Today, I went to buy lunch at a grocery store. The total was 3 pounds, and my card got rejected for insufficient funds. I fished about for change, and found I only had 2 pounds. A homeless man behind me in the queue then offered to give me the remaining pound. A homeless man paid my lunch. FML
I agree, your life sucks (29666) - you totally deserved it (9113)

(+20)OH MY GOD someone did a good deed for you and helped you pay for your lunch, and instead of being grateful you think your life is fucked?! haha! wow, just because the man is homeless?! shows how shallow, discriminatory, and ungrateful you are! you deserve to starve you uppity, shameless bitch :)
(0)I say YDI to the OP for using a card to pay for lunch.
Carry some money designated for lunch instead of thinking "Ill just swipe my Debit/Credit/whatever other card for lunch"
#51 - On 07/29/2009 at 3:52pm by Rouge_Plague
(+2)ya know i totally agree with the person above me... you should be happy that someone was kind enough to give you change, homeless or not.
#59 - On 07/29/2009 at 4:11pm by gtfwdr
(+2)#48 wins for the day...i'd say u deserved it, but u deserved to starve....if its so terrible to have a homeless man pay for your lunch, you should have just said no and gone hungry.
(0)ha. you suck. i actually thought you were talking about 3lbs of food.
#105 - On 07/29/2009 at 9:35pm by aaaaa12345
(0)This Woman sounds like the high school girl with a princess complex all grown up. Be thankful. This should be on MLIG.
#111 - On 07/29/2009 at 10:01pm by roboticfresca
(+2)OH MY GOD. ARE YOU SERIOUS?
A generous man offered to help you pay for something, and instead you go on fmylife.com and say how much your life is fucked up? And who the hell do you even know he was homeless?
(+1)Yeah - I agree with #48 - that man has next to nothing but is generous enough to give you money for your lunch. I wonder how many times you have walked past a homeless man and given him nothing despite having much more than him? I think this is such a sweet story. I hope you buy him many lunches in the future.
(0)I agree with you, up until the 'shameless bitch'
but everything else is pretty much on the money (no pun intended haha)
(0)Agreed. How is this a FML when he did do a good deed? You should be the homeless one if you think like that!!!!
(0)maybe instead of fmling this you should try to repay the homeless person somehow? thats a gmh. not an fml.
(0)I agree what a shallow thing to say. A kind generous man offered to help you pay for your lunch. He has next to nothing and thought you would have appreciated it instead of some well of person like you shouldnt go hungry. And here you are complaining that a "homeless" man paid for your lunch. Do you see people at the shelter complaining that a rich snob paid for their lunch ? No. They smiled and said thank you.
#185 - On 11/22/2009 at 12:17am by stupidfmlifers
(0)agreed # 48. Why cant you be happy that he paid for you? a homeless man to. He couldve spent that money on something useful but no, he paid your lunch. Atleast he was sweet enough to do that. YDI.
(+3)Agree with #2, you ate, didn't you? And YDI for not making sure you had enough.
"Today, some random guy that I don't even know was generous enough to help me pay for my lunch. FML"
Yeah, your life must be a travesty.
(0)I agree with everyone who said tht the op
should be thankful and not ashamed blah blah blah.... I say this should be GMH not FML. stupid fucktard with unfucked lifes don't give me hope, homeless ppl who give when they don't get give me hope
(+1)To be fair, at some points I have considered what it'd be like to just save up a bunch of money, sell all my stuff, and go homeless for a while, living only off the money I've saved up. The only problem is that I've gotten a bit too emotionally attached to all the stuff I have.
(0)Hm maybe. But this one probably was poor, because how else would the OP have known he was homeless?
(0)He could have had a large backpack and not been very well washed due to the fact that he has all his belongings on his back and no house to shower in.
#35 - On 07/29/2009 at 2:50pm by FreddyLunch
(0)Yeah, there's a guy who donated like $10 million to a public radio station, even though he was homeless.
(+2)I agree with 3. Last time I checked, a place to live is more expensive than a lunch. Maybe he can afford lunch (and maybe he's generous enough to help out even when he really couldn't), but can't afford a home.
I wish I could meet him. It makes me feel a lot better about people in general knowing that people exist with that kind of generosity.
#56 - On 07/29/2009 at 3:59pm by CrimsonImpact
(0)#10 wtf who would want to do that? OP you're kinda shallow if you think that way. But you're probably not being serious so I'm not voting FYL or YDI
#87 - On 07/29/2009 at 5:57pm by DeadMansCrack
(+1)I hate how people have to feel so high and might about it. It doesn't matter who gave you change.
#4 - On 07/29/2009 at 2:10pm by curryndricegirll
Ditto. Just be happy that you ate lunch. Jeez. I hope you said thank you.
#152 - On 07/30/2009 at 11:18am by rosalie_haostn
(+2)wait, wait, wait. Pounds? Your location is Norway. Krona, I think, is your currency? If I'm right, then this is a really badly done fake FML.
#13 - On 07/29/2009 at 2:20pm by IambecomeRAWR
(0)Yeah, they use Kroner over there. Either OP doesn't even know what currency she uses or this is fake.
(+1)Maybe the OP converted it for us. I would do that. It's a possibility.
#42 - On 07/29/2009 at 3:18pm by BirdieC
(+1)Maybe the OP is an exchange student in Norway. I'm living over seas at the moment and still say dollars instead of euro. Or maybe a Norwegian working in the UK, who posted this when they got back. Pretty dumb reason to call fake.
(0)Yes, its kroner(I still have a 200 bill right on my table after coming back from Norway). A krone is about 1/10 of a GB pound and no one can buy a lunch for 3 NOK neither in Norway, nor anywhere else in Europe, includin UK. But 3 GBP is quite OK price for supermarket lunch in UK (but a bit short for Norway).
OP is not so poor as she pretends if she could afford to go to Oslo - one of the most expensive cities in the world :))
(0)he just wants to get in your pants. hobos are players
#14 - On 07/29/2009 at 2:22pm by shewasalmost18
