A funny prank where Steve tries to get strangers to sign ridiculous things. Very good for learning colloquial street language.

- Hi, I have a petition here if you wanna sign it.
- What is that?
- It's just- like it say's blank... so you'll be just signing and I'll be filling in stuff later.
- I don't know what you're signing- what I'm signing.
- Well, you just need signing right here where it says "sign here" and then... you know...
- A petition for what?
- Aah, you know, I'ma just figure out later, I don't really know yet but I just know that... I wanna
- No, I can't do that. I should know what I'm signing.
- You wanna sign a petition to help out the poor? I hereby transfer all my money to Steve...
- No.
- Ok.
- Unless you're gonna transfer it back to me.
- Oh, well, you- we- we can try that and see what happens.
- Hey, do you guys like dogs?
- Yes.
- Cool, you wanna sign a petition about how dogs are real cool and stuff? Just says they're real neat. Please, sign it. Awesome. (we got one)

- You think so?
- Yeah, I think I would've still signed it.
- Dogs are real neat and cool.
- Yeah, they are.
- Ok.
- We have a petition to legalize it, if you wanna get it legalized?
- Legalize what?
- Polygamy. You know, we don't think people should be limited to like having one wife. They can have as many as they want.
- No, not in my book.
- Hey, do you like petitions? I have a petition. We want to legalize polygamy. Cool. Thank you. Good luck with your wives.

- Hi Steve.
- Oh, you know.
- Nice try.
- Hey, blame the guy for trying.
- If you're tired of people with petitions, I gotta petition to outlaw petitions. If- so-
- Well, that's redundant.
- Do you wanna sign a petition? or... Can I have a french fry?
- Sure.
- You've one french fry?
- Here you go, man.
- Oh, hey man, thanks. Cool. 
I've got some french fries from that cool dude. Yeah.

WANNA=(coll.) Want to.

LIKE= (coll.) It means "more or less; a bit" (e.g. it's like windy today), but it is very often used as a conversation filler, just to give you an extra second to think what you're going to say next, and then it means nothing (e.g. his name is like John Peterson). You can hear it used a lot here with that no-meaning.

BLANK= A blank piece of paper has nothing on it.

STUFF= (coll) Things.

YOU KNOW...= (conversational) We use this phrase a lot as a conversational filler, just to give us a couple of extra seconds to think what we're going to say (e.g. My wife is, you know, from a small town).
