View Full Version : Why I Hate Homeless People
joe went to high school with this guy, and they ran into each other on the internet or something one day, and the guy came over to hang out. then he told us this sob story about how he became homeless a little while back because his mom kicked him out and he went to live with his aunt but she ended up not having room for him. so we were like "well you can stay tonight, but it's not gonna be a regular thing or anything." well we were stupid. he left that night, but he came back once every week or two, stayed a night or two, and made himself more comfortable every time. we hated it, but we thought we'd be horrible people and go to hell if we denied him and put him on the streets. WELL! the asshole, the last time he was here, wrote down a bunch of our bank card numbers, and has since charged 3 different gay male porn subscriptions to our accounts! YIPPEE!! we'd beat his ass, but he's homeless AND gay AND black, so we'd go to jail for like a million different hate crimes that have nothing to do with it. and the fucker doesn't have a steady address, and he's also not in contact with us anymore (duh!), so we can't find him to charge his homo ass. I've never been manipulated like this before!! PEOPLE FUCKING SUCK!
now pity me and send me money. or help me come up with ideas to catch him!

Sounds like the guy has had a hard time in life. I don't mean to judge you, but it sounds to me like you and your Joe helped this guy for the wrong reasons. I'd maybe not help him to make my own life better but I'd maybe help him to try to improve his circumstance. As I do that, though, I'd be cautious and protect myself because some people do abuse that sort of goodness/kindness.
Then again, given that you said this next bit, I'm not at all sure if your post is serious. YIPPEE!! we'd beat his ass, but he's homeless AND gay AND black, so we'd go to jail for like a million different hate crimes that have nothing to do with it.
If you were serious, then maybe that guy is better off homeless in the streets. :confused:
I'd maybe not help him to make my own life better but I'd maybe help him to try to improve his circumstance.
honestly. how would it make my life better by letting some strange guy show up at my house at 1am and buzz my door for 30 minutes till we let him in, then let him stink up my couch so bad that i had to febreeze it 3 times before it smelled normal, then when he woke up the next morning i offered him cereal and he said "oh i'm not a cereal person really. do you have pancake mix?" (i mean HELLO, you're fucking homeless, don't turn down my cereal!), and give up my privacy while he's there... how exactly does this make MY life better??
OH! and ALSO on the last of the four nights he stayed before he disappeared, we allowed him to use long distance to call his uncle in texas because supposedly this guy was going to give him a bus ticket there to start his life over but he just needed to stay somewhere till then in case his uncle contacted him back, on this night i found out he was not even kicked out. he left his mom's house on his own freewill because he didn't get along with her boyfriend. so TECHNICALLY, he's not homeless, he's just a fucking scumbag mooch. but he makes my life better alright

I don't know--if I let someone into my house and life, I think I'd expect a lot of what you're mentioning and more maybe. I would try not to complain about it and if all of it bothered me this much, then I'd maybe have to wonder if I was ready to do the thing that I'm doing or trying to do.
hell no i was not ready to let some bum live off me! i will never be ready for that! fuck bums! i can't bring myself to throw a "friend" of my boyfriend out on the streets though. well, i couldn't, but i will never have a problem doing it again if he's ever stupid enough to bring someone in. we didn't once complain about him until this happened. all i asked was that the guy respected us and appreciated what we were doing for him, and don't fucking touch our bank cards and charge boyride.com subscriptions on there

it's tragic that he betrayed your trust and that this experience will prevent you from ever helping anyone else out.
i was homeless for a little while (14-16) and it can be a tough go. thankfully, some friends' (parents) took a chance with me and helped me get my shit together. 3 years later i was in a position to help someoe in similar situations.
the friend i was renting a house with wasn't as enthusiastic. we had a 3 bedroom house for 2 of us and i wanted to lend out the 3rd to a dood from school. my friend insisted that he wanted to make it into a hot tub room and that'd he'd pay 2/3 the rent. i really wanted to help this guy. he was staying under bridges and shit. i had a shed (heavy gauge steel) in the back yard that i offered to him. he jumped at the opportunity. we outifitted it with a small woodstove, double insulation, blankets and an alarm clock and he was good to go.
i felt it was the very least i could do. i was a little embarassed that, that's all i could offer. it was kinda cool to have a squatter on your property. i'd get home from work and see the smoke and know he was up, sometimes entertaining company.
to me it was small, necessary thing. to the dood i helped out, it was an important pivotal point in his life.
now that dood owns a house in the country and one in the city. he's a plant manager at a steel factory making nice coin, with a wife and 2 kids.
many years after he stayed in my shed, i'd run in to him here and there. he'd stealthily pick up my restaurant or bar tab. at a camping type weekend, hand me a cooler of beer and a carton of smokes and a handful o' bud. it was like he felt he had a debt to repay. i'd politely decline and insist it wasn't necessary, but he'd always win.
i didn't offer to help for any reason, other than i had the means to.