(-1)wow #13 you must have no life to know what currency everyone has FYL. aso OP your lunch was partialy paid for YDI you deserved to get a lunch no matter who paid so dont complaine
(my pic is temporary to prove a point plz dont mind it)
(0)Wow, you're an idiot. Being knowledgeable doesn't mean you don't have a life. In fact, it probably means you have more of a life, seeing as you've been around the world. Go back to the valley, bitch.
(0)youre a fuckin dumb piece of trash ever heard of googling the currency? and plus who the fuck doesnt know that most of europe uses euros and only britain uses pounds. so before you try to insult ppl and be a cumface think
(+1)Efff the homeless mans life... Yu prbly didn't offer anything in return. Did u rlly have to eat it? Shudda gave it back to him. Selfish hoe
(0)Well if he was in line to get something, then he already had the money to eat.
#23 - On 07/29/2009 at 2:30pm by Twidragon1000
(0)what he's saying is that that was probably part of his money to eat
#107 - On 07/29/2009 at 9:43pm by curryndricegirll
(0)What if she made an assumption that he was homeless, rather than a construction worker or something? It's not like when someone lends you a buck you inquire as to their status of wealth.
(0)I was thinking the same thing. tomorrow we'll see an FML, "Today, I gave money to this lady for lunch. She F***ed her life, because she thought I was homeless. I'm not. FML."
#76 - On 07/29/2009 at 4:56pm by curryndricegirll
Why is the status of this man lowered or elevated because of his homelessness. I think it was a nice thing that a nice man did. It doesn't matter if he is homeless. It just means, if he was, that he knows the value of people more than money. But I also think this is a message that people need to start doing more for people. People keep going on about how nice the homeless man is. Well are you guys going out and helping pay for lunches. If you aren't then you don't have the right to complain about how the OP is acting. Sure its stupid to judge someone, but its even stupider to judge someone, comment on a good deed and then do nothing.
#173 - On 08/11/2009 at 10:36am by LaceyPatrickson
(+1)I don't get why this is a FML. Your lunch was paid for; you didn't even have to *ask* for it, someone offered it out of kindness. Jesus, does your pride matter that much to you that accepting a pound from a homeless man is FML-worthy?
(0)The fact that he has no home doesn't imply he can't be nice to people. He had one pound, and you needed one. It's not terrible, it's incredibly great. The poor, sometimes, are the ones who give the most.
Would you have done the same thing?
#26 - On 07/29/2009 at 2:42pm by RataBlanca
(0)Well said #26! It was a really lovely gesture that he gave you the quid you needed... This really isn't an FML at all!
#29 - On 07/29/2009 at 2:45pm by jivealive_5
(+1)This is how I read this:
"Today, some guy was nice enough to help pay for my lunch when I found I didn't have enough cash on me. What a jerk. FML"
#30 - On 07/29/2009 at 2:48pm by Aerostella
(0)or "Today, I was humbled. FML." Well...actually, obviously not humbled since she posted it on here.
#77 - On 07/29/2009 at 4:59pm by curryndricegirll
(+1)It's sad how the poor are willing to give while the people with more money are not (not that you aren't willing to give). What goes around comes around.
#33 - On 07/29/2009 at 2:49pm by iFruit
(0)nah, I don't think she deserved the money. the hobo could have used it on someone or something better, since clearly it was a waste
#79 - On 07/29/2009 at 5:00pm by curryndricegirll
(0)hey, your life doesn't suck! a stranger was kind enough to pay for your lunch, and he was probably poor. i'd say you had a pretty good day.
what a sweet guy =)
(0)how is that an fml... what a generous person, giving something when you have nothing yourself is the most noble thing u can do
(0)How is this an FML? More like a Givesmehope.com moment... People complain about the weirdest stuff!
(0)And to think that so many people have pressed " I agree, your life sucks. " What a shame.
#186 - On 11/22/2009 at 12:18am by stupidfmlifers
(+1)thats really sweet.i would have given him my lunch.
#43 - On 07/29/2009 at 3:24pm by ChemiclyInsane
(+1)This belongs on mylifeisg, not fmylife. In fact, I believe there IS one on there like this.
Someone was sweet enough to pay for you! I've done it before, and nobody's ever made an FML about it. So much for being thankful..
#45 - On 07/29/2009 at 3:30pm by DameGreyWulf
(0)Homless dude hooked you up you owe him a pound and thanks or a blowjob.
#47 - On 07/29/2009 at 3:42pm by jpturnbull
(0)The homeless are worth more than the vast majority of people because they have no debt. So everything they have is 'worth'.
You really oughta post this on MyLifeIsBlessed.com
(+3)I really wanna kick you in your fucking throat. Someone, who you are no better than, helped you pay for your lunch. How the fuck is that a FML? Could you be more shallow and ungrateful?
(0)OP, never bite the hand that feeds you (literally in this case).
#80 - On 07/29/2009 at 5:02pm by curryndricegirll
(0)See that you repay the kindness to someone in need the next time the opportunity arises. Paying it forward is a great way create a little good and happiness in the world. Besides, how would you have felt in his position?
Once again: All those wanting to ride my ass about my comments- All Aboard! I have installed handrails!!
#53 - On 07/29/2009 at 3:55pm by flinkpamingo
(0)does this shout "fake" to anyone else?
and, if it's real, bitch, you should be grateful someone helped you, not pissed cause "a homeless guy" paid for your lunch. he didn't have to!
sheesh. people.
(0)BTW, I dont think OP means to be ungrateful, but think about it ppl. How fucked is your life if someone WHO IS BROKE is having to bail ur ass out?
(0)I'm glad I finally read a comment where someone understands where the OP was coming from. Doubt that he or she was meaning to come across as ungrateful... just embarrassed.
#66 - On 07/29/2009 at 4:27pm by KO2
(0)saze it doesnt matter that poor man probaly had no money but that money and he was sweet enough to give that money to her so big freakin deal lady someone was bein nice to u even though u think ur to good for all of them
#60 - On 07/29/2009 at 4:14pm by Hurleygal
(0)I think the OP understandably feels like shit that she couldn't even afford a $5 lunch and had to be bailed out by someone who is supposedly destitute. I don't think she thinks she is better than the homeless guy at all.
