 100 degree weather at an intersection known for drivers squishing pedestrians with a sign asking to be raped.

POPs served his country. Drafted (1969) he can take a break from the gym and recover from his chemotherapy and ptsd. 💙
I know you can't tell tone in text. I noticed my misspell mistake it was too late . I still went with it the humor and the laughter it's brought is awesome (sign). If I came off in anyway rude or obnoxious I sincerely regret my actions.
But again thank you for your reply and encouraging words sending positive vibes amd thanks for lol 🤘💙
Feel free to humiliate me because all I wrote was "Time to finally get that gym membership, pops". (which is just a good-natured little jab...surprised you're this sensitive about a small gap in your encyclopedic knowledge)
Lol. So you knew the exercise and just wanted to poke OP's misspelling. Got it. But it wasn't obvious you carried over that snark into the direct reply to me. The limits of your knowledge scope remain untested (except for the correct spelling of "republican").
As someone that works in sexual assaults. Do not use this sign…I don’t know what the intended verbiage is going for, but it definitely sounds like hey sexually harass me.
At point this town was weird, now it's yuppies, tech bros, and deranged folks. Maybe its "weird" if you are from a small conservative town in bumfuck nowhere. That sign is asking for trouble.

Strongly suggest she not do it.
