It's Thursday!

Today, I went in the diner I always pass by and ordered a sandwich. When I asked how much it was, the waitress replied, "Don't worry, honey. We give free meals to the homeless on Thursdays." I was too ashamed to deny it, so I just said thank you and left. FML

At least you got free food. I would gladly be insulted to get food.

I'd be too busy stuffing my face with the free food to be bothered about people thinking I was a homeless person.

Hey, whatever. Free food. If it bugs you that much you should have said something but personally, I'd have gladly taken advantage of the situation. Again. FREE FOOD.

Hipsters and homeless are hard to tell apart.

I feels so bad for you if someone said that to me I'd think about it for a long time I'm sure you look fine on the bright side you got free food

This reminds me of a time a few years ago when I walked into an Auntie Anne's with my sister to get a snack when they woman behind the counter asked,"Iraq or Afghanistan?" because of the shirt I was wearing. My dad had sent it to me during one of his deployments, and I am always told I look young for my age. (At 21 I can still pass for being 15.) Anyway, I misunderstood/misheard her questions and said, "Iraq." I thought she was asking where my dad was sent, but she was actually talking about ME. She shook my hand at the counter in front of other customers because she thought that I was the one that served overseas. I was only 16 at the time and didn't quite know how to respond to that. I was too embarrassed to correct her, so I got my food and walked out of the store. I still feel awkward even now.

I understand about being older then you look I'm 35 and people think I'm a teen lol

As much of a shot to the pride that is, it is a pretty awesome story.

Reading all these comments makes me lose faith in humanity. No integrity, self respect or honor. "I don't deserve anything but I'll take all the free handouts and complain when I can't get something for free" welfare mentality.

For someone who just lost their faith, you're rather preachy.

The same thing happened to one of the guys from Duck Dynasty. He got turned out of a hotel in New York because of the way he dresses/looks. This probably just means you have a rockin' beard.

I just realized that the poster is a woman. I feel -really- stupid right now.