(0)Yeah thats what I was thinking. I'm pretty sure she thinks her life is fucked because she doesn't have money. "insufficient funds"
I don't think this is her being ungrateful at all. She's just using the fact that a homeless man, who we usually see as a symbol of no money, has more money than her. THAT'S why her life is fucked
Prudes.
(0)she also came off as pretty much saying that she thinks she's better than this homeless guy that bailed her out
#81 - On 07/29/2009 at 5:05pm by curryndricegirll
(0)Neither a FML or a YDI, you were lucky enough to have someone help you and bail you out of an embarrassing situation. I think it's incredibly sweet that someone who has so little is willing to share that small amount with a complete stranger. I hope you thanked him profusely.
#62 - On 07/29/2009 at 4:15pm by frootloopkicker
(0)it should have been like this..." Today i could not afford my lunch but i acutaly could instead of giving to the homeless i took from the homeless" everyone gasps " wat its not like hes not eatin for days" i agree with almost everyone this lady is a selfich hoe
#65 - On 07/29/2009 at 4:21pm by Hurleygal
(0)Insufficient funds on card? Check.
Insufficient cash in wallet? Check.
Too much wanton spending on useless crap prior to this incident? Almost certainly.
Perhaps you should consider hitting up the welfare bread lines, seeing as when you needed help to pay for a meal a homeless person had the wherewithal to assist you. Hopefully you had the common decency to blow him in an alley afterward.
(0)This shouldn't be posted on FML but on mylifeisg.com!
The guy was just being nice. Try to enjoy it, not complain, it's not that common.
(+1)FAKE!!! norway dosent use pounds the use the Norwegian Krone stupid if your going to post a fake about having a hobo giving you money atleast use the right currency for the country your fake accoun says your from
#75 - On 07/29/2009 at 4:51pm by Mylife_is_so_fd
(0)I agree with #61 - everyone is being really stupid. She's embarrassed, not ungrateful. In fact, she probably FEELS like she's being ungrateful or selfish because it's basically like she took money from a homeless man when she is probably better off.
Look at it this way: how would you feel if a homeless man paid for YOUR lunch? Grateful, sure, but wouldn't you feel a bit guilty?
OP - The man seems very nice, I hope you thanked him profusely.
But seriously, you couldn't have just gone back and got a cheaper lunch instead?
#82 - On 07/29/2009 at 5:08pm by redblueviolet
(0)How the hell is the FML?
Honestly, that's so nice of the homeless man to pay a part of your lunch.
Like I understand you'd be embarrassed, but for your to say Fuck My Life that a homeless man GAVE UP his money, not like he has a lot, to pay for your lunch.
I agree, this should be on MyLifeIG! A person you didn't even know helped you pay for your lunch. Let alone a homeless man who doesn't have much to begin with.
You shouldn't complain.
The homeless man should post,
"Today, I paid for a woman's lunch and she thinks HER life is fucked. I try and be nice and SHE complains. FML."
I at least hope you gave him a very big thank you and offered to pay him back.
(0)Sounds like you're on the wrong site...MyLifeIG would be better for this.
A homeless man/stranger helped pay for your lunch.
No need to say your life is fucked because a man was extremely nice to you.
(0)How is this a fucking FML?!? someone was kind enough to do you a favour, you unappreciating bastard >_>
#86 - On 07/29/2009 at 5:39pm by MadeOfAwesome
(0)More like a GMH (Gives Me Hope, Google it) than an FML, for sure! That's really sweet of him to pay for your lunch when he didn't even know you. I wouldn't say your life is fucked when you have a lunch to eat, nor would I say YDI. This was a lame FML, but nice to read all the same.
#90 - On 07/29/2009 at 6:16pm by soniferous
(0)Well, stop feeling bad for yourself and do a good deed.
#91 - On 07/29/2009 at 6:31pm by bethechange
(0)How could you let him?
Why would you take money from a homeless person?
I would've gone without my lunch.
#92 - On 07/29/2009 at 6:34pm by f0rg3t_m3_n0t
(+1)Did you at least share your lunch with him? If you didn't, then you should feel even more guilty.
(0)This is NOT an FML. This should be on givesmehope.com
It's ridiculous for you to be down about someone having nearly nothing lending you a hand.
You don't deserve it - you should've gone without lunch.
F the HOMELESS MAN'S life for giving soemthign meaningful to him to someone who wasn't even grateful.
laaaaaaaaaaaame.
(0)I think that homeless man was very nice giving what little money he had to help you, I hope you gave something back
(0)You don't even know if that man is homeless, you're just assuming to make the FML sound better. So stupid. He could just be a man a nice man who dresses a little different.
#97 - On 07/29/2009 at 7:35pm by Shhh_Catsicles
(0)why are you such a bitch? sorry, but the homeless man was HELPING you. thats not an FML, this is a GMH. you need to learn to appreciate the good people in this world.
#98 - On 07/29/2009 at 7:56pm by fatema_is_effed
(0)That man is a wonderful testament to the goodness of humanity. I agree--this story should be on givesmehope.com. I highly recommend that you check out the site.
#101 - On 07/29/2009 at 8:51pm by protectivesister
You should seriously be grateful that anyone would pay for the rest of your lunch especially a homeless person. I mean seriously this isn't a FML, you're just a whiney person.
#109 - On 07/29/2009 at 9:51pm by 2Chances2Fail
(0)This makes me feel really good, regardless of the harsh and stupid comments by others. There is hope for the world if a homeless man is willing to give up a pound to help out someone who has a house when day after day, people reject them and refuse to help them. I love it when it shows just how many good people there are out there.
(0)that is one of the nicest things i've ever heard. you should be grateful, not resentful. you're life doesn't suck at all. if anything, that should've give you even the slightest bit of hope for humanity. if someone who has nothing offers to give you what they have then that is awesome. why would you complain about that?
#112 - On 07/29/2009 at 10:32pm by yesmy_love

