Those who work for tips are at the mercy of their customers. Sometimes, particularly during slumps in the economy, it pays to do whatever you possibly can to put the public in the mood to part with their hard-earned money. The people who made these signs for their tip jars are attempting to use humor to inspire generosity; it's probably the best approach.

And the dark-skined boy in the front row with the green-striped shirt didn't show up for photo#2, so he has to keep the first one.
Seriously, this makes me wonder who this is catering to: the little boy who lives in that wheelchair, or everybody else who would prefer to ignore the handicapped in our society and pretend that they don't exist. I thought the second picture might actually include the boy, in his chair, more centrally, rather than shoving him off to the side like in the first.
The first was definitely wrong. But is the second one right? I suppose it's nice to have a picture without the chair.
