Today, a man came up to me at the bus stop. He went into this long story about how his girlfriend is pregnant and they both haven't eaten in days. Trying to be tough and funny I said back, "sounds like you should invest in condoms instead of food." He responded by beating and robbing me. FML

beatenbyabum tells us more.

Hello Folks, I'm the OP. Because of the character limit I couldn't get in all the information so I just left the guts of it. The hobo that attacked me is a guy who's come up to me before and has had different stories. He's either: A vietnam vet (despite he's about 30), a broke composer, or the pregnant one. I finally had enough and decided to say something other than "Nope, no change". I don't care how malnourished anyone is, a swift kick in the nuts and you're going down on the ground. So I've now been beaten by the smelly hobo, The other people at the bus stop were helpful enough to sit there and watch me get beaten and robbed. I've reported it to the cops, so we'll see what happens. (Keep up the comments, they make me smile, even the rude one's who don't seem to notice their hypocrisy calling me a douche or a dick or whatever when all I did was pretty much the same thing. A hypocrite is a legless man who teaches track.)

You should have just gave him a couple bucks in the first place to buy food for him and his wife and child. But you decided to be a dick, so he took beat your ass. Do you really think a starving pregnant woman and her baby is worth joking about?

A legless man teaching track isn't hypocrisy, it's irony.

Nah, your comment was funny, you didn't deserve to be beaten. He deserved the comment for being shady folk and lying to others to get money.

I hate all the YDIs on this one, the dude was so obviously lying. Y'all call fake on every single one but you can't even tell when a "hobo" is lying.

Next time use your inner voice. Good point though. I agree with you.

Your response doesn't even make sense. How would investing on condoms now help them in any way? Not to say he was telling the truth.

I don't think he deserved to be beaten and robbed, but it was a douchebag move and not funny at all. Very insensitive.

And, um, no kidding he was lying, the bum deserves whatever he gets, he doesn't deserve food or money or sympathy for lying. You guys have never heard that ploy before? The my-pregnant-girlfriend-and-I-are-hungry scheme? Seriously, you hear it all the time but when's the last time you saw the pregnant girlfriend? Yeah...never. If the pregnant girlfriend was really that hungry she should be out begging too as opposed to the alternative, which issitting there and starving herself and her hypothetical baby.