I'm just amused that you have decided it is his homelessness to blame for him charging gay pornography to your cards. Surely a thread saying "I hate gay people" would be more appropriate, given the nature of his fraud?

you know, I was really sympathetic about the homeless and I would always help (with food or water only). I know there are some out there that WANT to stay there, but that isn't everyone.
However, once while driving home I saw a man with a sign that said "I'm Hungry." I looked around my car for something I could give him and all I had was a bag of peanuts and a bottle of water. I knew it wasn't all that great, but it WAS food. I pulled over and started handing him the peanuts when he said "oh, peanuts? that's it?!" and started peering around my car for something else when he spotted the water. I handed him that, he took it, and he SHOVED THE PEANUTS BACK IN MY HANDS.
That left such a sour taste in my mouth :/

That left such a sour taste in my mouth :/I can understand why you'd have that reaction--it takes a lot of those sorts of situations to start to learn how to let that go. I just try to remember what I felt like at my most miserable point in life and then amplify that a whole bunch--that's what someone like your homeless guy feels like except there's no real end in sight for him. Hopelessness just bears out that kind of anger and despair. My knee-jerk reaction is to not get why he'd refuse the help I was giving but if I stop and think about it and think again before I react to him, it'll make a lot more sense. It takes a lot of practice. In the meantime, you can get that practice and help a whole lot of homeless people in the process. Win win. :)

Maybe he had a nut-allergy, and was worried about anaphallaxia? That would leave a sour taste in his mouth, due to CO2 and death both tasting pretty sour.

i don't really hate all homeless people. i just hate this guy. because as i said, he's not even really homeless (thought he smells like it!) he's just a big moocher to the max. i usually give beggars at corners a buck if i got it. i don't know why everyone takes everything written here so literal... i just needed a title for my thread. hey bob! remember that one homeless guy that i thought looked like you?! i wonder how he's doing.
oh, but i still will definitely never allow a person in my house unless it's someone i know very well.

i've always thought that if I was to become homeless, i would definitely steal a costco cart. they're like the cadillac of carts! spacious enough to carry all of your blankets and clothes you acquire over the years AND can be flipped over and covered to create a hobo mansion! surely all the other bums would be stricken with fear and awe by you, The King Of Bums, and would sacrifice their change and cigarettes to you

I don't think that most of you realize that taking advantage like what happened to Kate happens both ways. I've been on my own since I was 17 and still in high school. I have been in awful situations just trying to keep a roof over my head. I had a dump of an apartment and some stuff happened and I couldn't pay the rent so I was trying to sell my furniture. I found a guy in the yellow pages and he made me a deal and moved it all out. Then he came back later that night drunk and propositioned me saying how he knew how tough it could be for young girls with no one to look after them. Anyway, I got rid of him and filed a police report. But I still lost the apartment. So I lived out of my car for a couple of nights. Then I lived in an apartment house that belonged to my friend's stepmom and she would get me to do all kinds of work on the house and say that she'd give me next month's rent free, but then she'd have a sob story about her bills being due. Then she got me a job but she overdrew her checking account and came up with a reason that I had to quit the job that day so I would get paid early and sign the check over to her. Then she found my mother's phone number and started calling her saying that I never paid her and she would put me on the street if my mom didn't give her some money. Which my mom didn't pay, but believed anyway. Then I finally moved out of there into a tiny efficiency apartment and the landlord was a pervert and would walk in whenever he felt like it.....
Basically there are users in the world who will jump at any chance they get to take advantage of someone. It's not always the homeless ones or the poor ones, sometimes it's the other way around.

I dislike the homeless by choice whom tend to muddy with the ones who are down on their luck due to misfortunes. I live in a large city and I see the same people on the same corners begging for change. One of them looked familar to a co-worker of mine, and as it turns out he lived in her apartment complex. Obviously panhandling must be somewhat of a profitable venture otherwise I wouldnt see the same "needy" person on the street corner every single day for months on end.
A lady once asked me for money to get something to eat while I waited at a bus stop and I said I was debating getting something anyway at the nearby food court and asked if McDonalds was okay. She retorted 'nah I hate that place!' to which I replied 'well, beggars cant be choosers' and walked away.

Are you talking about homeless by choice as in homeless because I have a mental illness? Not really trying to pick on your post because there are lots of you with this attitude around here. And I've had people ask me for money in the streets even though they didn't look homeless or anything. Some people just have no self respect and beg even though they can provide for themselves. Hell, my neighbor used to send her kids to my door to ask for food every day.

I know what you mean, ba01. About two years ago, these two guys (I presume homeless, or at least nearly) were sitting on a low wall down my road and as I passed they asked me for "spare change to get something to eat." As it happened I had in my purse two really nice snack bars, so I said "I haven't got any change but I've got some cereal bars if you'd like them." And I could see by their expressions that they'd rather have had money, but the one guy siad, "uh, sure, I guess," so I gave them to them. They sort of grunted "thanks". As I walked away, I heard them laugh and I turned around just in time to see them throw the bars into the road, still wrapped in their packages. It really pissed me off. I'd rather they'd refused them, than just waste them like that, you know?
That's about the point where I decided I would rather just donate to organisations than to individuals, really.