#113 - On 07/29/2009 at 10:33pm by kinnelonfire75
(0)I have YET to read a decent comment that shows SOMEONE understands what the OP is talking about. But you are just too quick to assume things. THINK, PEOPLE! The OP isn't being ungrateful, he's just talking about the IRONY of the situation! How embarassing or strange would it be to have someone who's A LOT POORER than you bail you out!?!?!?!
Sheesh. People on this site. RME.
#116 - On 07/29/2009 at 10:58pm by xxXChiiXxx

#118 - On 07/29/2009 at 11:04pm by oh_lol_ownage
(0)people don't know what the OP is talking about. she isn't ungrateful but embarrassed because someone else had to pay for something so simple. that person just happened to be homeless which might make it seem a little bit worse. i'm sure she thanked the man.
#120 - On 07/30/2009 at 12:06am by ohhhh_Ashley
(0)Wow, it's kinda nice to see that kind of generosity. They probably didn't have that much money. Strangers giving you change all the time would probably effect your views on things quite a bit, though.
#121 - On 07/30/2009 at 12:11am by DoctorDoomed
(0)You need to suck up your pride and get on with it. This was a nice deed done by someone who is way less fortunate than you and you're saying YOUR life is bad? Give me a break if this guy was able 2 afford a computer he'd be on here everyday posting new stuff but NO. You have 2 live in your comfort AND complain about it. Congrats. Your an ass.
#122 - On 07/30/2009 at 12:23am by guitardude777

