Show them some EXCELLENT Kickstarter projects just begging for some funding -- play into their desire for cool stuff AND their sense of noblesse oblige. Then you get a twofer: they use their disposable income to fund projects that will benefit you. That explicit sense that you'll benefit directly should suppress your laughter until you get into the car and head home. Then? Laugh all the way to whichever bank you choose.

I’m with countrydoc, maniacal laughter would be the end product of any attempt at the proposed strategy.

I would try your proposed strategy, but I think I would start giggling about halfway through with a quick transition to maniacal laughter. But that’s just me.
