Dude no offense but why are you trying to buy weed from hobos? Aren't hobos homeless people or am I just crazy?
yes I understand pops is A hobo, but not the only one you associated with on that day or from the sounds of it many days
Yeah, he's really the only one I talk to... but he knows some others and he's introduced me to them but I just usually say hi and give them some change or food or a cigarette and move on.
Pops usually buys me beer and cigs but I've dealt weed with him a few times and he gets some good shit.
you know what's better than some change? a cut of 40 bucks. sorry bud but I'm certain pops fucked you and is just waiting for you to come back so he can hop on again.
it definitely isn't just you. Nobody with anysort of connection would. The only weed I've seen in possession of hobos is the bottom barrel of the ditch weed. I'm talking weed so shitty 13 yr olds wouldn't even pick it.
Oh my fucking god, you're exactly like Jared. POPS IS HOMELESS He couldn't give a shit about you, he wants food for himself because he fucked himself over in life being a dumbass like you and giving money away to people whose real name you don't even know. You must be reeeeeeally fucking stupid to not be able to process the fact that ANYONE can seem like a nice person. Not everyone IS a nice person. It's like talking to a door. You're a jackass.
jesus h christ, 10 pages of people telling this kid hes an idiot, which it sounds very much like he is but i dont know him irl so i cant judge, but still, dayum. Im sure we all could have summed up this thread in about 5 posts 1. I got ripped off 2. You're an idiot 3. Sorry I'm an idiot that trusts hoboes 4. Live and Learn 5. I'm still an idiot and plan to get ripped off in the future, so expect me to post about it like someone here's answer to what i should do will change. /thread
maybe you should do yourself a favor, and at least consider that he did. would it really be so hard for him to act really pissed that the other guy ripped you off? you really have some learning to do, man. listen to some of the people here. not to be patronizing, but you're only 15, a lot of us here have a little more life experience. don't be offended, just stop and think. DO NOT; 1) give someone money for weed, when you see no weed, or 2) give someone weed, when you see no money. neither can lead to good things, and being desperate is what tempts you. most of us giving you advice are able to give it cuz we've fucked up. i've gotten ripped off trying to get a 20 bag, ripped off for fronting crooked fucks weed, and ripped off trying to buy weight from a sketch-ball, ALL DUE TO MY OWN STUPIDITY. shame on me, i know. it sucks to admit it, but it's true. we gotta learn from our mistakes. maybe you should find someone better to "trust your life to" than "pops."
Yeah I've gotten ripped off too. I was riding through the projects at night and this dude came up to me and asked me what I wanted. I told him "$30 worth" and he came back with three $10 rocks. He thought I wanted crack. Then he told me I could give it back to the guy and come back later that night to get the weed. He gave me a bowl's worth to tide me over and I came back later that night and the dude was nowhere to be found. Of well. Live and learn.
You're right, we don't know him. You know him, and because you do you're now short $40. Get the picture?
You call Pops a hobo. Do you mean an homeless old wino? If so, for the life of me I can't understand why you hang around with this guy "downtown". Let me give you some grandfatherly advice. You're 15. You're still a kid. I'm not being mean. I was still a kid when I was 15 and when you get older you'll realize were/are too. As a kid, you're in no position to accurately judge people, which takes years even decades to learn to do. Here's my suggestion. Quit hanging out downtown with hobo's and giving your $ to sketchy petty criminals. Get together with 3 or 4 of your hanging-out-with-hobo's-downtown friends, deciede what you want to play and start a band. Doesn't matter what kind, garage rock, hip-hop, ska whatever. Get instruments and take lessons. In one month that's right ONE MONTH from now you guys could be playing tunes. Not very well, but getting there. Practice often and you'll be good enough to be the opening band at this coming New Years Eve party, and don't forget the band gets free beer & bud and the finest poonage.
I realize I'm still a kid but I've seen a have been through a lot of stuff, some stuff that most of you probably haven't gone through. I think I've seen enough to know to judge most people after I've known him for almost a year. and an fyi, I'm already in a band
