Dude was homeless and has some hard truth to tell.

- Homeless people eat like kings
- Literally every homeless person earns 100-200$ per day and spend it all on heroin, cigarettes, alcohol or pot.. except for the dude posting this. He's an accomplished musician and used his money to buy bus tickets to his family.
- No homeless person has been victim to domestic violence, they're lying for that sweet $$$. If they were really abused, wouldn't the police have been involved?????
- Less than a third of "vets" are liars, tricking old people into giving them fat stacks of cash
- Clothes grow on trees, mobile phones and phone bills are free
- Most "homeless" people actually choose to do it because it pays so loving well

Thanks, John Galt.

Girl: *shakes her hips as she approaches the counter*

Me: “Hi, [Girl]! How can I help you?”

Girl: *glancing at the guy while she seductively reaches in her pocket* “An apple juice. And make it fast!” *tosses a few coins at me*

Me: *I dodge the change flying towards my face then pick them up off the floor*

Girl: *laughs* “They are so cute when they struggle for money.”

Guy: *raises and eyebrow but says nothing*

Me: “Uh, sorry, but you need 50 more cents.”

Girl: *sighs dramatically* “No, I don’t. I think you are just wanting to put a little more cash in your pocket.”

Guy: *rolls his eyes and pinches the bridge of his nose*

Me: “They are $1.25 and you only gave me 75 cents. I just need…”

Girl: “Listen here, since you are so dense and have to work to get anything, I’ll go easy on you and give you a math lesson. Two quarters, two dimes, and a nickel equals to $1.25. Now, if you please, give me my apple juice.” *looks at guy* “I have to go to the gym later.”

(I should point out that we don’t have a gym in this town.)

Guy: *looks at the girl* “Okay, this is taking so long. Anyone with a grade school education knows that two quarters, two dimes, and a nickel is only 75 cents. Now, please, give her the money and get going. I’m in a hurry. And don’t throw it at her this time. She’s obviously way smarter than you and doesn’t need to take any crap from people like you.”

Girl: *nervously digs in her pocket for the rest of the change, lays it on the counter, receives her juice, and runs out*

(She never came back again and won’t even look at me in school!)

*seductively reaches in her pocket*

Which is why she's embarassed to the point of never looking at the cashier again at school.

He's being extremely hyperbolic, and generalizing in a big way, but the broad strokes of his story align with my own experiences. You only really go hungry if you couldn't make it to the various soup kitchens. Clothes were surprisingly easy to get, including shoes.

I don't have any experience with the panhandling/busking side of things, but there were a lot of day labor jobs that would send a guy with a van out to the shelters in the morning to pick up folks who want to make some money. Bagging phone books for distribution, holding signs on the side of the road, stuff like that.

And yeah, there's a lot of people who choose to be homeless. Usually those people are paranoid schizophrenics, though. Mental illness is VERY common among homeless populations.

People should try and speak to their children instead of emotionally abusing them.

Parent: Billy get your coat on we have to leave for your grandmother's!

Billy: No, I don't want to.

Parent:
When you were born you entered into the social contract which dictates you must obey your parents but in turn it means they protect and take care of you along with the rest of society. The social contract is the cornerstone of our very humanity and what raises us above the beasts of the field.

Billy: A bit melodramatic and I've never been a fan of Hobbes but nevertheless I shall attend to your wishes papa.

There are lots of 'homeless' kids hanging around places like San Diego. They actually have real places to live,but want the 'homeless experience' because gently caress You, Dad.

And there are a lot of people who hate rules set at home. Unreasonable rules, like no smoking/drinking/drugs in the house, no sex outside of your own bedroom, no bringing creepy guys around your little sisters.

Here in the desert, we get people who think they can disappear, which to a certain extent is true. A lot of them owe money to someone, so they simply go homeless to avoid the problem. No one tracks who turns in recycle, or gathers money at the offramp.

I remember people like that around the Drag at UT Austin, but kids like that are a small subset of the homeless population.

STDH probably typed with one hand posted:

Hi, throw away account here. This happened about 2 years ago. My wife (Lets call her Rachel) and I like to take a trip to Vegas at least once every couple of years. We don't gamble much but love going to the shows and attractions. That year, her sister (Lets call her Jody) went through a nasty divorce and was depressed for a long time. My wife wanted her to come along on our next Vegas trip. I agreed and had no problem. When we were younger (Met my wife in college), her sister would tag along quite often. Whether it was off to a party or on a day trip, Jody was always cool to be around. Even though they are twins, I absolutely have no interest in her. Jody is more of a "party girl",self-fish and vein (She has plastic boobs). My wife is sweet, all natural, kind and self-less.

Fast forward to our trip to Vegas. We were all sharing a room (Double beds). After spending 4 days in Vegas, our last night, we decided to hit the casino down stairs. Jody and my wife decided to get wasted. They sit at the bar pretty much the whole time while I was hitting the blackjack tables. I ended up losing $200 bucks and decided to stop (Yeah i'm cheap).

Feeling like a loser, I decided to join them at the bar. After a few beers and shots, I completely forgot about my losses at the blackjack table. My wife and I head up first. Jody was at the bar talking to some guy. We wished her luck and headed up to our room.

