    This has now happened 4 times to me.

    I went to Wal-Mart to pick up a black 3-ring binder for class. I was in and out as fast as possible. It was nearly a flawless trip. I didn't talk to a single person (thank you, self-checkout!) and I didn't make eye contact or smile at anyone. I was 10 feet from my car when I heard someone saying, "Excuse me, excuse me, sir!" I thought maybe I had forgotten something, so I decided to stop and turn around.

    I saw an emaciated black girl, about my age, and shaking violently. Immediately I assumed she was a drug addict or something. She told me an obviously rehearsed sob story about how she was stranded in that parking lot because her ride didn't pick her up, and she just moved to town a few months ago and doesn't know anybody else and needs money for a cab. Her voice was shaky and she was stuttering. At this point my only thought was whether it was cocaine or meth.

    So I basically tell her that I've now heard this exact same story 4 times now, 3 times in that very parking lot, and that I didn't believe her. She mumbled something like "Well why would I make up a story like that" at the exact same time that she turned around and walked away. I watched for a few seconds and saw her walk straight towards her next victim. I thought about going back inside and telling security, or just calling the cops myself, because I'm sure she would have tested positive for at least one drug, possibly several. But I decided it wasn't worth my time and went home.

    Dang these lowlifes. It's ridiculous. If a person were to keep a steady job and then waste all their money on drugs, then that would be perfectly acceptable to me. I really don't care, as long as it doesn't affect me in any way. But these deadbeats who go around with a bullscrap story begging for money just make me sick. Complete scum of the earth.

    Plus, she ruined my otherwise flawless trip.

    Discuss.

    I guess I never really care too much if a person just comes up asks and goes away oneway or another (money given or not) I mean it does not harm me to be asked a question and if they accept my answere and go on there way all is good.

    Why didn't you buy all the ring binders in one trip and save yourself some hassle?

    maybe they didn't have the trapperkeeper that he wanted in stock..
    I know when I go to Costco and buy a huge bulk of lube, I can't do that in one trip, it at least takes me 12 to 15...

    I see all these signs that streetfolk have and some of them are really funny. Most of them are harmless and don't bother me but I can't help but wonder about the exaggerated nature of some of the things the signs say. 'Will work for food', 'homeless 4 kids no money', 'kick me in the balls for a buck' etc.

    I once saw one that said 'need a beer'. It was honest. I gave the guy a 20. Cause, honestly honesty gets me and I understand the need.

    You're all dicks. Who the hell are you to pass judgement? How do you know these people are lying, much less on drugs?

    How the fuck can you consider yourself a decent human being when a good day for you includes absolutely zero eye contact? You think you're better than everyone else?

    We're all the fucking same. We all came out of our mothers, covered in blood and who knows what, and we'll all eentually end up in the ground, and between those two events, we're all trying to do what we can to do what we can. We all have moments of joy and moments of catastrophe, and even if that woman in the parking lot lied to you, who do you think you are to condemn her?

    Really, what makes you so much better than everyone else in the world?
