On my train I always get the "Its show time!" people. They are so damn annoying.

all my coins would be going to the cutie asking for money at the end

No they're making fun of the rich first of all. Second of all, you must not understand the annoying panhandlers on the subway. Instead of trying to get some sort of job, all they do is scream through the train for money ALL THE TIME.

NYC (plus the USA Government) has countless of programs to help the poor. The city actually discourage this begging and tells people not to give money to them. Begging for money on the train or on the streets is usually for drugs use.

Anyway this was so funny. I live in NYC and this happens a lot on the train… except for the comedy act.