3., how the fuck do you know he was homless did he f***ing say im a f***ing hobo heres a spare pound thats usless because were in f***king norway and we use the kroner
4. even if she is a f***ing exchange student it only takes about a day to pick up on the name of the currency your using ive been to europe after the first hour or two there i said euro insted of dollar its not a hard f***ing concept dumba$$
5. IN MOTHERF***ING SUMMARY THIS LAME FML THAT ISENT EVEN AN FML IS A F***ING FAKE
#131 - On 07/30/2009 at 1:38am by Mylife_is_so_fd
(0)1.) I read it as the OP had mismanaged money and was embarrassed. Then
2.) humbled/conflicted when someone more in need helped pay for lunch. Likely,
3.) it felt awkward & undeserving to even be in that situation, and overall - again, just
4.) an embarrassment to accept money from someone who technically needs it more.
(0)this is realy messed up
you should be GRATEFULL, he could have used it for himself but wanted to help someone else and just because he has nowhere to live your ashamed to get help from him. thats frustrating, people shouldnt be so judgemental.
#136 - On 07/30/2009 at 2:39am by mandapanda93
(0)Hmmm, I can see how you were embarrassed, but you should appreciate the fact that someone else decided to help you. You would've been more embarrassed if the cashier had told you that you don't have enough and that you'd have to give up some food, right? Though he was homeless, that man was REALLY NICE to you!

Hi everyone, I'm the one who posted this.
First of all. Of course I thanked him! and of course I could have gotten a cheaper lunch, I was going to in fact, but he offered, and insisted, so I accepted, and was very thankful. All of you who keep saying I'm a heartless bitch should have considered that I was commenting on the irony of it and that I was embarassed, instead of saying how my life sucked because someone was nice to me. I thought it was a funny story. I got the impression that many of the stories on this site are funny rather than tragic. I could of course have written he gave it to me and i was super thankful etc etc, but I thought that was kind of implied.
Oh and about the currency. My lunch was 31 kroner. But as I currently live and study in the UK, i'm used to thinking in pounds and thought that would be easier for the majority of FML readers. But apparently that makes me a fake, sorry guys!
And I do in fact give money to charity and homeless people. Not long ago I gave one man my last 8 pounds (this was in the UK), so he could buy a decent meal, figuring I would be OK until I got home 5 hours later.
So those of you who got the irony and embarassement, thanks!

