Today, I saw a homeless man on the street and decided to give him the dollar bill I had left in my wallet. He said "Thank you" then as I turned to walk away, he muttered "Cheap-ass cunt". FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
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, while walking down the street, a homeless man walked up to me. He opened his mouth to say something and I immediately said that I didn't have any spare change because I was late for work. He then said "I was gonna ask you for the time, dickwad". Apparently he wasn't homeless. FML
Today, while I was walking home, a homeless man saw me and didn't ask for change, but how much I charged. FML
Today, a homeless man asked me for some money to eat. He ate the five dollars I gave him. FML
Today, I was stopped at a light when a woman approached, asking for help to buy food. I told her I only had a dollar, but she could have it. After I gave it to her, she stepped back, held it up, then proceeded to tear it into pieces, before walking away while calling me a cheapskate. Really? 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 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, while I was walking downtown a homeless person asked me for a dollar. I thought it would be funny to wave the dollar in his face and taunt him. I guess he thought it would be funny to stab me in the leg with a pencil. FML
Today, I went out for a smoke break. A homeless person walks up to me and asks for a cig. As I pull out my pack he says "Oh... Menthols... no I don't smoke that cheap shit". I was called cheap by a hobo. FML
Today, a homeless guy asked me for a cigarette. Knowing that I only had a couple left in my pack, I gave it to him. He opened it, took one out and thanked me profusely. A bit surprised, I went on my way. Oh yeah, that's right, the pack contained the money I'd withdrawn from an ATM. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'd probably have snatched it back and said, "Well, that was my last dollar you ungrateful, pathetic excuse for a human being, I'll have it back because I'll appreciate it more than you obviously did." Then run like hell because as little as he appreciated it, he wouldn't want to give it up.

I am not defending him: that was a lovely thing you did OP and he should not have said what he said. I suppose, playing devil's advocate, he could have been feeling that a dollar wasn't enough, maybe he was worried about not having enough for the hostel or food and had been ground down by this being his day to day life. Maybe he felt people had a lot of money compared to him and a bit more would have made no difference to them but a lot to him. But that would be me assuming an awful lot and it would not excuse his reaction at all. Thank you for trying to help OP. I tend to buy homeless people food rather than money so they cannot spend it on drugs. It isn't always what they need though, but they are always grateful. Perhaps a homeless charity is where we should both be putting those bits of cash rather than to the person directly?

Let's not defend the guy who just called a woman who gave him a dollar a ****. I'm pretty sure anyone who was that ungrateful isn't really on hard times but is working a scam. I agree, however, with giving them food or something to drink instead of money. The ones who are truly desperate will appreciate it.

Omg something similar happend to me. I once gave a poor man on the street a coin cause it was ALL I had (as a reference it was like half a bus ride here, not much but still) and he threw it to MY FACE. :( I had to pick the coin up from the floor cause I might need it. I was angry at first but after time... i thought that maybe that man had some other issues. Poor guy. Maybe the man that said that to you had issues too.

Tell him to get a job if he's expecting to get more.

Does he not realise that's a meal? In my house, we are so broke that we'd be glad to have a dollar for a burger.

You live in a house... You are not broke.

Rent isn't cheap. After all the bills you could have nothing left over for food.

I was walking down the street the other day, and a homeless guy approaches me with his cup full of coins and asks "A dime sir?" I said "Well if you insist" and I took one. Such a nice guy!
