He gestures toward "Stephen," a mopey, silicon-filled human form complete with scraggly blonde horsehair and thrift store clothes. A small motor allows him to wobble slowly back and forth, rotating a cardboard sign along the pivotal axis of his left wrist. Total cost: $8000.00.

"You just don't want people to know one way or another what's going on," Paul whispers. "Maybe Stephen's a teenage runaway down on his luck, maybe he's an animatronic robot I licensed from Chuck E. Cheese. People feel a little empathy and they chip in. That's the name of the game. He's practically my son. And wouldn't you know it, he's got a great job and he supports his family. Stephen cleans up big time."

Granted, a handful of dollars here and there may not seem like much for all the trouble Paul's gone through. But in six short months, he's installed fifteen hundred fake homeless people in major cities across the United States.

The daily net of Paul's invisible army averages close to $100,000. What it loses on weekends it more than makes up for during Thanksgiving and Christmas. Homeless Simulation Structures earn Paul well over three and a half million dollars a year, and every last coin is tax free.

I'm never giving them money again!

Not sure, but I am going to need one soon for my Carpooling.

Basic_man · 07-06-2004, 02:02 PM

must be fake

The fucked up thing - as I was reading Elli's thread about alleys in Vancouver I was thinking this would be a GREAT PhD thesis - Put out a realdoll with a plate and see how you do. Then change the signs around and see what wording is most effective and why.

definately fake look at the hands i don't think you'd be able to change them into that many positions lol

The word "hoaxes" in the URL kinda suggests something.

(I would find it hard to believe anyway that someone would throw $12m worth of animatronics onto the street and hope that no one realises and/or steals them)

TheLegacy · 07-06-2004, 02:08 PM

damn.. now I am going to have to poke them with a stick before kicking

Manowar · 07-06-2004, 02:11 PM

Bullllllllshit

Illicit · 07-06-2004, 02:15 PM

damn that rules... wish I thought of it...

Hmmm maybe I can run into one of them real dolls and sell it on ebay ?

stevecore · 07-06-2004, 02:19 PM

so fake... theres no way in hell that would happen. at one point someone will try to talk to him, see it's fake and just scoop up the money, barring that youre paying someone to watch over the real doll.

EviLGuY · 07-06-2004, 06:55 PM

It's so obviously fake its funny.

NoCarrier · 07-06-2004, 06:58 PM

Can the Homeless realdolls be used as food for Chinese Buffets?

sickkittens · 07-06-2004, 07:32 PM