(0)Oh and by the way? If you really need to bitch to people, why don't you comment on some of the other posts here on FML instead? The person who decided to throw rocks at a sleeping homeless person, for instance? I hope you can appreciate the fact that not everyone who writes FML means that their entire life is shit, or even the entire situation. For me, it was embarrassing, and funny in an ironic way. The rest of the situation is of course not something I would ever consider as something that "fucks" my life.

(0)Obviously it was your fault for letting your account go over the limit and not knowing that it was over. You were lucky. Much of the time, those that aren't as well off are the best type of people.
(0)How the fuck is this an FML? A HOMELESS guy helped you pay for your lunch, while he probably doesn't always have enough money to pay for his own. That was amazingly kind of him. You should appreciate it rather than be beyond snobby and bitch it. You disgust me.

(+1)Sounds like a very gracious man, homeless or not. If by some crazy chance you ever see him again, you should repay the favor and buy him lunch.

(+1)you sir, are a snobby, rude, selfish loser that needs to learn the definition of the word "Appreciate"
that teaches you a lesson, you should donate to homeless charities or something if your so rich
(0)This is a GMH, not an FML.
Whoever typed this thinking "my life sucks" is grossly misinformed, and those who let it through moderation are severely shallow. I pity you and your impassionate take on life. I pity your failure to see what actions from other people really translate out to. You should feel so lucky and appreciate that there are people (unlike yourself) that are willing to sacrifice important necessities in order to benefit other people.
Selfish.
(0)Any sensible man would have taken that pound and thank him profusely. Then next time when you go to eat there, buy the homeless man (providing he was there) lunch.
You're a fucking joke.
All I have to say to the OP is a resounding FUCK YOU!
(0)how is this a FML you should have been thankful. what a kind homeless man! you should have gone home, gotten some money, and bought him a nice big lunch.
im only 13 and i know this.
geez your such a bitch

(0)dude, Bums make a lot of money for doing nothing :/
If you can, it would be nice to try and repay him, but you are not obligated and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

(0)SOMEONE HO DOESN HAVE A HOME WAS NICE ENOUG TO HELP YOU PAY FOR YOUR LUNCH INSTEAD OF SAVE UP SO HE COULD HAVE A ROOF OVER HIS HEAD AND YOU COMPLAIN THAT YOUR LIFE IS FUCKED? I WANT TO LIGHT YOU ON FIRE AND PUSSH YOUOFF THE TALLEST CLIFF IN2 A POOL OF BLOOD INHABITED BY GREAT WHITE SHARKS YOU ARETHE MOST UNGRATEFULL SON A BITCH IVE EVER HEARD OF YOU ARE A DISGRAC TO THE HUMAN RACE
(0)I know I'm WAY after the fact on this one, but maybe the person wasn't homeless. You make the assumption because s/he was straggly looking and/or smelly, but chances are s/he's not THAT tight on money if s/he had a pound to spare. I mean, it's very kind in any case, but if this were a person who literally couldn't afford to feed, house, and clothe him/herself, I think she'd be saving that money for necessities.

(0)just playing devil's advocate here OP prob considers this an fml because she was forced to go to a homeless man for money, not saying wht she was right the guy prob did it in hopes for something in return

(0)YDI, for being ungrateful.
That homeless man doesn't have much, but at least he has generosity.

(0)wowww, what a jerk. you shouldn't have accepted money from that poor man. get less food or just skip the meal, maybe it'd make you more grateful for what you have.

(0)...Are you serious? You HAVE a home, but can't pay for lunch? AND a homeless person is waiting in line to "eat out"? AND you can still pay for Internet to post that comment? FRAWD
(0)WOW, A Fucking Homeless Man Helped You. How The Fuck Is You Life Fucked.
Your A Fucking Idiot. Have A Good Day Bitch.

(0)You're so ungrateful. Embarrassed or not, you seem to consider yourself superior to that homeless man. Having a home doesn't automatically boost your status.