By this time it was 2am and we start to stumble our way up to our room. We were pretty hammered as I had no idea where our room was. Luckily my wife found our room. Next thing you know, i'm face down on the bed out cold.

A few moments later I awake in a dark room, drunk and horny. My wife was curled up against me. I didn't hear Jody come back and figured she was having fun with the bar guy. I thought it was a good time for sexy time. I start with my smooth moves by massaging my wifes back and taking off her panties. Shes definitely in the mood as her body is shifting and moaning. She starts to get into it by grabbing my junk. Thats all it took, and I was inside of her. I'm embarrassed to say but I only last about 2 minutes (Doesn't matter, had sex)

We cuddle and I start to fondle her boobs. I notice they were quite firm and almost balloon like. In my drunken state, I immediately froze. I realized I just hosed my wifes sister. About a few seconds later the lights turn on and my wife witnesses both myself and Jody naked. Shes screaming at the at the both of us. Jody wakes up and jumps out of bed. "What the gently caress is going on??" "Uh, umm, I didn't.. uh umm" I couldn't muster anything.

Whats worse is when Jody stands up, my "package of contents" starts to come out of her. My wife starts to cry and runs out the room. Jody walks to the bathroom to clean herself up.

I hurry to get my clothes on to try to catch my wife. My wife was in the lobby area bench sobbing. I try to talk to her but shes not hearing me. We eventually get back to the room. Jody tries to talk to my wife and shes not listening to her either. I end up sleeping on the floor.

The next day my wife is already up and packed. We head back home and she still doesn't say a word to me until we get to our house. She finally talks to me the next day and tells me she needs time to think about things and she packed her stuff and left for her parents house.

Fast forward to today, we are separated. Jody and I talked about the incident and I apologized to her. Me and her are cool. Even though we haven't talked since that night, she forgave me.

tl;dr - Went to Vegas with my and sister. In a drunken state, accidentally had sex with the sister. Getting divorce finalized soon.

I once read a story written by a cashier who saw a mother come through her line with a child throwing a fit for a candy bar. The mother bought the candy bar and then ate it right in front of her kid. I don't know if it was fictional but I want to believe.

ELECTRONICS STORE | HELSINKI, FINLAND | BAD BEHAVIOR, BIGOTRY
(A customer is buying a few items. Due to a misunderstanding that isn’t in any way my fault he almost ends up buying the wrong model of a popular phone. I apologize nonetheless and the matter is resolved. Since the misunderstanding he’s had a chip on his shoulder. He is watching me very closely and trying to catch me making a mistake. To his disgruntlement everything goes smoothly.)

Me: “…and there you go. Have a pleasant day.”

Customer: “Hmph… Boy, let me ask you a question. Where are you from?”

Me: “Helsinki.”

Customer: “No, no, no… I mean originally?”

Me: “Helsinki.”

Customer: “Stop being a smart a**! What country are you or your parents originally from?!”

(I’m a bit baffled by this question since I’m blond, have blue eyes, and a light skin. I look pretty much your stereotypical Finn.)

Me: “Finland… Um, what are you trying to ask exactly.”

Customer: “Look here, brat, stop playing this game with me! I know you immigrants like to think of yourselves as Finns, but you are not and never will be. Stop dodging my question and answer me! Where is your family from?!”

Me: “Sir, please calm yourself. I am not playing games. As far as I know my family has always lived in Finland. What makes you doubt—”

Customer: “Impossible! That just can’t be true.”

Me: “Well, sure if you are talking about the dawn of humanity; then everyone is from Africa, I guess. But my grandfather was actually a genealogy enthusiast, and he found out that our family has been living in Finland at least since the 17th century. That is pretty much as early as is possible to find any written records from Finland.”

Customer: “No, you are lying!”

Me: “Okay, look at me then. Where do you think I am from?”

Customer: “That is not for me to know but for you to tell me! I am a customer!”

(A coworker is standing at another counter with his back to us. He is of Chinese descent but was born in Finland. Only the back of his head is visible to us and he has dyed his hair blonde. He hasn´t heard my conversation with the customer.)

Customer: *shouting to my coworker* “Hey! You! Clerk over there!”

(My coworker turns to us a little surprised because of the shouting. The customer frowns as he sees my coworkers face.)

Customer: *mumbling to himself* “… Oh, god, another one.”

Coworker: “Yes, sir, can I help you?”

Customer: *pointing at me* “What country is this boy from?”

Coworker: “Umm… Finland.”

Customer: “NO! You lying son of a… Where are YOU from?!”

Coworker: “Born and raised in Helsinki.”

(The customer screams incoherently and slams his hand on the counter.)

Customer: “You are all liars, thieves, and tax dodging lazy immigrants who should never have been let into this country! I am reporting you to the consumer authority and immigration officials! This will not stand, mark my words!”

(He storms off.)

Coworker: “What was that about?”

Me: “I have absolutely no idea. A hidden camera show or an episode of The Twilight Zone are the only explanations I can think of.”

(Luckily we never heard from him again.)
