Beggers namely Kurwa boys in Poland

EXACTLY!!!!! Now you've got it. That is what you do. I always do it. I say; "that's funny, I was just about to ask you the same thing." It always disarms them, then just keep going about your business and ignore any further attempt to engage you.

I remember a while back in rynek, there was a punk that asked me if I had spare money for beer. I rewarded honesty that day.

While in Kraków on a two-week long bus tour, I wanted to go inside Kościół Mariacki (St. Mary's Cathedral. It was June 19, 1999. But there was a stretch limo waiting in front- so I knew there was a wedding going on, and I held back. Just before the bride and groom were to exit the church, a beggar goes by the door and holds his hand out. The bride and groom quickly passed him by and headed for the limo. The beggar didn't get anything that time.

on vacation in Barbados, there was this group of locals hiding in the bushes by the inn's parking lot. One guy in particular would jump out when I was coming home at night, trying to sell me weed. After couple days of this, I offered him some money if he promised that him and his buddies will stop scaring the beejezus out of me for the rest of my stay there. Everybody said I should complain, call cops, giving money would only make it worse... But it worked! I think it cost me $10. The guy sent an incredible artist so see me too, that was nice. So sometimes paying a little protection works, but the terms have to be worked out beforehand (and assuming of course that we're not dealing with a complete retard, which unfortunately happens a lot too).

what a fascinating story

Do you have to be so spitefully malicious? :):):)

he wanted the bouquet?

or, better yet:

what if it was ... Jesus?

The alchoholics in Glasgow used to do that. Apparently they'd twigged folk would give them money 'for honesty'.

In Belfast I once had a Romanian Gypsy pester me for money. I told her i didn't have any and she kept on. Eventually I waved a plastic card and my cheque book at her, "See? No money!"

"I'll take a cheque," she said.

Merged: why some Poles are called kurwa boys?

?????

I don't know such term. Poles call them dresiarze (if I guessed what you mean correctly)
