Getting costed in public


whats your standpoint on this?

Generally if a random asks me for some bus fair money or a ciggarrette i tell them no unless im in a good mood or i believe their story is just (towards currency obviously). i only allow myself to get costed when ive got a load of loose change on me and for the sake of descreasing the weight of the wallet give it away to charity tins some stores have on the counter. but if its a salesman of some sort then its an obvious and definitive fuck off on the spot.

asking cos i reckoned the other day that the continuous increase in the price of ciggarettes will cause people to become less lenient towards giving away a freebie and in by doing so, cause peeps to get more upset and pissed off when they get refused because it'll happen more often. and often these scavengers have god knows what pumping through their veins and could turn agressive or even violent any moment. dont mean to digress from the topic but its a tax on peoples availble safety on top the government tax which im sure their swimming in.

yeah its hard sometimes, cos they come out of nowhere and give you no time to think. My nature is good (for them) I give them a 2 or 1 dollar coin. I dunno, I get they are being scabs and dont work and stuff but you lose dignity asking for change and whether they are broke or not if they are in the position that they feel they need to do that then they probably do need the cash.

I give more often that not, but it's a whimsical thing with who I choose. I guess I don't think about it, but if I feel threatened at all I say no and move on. I make the effort to buy the Big Issue, and always "tip" the seller.

It was different in Europe especially Scotland and Ireland, there was a lot of people out on the streets, and it made you become indifferent about it a bit. I can walk through Perth city during the day for a few hours and maybe get asked maximum twice. Plus a few Big Issue sellers promoting their wares in the usual spots, and maybe one or two silent beggers with the signs I guess.

It's sad, whatever the circumstances that have brought them to that point, it's still sad.

I have been known to give money to dudes who have straight up told me it's to score.

At least they're not lying to me.

Imagine if the cunt was lying and was really gonna buy a hamburger with it. He'd have fuckin' showed me!

rarely/practically never do I give my cash to deadbeat fucks, if you do you should probably just paypal me some fucking money while you're at it ffs

I've spent years living in Paris and those cunts on the Metro take it to another level. Mind you they have to compete with armchair philosophers, Algerian terrorists and cunts playing accordions so this 'hey gimme a dollar' shit don't fly.

Last time I gave a derelict any money was in 2006 when I was in New York. This homeless fuck asked me for money for food and I offered him a cigarette and he declined saying he had health problems, diabetes etc. Anyway we shot the shit about whatever (probably Zidane's headbutt cos that shit ruled summer 2006) and I offered him a chocolate bar I had and he said 'nah man, diabetes' so in the end I gave him a few bucks because at least he was consistent in his story for a good 10-15 minutes

Send me your paypal deets and next time someone asks me for some change I will say "nah no money, ay" and then I will send it to you.

theres a crew of professional homeless dudes who do a loop every day of CBD up to carlton and back. one bloke with a big scraggly beard and army jacket and then his minions or whatever. been doing it for well over a decade, probably make enough money to get by. used to give coins, only occasionally now, never when someone asks.

hahaha

now don't get me wrong I try and do things for charities and worthwhile causes including the homeless. I donate old books/records/whatever to different charities and often buy stuff from them

in fact just now I picked up David Lee Roth's autobiography for just £1.25 which will keep me lolling for a week and no doubt keep a family of boogers fed for a month, which I believe is a win/win situation

but giving money to dudes on the street doesn't help in the long run, ask anyone who works for Shelter or whatever the fuck

If it looks like they need it.. sure. Karmas a bitch, don't want her ugly side on my back. Hate the donation tin peoples or raffle ticket selling flicks who stare u down or try to intimidate me into donating/purchasing goods.



just shoosh, all of you.. 99% of the time you ARE wrong.
