Today, while walking to work, I saw a homeless guy with a funny "NEED MONEY 4 BOOZE" sign, so I gave him a few spare dollars for his humor. On my way back home, he was out cold on the sidewalk with several empty bottles beside him. Whoops. FML

He told you. But good on you for giving to the needy

You're a bit naive, be careful who you give your money to.

hey, if that's what he wants to spend money given to him on, that's his choice. and, like mostly everyone else is saying, at least he's being honest about it. who even knows how many homeless people out there say they want money for one thing and then spend it on booze? also, pretty sure a sign like that would not be a joke.

Uh.... what did you expect? Besides, homelessness is boring, scary and cold. Chances are that booze made his evening/night a hell of a lot more bearable.

Um... more like **** his life, his life is a lot worse than yours.

The "homeless" on the streets are almost always a scam. If they really need help with food stability they will take their ass to a shelter or food bank.

these are the types of homeless people who complain about being homeless and say the government should be giving them money but every time the get money they waste it on drugs and alcohol instead of making an effort to save it and buy actual food and get back on their feet
