Here's a dumb cartoon I drew on a Jobster post-it note, based on "The Giving Tree" by Shel Silverstein, about a boy who asks everything of this tree, which the tree happily obliges. (If you haven't read it: http://oldpoetry.com/opoem/60911-Sheldon-Allan-Silverstein-The-Giving-Tree)
It was inspired from last weekend, when I was discussing with a lady at the bus stop about giving the homeless my change. She said she once bought a meal for a pan-handler, only to have the guy place the meal on the ground, ignore it, and then resume asking for money.
Other than being a social commentary, I think the cartoon makes me laugh because of the stunned child's face as the tree tells him off.
