I found this amusing, and I hope you do, too.

It is interesting to read that those folks are calling it "aggressive begging." It is interesting how we can do this with our English language by adding an adjective before a noun. That is what I find amusing with someone coming up with a name defining what those folks were doing.

After googling on "aggressive begging", those words have been used for many years. I thought you all would get a kick out of reading some cartoons on this very issue:
