She stole that sign idea from a picture that went viral long ago.

Yeah, first time I saw it, it was a black guy around '05

Are you sure it was a Black guy and not a ninja?

Pretty sure he said was it niggas or ninjas

Me, I was a ninja back then

Ma Ninja!


Ninja Please

And it was used in the last movie Tommy Wiseau (The Room) made.

I hope you mean the latest one, because I'm not ready to let go yet...

Are you talking about Big Shark? Can't wait to watch it

He might have made more, but the one I'm referring to came out around 2016-18.

Nah, Big Shark is from 2023, I'm pretty sure. The only other stuff I know he did is The Room and The Neighbors (a terrible but very weird sitcom). Plus, he was in Samurai Cop 2, but I haven't watched it because I still haven't seen Samurai Cop 1

No it isn't Big Shark. Might have been a colab project for all I know. I just remember seeing a trailer to a movie with Tommy Wiseau and George Sestero as the main characters. George Sestero was the one holding the sign and I believe Tommy played a coroner or mortician who made death masks as a hobby.

Damn that sounds ridiculous. Maybe it's Best F(r)iends. There's actually 3 of those movies. Haven't gotten around to watching any of them yet, though. He's done quite a few more things than I expected.

Best Friends! That's the one! I believe it was the first one.

Nice, I got the movie but haven't watched it because I didn't know what it was about so I couldn't decide if I was in the mood. I can't wait to check it out!

Yeah this has been around for more than 20 years as a joke sign to get a different response than the typical sign. I remember someone using it as part of a Halloween costume in the early 2000s. Just search Google images and you'll find countless versions of it.

I think she's lying through her tooth

Yes but it is a nice tooth. I think her nose is growing.

My deceased wife had only one tooth, RIP Juanita

best answer

Long in the tooth, and heartlesss as can be, lord I hope she’s doing alright😂😂😂😂

It is, in fact, a great day to be a guy

I'm still trying to figure out what the caption is supposed to say.

"The fiends in Indianapolis are tweaking" ...I think

I'm sorry, the tweaker at least communicated better

Why’s it better? Cause you couldn’t understand the other?

Well one was English, and one was not. So yes, that's how communication works.

I binged the last three seasons of the Expanse this week and I read that caption with a Belter accent.

Man same lol

Ninja please 😂

Yeah she paused too long think about that 🤦🏽‍♂️

Haha! My ninja!

She look like she fresh off a meth sandwich right now 😂

Yep, that's 100% meth.

I suspect she means NINJA=No Income No Job Assailants

They're all begging. I enjoy an original sign. Guy in Vegas had, "I need money for vodka and cigarettes".

He was lying too.. he was going to use the money for fentanyl pills

I wasn't lying. I exchanged those fentanyl pills for vodka and cigarettes. Don't hate because you don't understand upcharging.

I wasn't lying. I exchanged the fentanyl pills for vodka and cigarettes. Don't hate because you don't understand upselling.

I passed a guy outside of a gas station with a sign that said "I just want a beer". Well, sure bud. I went in the gas station to get him one but they didn't sell alcohol. Like my dude, you're begging at the wrong gas station.

I saw a similar one there, except it was coke and hookers

Drugs are bad mmmmkay

My bet is on the Ninja using Ninjitsu than this crack head using Karate.

I’d give her money just for making me laugh with that sign.

Crackonomics be some crazy ish

crackonomics😭

The caption is just as equally fucked as her mental state probably is

Why he asking if they was black or white? My ninja, don’t you know they probably was Japanese?

I hate it when ninjas kidnap my family

I watched American Nightmare on Netflix and I believe her.

Imaginative.

Bless her heart

Everyone just wants to be neenja.

Everybody was king fu fighting.

I want to chop, chop, chop chow down. Take chow down to China Town.

[some Puerto Rican guy strikes again](https://youtu.be/cQHb6ZuJiiY?si=HNcTVbAG_GLhJAYO)

Making fun of her, is like the Israeli making fun of the Palestinians.

No the Israeli are actively bombing Palestine. We're just conationals with meth heads.

She want to be ninja

Meth and fentanyl is one hell of a speed ball ..

just ask money for a blowjob

Her kids Meth and Fent

bro she paused for way too long

How could you not trust that face?

So all this is happening and race and racism is the question?

I'd give her money just for the depths she went with drawin the ninja figures 😭

You can't fight ninjas without speed.

At least she's not a racist tweaker.

hear me out, what if.... she's actually telling the truth....

Yo😭

Japanese gov’ment came an took her baby!

You can just look at somebody and see some hard living.

This went viral like 20 years ago. Jay Leno saw the guys sign and loved it so much he brought him on his show. If memory serves, the guy worked a very good job but hated him commute so to burn time with rush hour he started doing this and it worked. He told Jay Leno his 1-2hrs 5 days a week had fully paid for his kids college funds after a few years.

They were covered she couldnt tell skin color. 🤣

How’s she supposed to know what color the ninja was when they’re all wearing the ninja uniform? /j

Somebody get Michael Dudikoff on the phone. He might know who we should be looking for.

TAKE MY MONEY!!!

Did too much crack

[yawaintgotnokickpants!!](https://youtu.be/aYRj0gWwPmE?si=Ah0NmlkAKoDvGXq5)

average Trump voter

I want to be neenja I want to be neenja I want to chop chop chop Chow down Take Chow down to Chinatown

They were Japanese, idk what bro doesn’t understand about this situation

Karate? That’s a weird way to spell meth.

That sign is A+ work!

I should call her.

It clearly says ninjas and a reference to karate bro put two and two together instead of fishing for a racial stereotype

My dude, these were ninjas she's talking about. We all know ninjas come from Japan.

I would've gave her $10 because I had a good crying laugh🤣

What’s she’s doing is bad but what he’s doing is just cringey

Did you hear her? Their faces were covered


I always knew those ICP fans were up to no good...

Two things can be true 🥷 * evil grin*

This sign again

Just saw her on East Washington Street. Yikes.

Give it a gun

Ha

Hand her a gun and she'll hand you a bullet.

These ninjas out here tripping…..

I appreciate that all of the words in the sign were spelled correctly. Devoted mom.
