Today, I carried flat-packed boxes home from work to move my things into a new apartment. Whilst walking down the street, the wind kept blowing and spinning me round. A crowd eventually gathered, mistaking me for a street performer. Nobody helped or even threw me any loose change. FML

*throws a quarteT.*
To add a lot of suspense to this whole performance in a crescendo. Plus it's universal unlike quarters!
Fixed.

18 - You should ask 12 for his secret. I'm impressed that an entire quartet was able to be thrown! I'm barely strong enough to throw a tantrum :3

*Also throws Monster Munch and Cadburry Creme Eggs.* You should feel honored, OP. Those are sine if favorite British foods, and I'm greedy.

Monster munch and Cadbury cream eggs? You are aware the companies that invented and made them aren't British? And how random that you think of those.

I guess you were entertaining enough to attract attention, but good enough to provide a decent show to get people to pay you. Step up your game, OP, or you'll never make it in the business!

They were mesmerised(sp?) by your movements. Keep on swaying!

That sounds like the weirdest performance/audience I've heard of in a while.
I mean, if you like seeing a guy spin around with boxes, more power to you, guys...

It was the hips and OP's look of despair that drew the sharks in

Yea you've really got to sell it, OP. If you want that money you're gonna have to scream and pretend to drop things ad stuff, and don't be afraid to feign perilous situations and bodily harm.

It wasn't good enough for them to part with some change

They were probably just so mesmerized by your performance that they couldn't take their eyes away to look for spare change.

You need to put a hat or a guitar case out to collect tips.
You can't expect the general public to stuff bills in your G-string on the street.
Next time you walk out on the street with boxes on a blowy day, strip down to a bikini and you'll earn your rent in about 20 minutes ;)

That's when you start breakdancing! Spinning in the wind doesn't earn my $1 but spinning on your back does! (:
