* Played for laughs in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBaDYHJDzO0 this]] ''WebVideo/DoorMonster'' sketch, where the recurring Extortionist Hobo character tries to get money out of Jefferey with a series of these. None of them are very good, including ones that say "Lost arms in war every bit helps" (he clearly has both arms), a single big dollar sign, and "Give $$ quick or this sign will explode!".
-->'''Jefferey:''' I don't think anyone would buy that. Plus, that's more like extortion, not begging.\\
'''Hobo:''' Oh, that reminds me!\\
''He pulls out a sign that says "Buy this sign for 20$"''\\
'''Jefferey:''' Because I said extortion?\\
'''Hobo:''' No, because you said nobody would by that.\\
''[{{Beat}}]''\\
'''Hobo:''' ''[points to a part of the sign that now says "Or I'll stab you"]'' And extortion.
