Today, I was riding on my bike when I saw a homeless guy holding a sign saying, "Need money, stranded from Oklahoma." I decided to be nice, and hopped off my bike to give him $2. He took the money, and then jacked my bike. FML

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

Today, I saw a homeless man on the corner, I thought I would be generous and give him some cash. I rolled down my window and waved my hand for him to come over. As he was walking over, he was struck by another car. FML

Today, I witnessed a homeless man fall off of his bike and land face first onto the pavement. Bleeding and shivering in the 40 degree weather, I gave him the coat off of my back. He got up like nothing happened and sprinted away with it. Oh yeah, my wallet was in the inside pocket. FML

Today, I gave a homeless man my last bit of spare change so he could get on the bus. Just as I was about to get on too, I realized I'd lost my bus card. I had to get off the bus and watch as the man waved at me through the window. FML

Today, trying to do a good deed, I gave a homeless guy a $10 bill. As I walked away, he yelled after me, "You fucking bitch!" FML

Today, I saw a homeless guy in the street. It really upset me how everyone's spirit of giving vanished as soon as Christmas was over, so I said fuck it and gave him about $50 worth of money. I barely made it 10 feet away, when another guy mugged him for the money I just gave. FML

Today, I was walking down the street, when a man behind me tapped me on the shoulder. He gave a $5 bill and said that he thought I had dropped it. Not having the integrity to turn him down, I took it. I spent the next 20 minutes being chased by a crazy hobo who claimed that it was his. FML

Today, I saw a bike locked to a short bollard, making it very easy to steal. Being as nice as I am, I stayed, hoping the owner would come soon and no one else would take it. Then the guy who bullied me in highschool showed up, asked me what I was doing, laughed at me, took the bike, and left. FML

He must have thought you were donating it for his trip back to Oklahoma.

$2.00 in this economy? No wonder he stole your bike.

Its doesn't pay to be nice to people. Nice people are hard to find, and the nice ones turns mean as soon as bad ones tainted them. For every one nice guy, there's a 100 bad ones. Don't let go of your kindness, because that's your salvation from being a unhappy person. If you really want to help others volunteer time NOT MONEY, too dangerous these days and lots of scammers. If you not a people person try helping out in animal shelters or reservations, that would be more meaningful.

Most homeless people don't eat, how the hell did he take your bike

I would hate to get my bike stolen... but I hope that he used it to help get home and didn't just sell it at the nearest pawn shop. If I had to go across the country, I'd much rather do it on a bike rather than walking... and you would know it was put to good use!

Good for you for going out of your way and giving him the money. Sorry about your bike. :/

I've actually been homeless. Many of the homeless people I've met when I was in a shelter use and abuse people, smoke weed, or get someone to illegally exchange their food stamps for real cash. Some of them I feel bad for, the majority... Not so much anymore.
