Today, a man came up to me at the bus stop. He went into this long story about how his girlfriend is pregnant and they both haven't eaten in days. Trying to be tough and funny I said back, "sounds like you should invest in condoms instead of food." He responded by beating and robbing me. FML

Hello Folks, I'm the OP. Because of the character limit I couldn't get in all the information so I just left the guts of it. The hobo that attacked me is a guy who's come up to me before and has had different stories. He's either: A vietnam vet (despite he's about 30), a broke composer, or the pregnant one. I finally had enough and decided to say something other than "Nope, no change". I don't care how malnourished anyone is, a swift kick in the nuts and you're going down on the ground. So I've now been beaten by the smelly hobo, The other people at the bus stop were helpful enough to sit there and watch me get beaten and robbed. I've reported it to the cops, so we'll see what happens. (Keep up the comments, they make me smile, even the rude one's who don't seem to notice their hypocrisy calling me a douche or a dick or whatever when all I did was pretty much the same thing. A hypocrite is a legless man who teaches track.)

You should have just gave him a couple bucks in the first place to buy food for him and his wife and child. But you decided to be a dick, so he took beat your ass. Do you really think a starving pregnant woman and her baby is worth joking about?

A legless man teaching track isn't hypocrisy, it's irony.

OP, as much as I like the fact that you were being blunt and honest, you seriously need to learn when it is and when it isn't appropriate to say such things. For that, and only that, you deserve what you got.

This is why you don't make sarcastic remarks to strangers.

why do people think reverse FMLs are funny??! and OP: I wouldn't have said it but I would have thought it. And definitely wouldn't have given him money.

Thats a reason why you should not talk with strangers at the streets.

What you said was right if they are breeding without being able to take care of the kid. I hope they give it up for adoption if they are financially unable to raise it. I go by the saying, "If ya can't feed 'em, don't breed 'em!" Also, you don't deserve getting robbed and assaulted either. Anyone who thinks people deserve something like that for a petty comment is an idiot.

Starving people often don't have the best sense of humor, understandably. Beating and robbing isn't justified, but this was no laughing matter either.

Wow, I'm surprised no one has mentioned the economy and the fact that there is an outrageous number of people out of work right now, that it is possible his story was true because of that. There really are people going hungry and it is not a laughing matter. A few years ago I would have never given money to a homeless person but now I hand over a buck when I can spare it. Have a heart.

Shouldn't have been disrespectful, but you were totally right. Next time, assess your opponent.

Well, you're right. Morons don't deserve your pocket change, especially in this economy.

Yes beating up someone for saying something rude means they deserve it. What are most people? 3?
