Today, I walked to Starbucks. On the way a homeless guy asked me for change and I lied and said I had no money. On my way back, Strawberry Frappuccino in hand, the same guy recognized me. He followed me for 3 blocks, swearing and yelling at me. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, while getting out of Starbucks there was a homeless guy. I bought him a coffee and he was so happy he gave me a hug. Guess whose wallet is missing? FML
Today, a man came up to me and asked for a $50 bill in change. Being a good man, I said sure. I gave him the change and he gave me the $50 bill. After walking into Starbucks to buy a coffee, I handed the cashier my $50 bill. She called the cops. It was counterfeit. FML
Today, I saw an elderly man struggling to make it across a busy street. I jumped up from my table at Starbucks to help him, leaving my things behind. When I got back to my table feeling good, I found that my coffee had disappeared. So had my wallet. FML
Today, I passed a homeless person asking for change. When I politely apologized and told him that I had none, he yelled angrily, "Who comes to this city without money?" I replied, "Apparently, you do." Wrong answer. He followed me, now screaming. 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, 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, my friend and I walked 3 miles to a Starbucks. We went inside, paid for our coffees and walked the 3 miles back to my house. We forgot to pick up our coffees. FML
Today, I was walking down the street when a homeless man asked me for some spare change. I told him I didn't have any. I then tripped. Not only spilling the soda I was drinking all over myself, but also spilling the spare change I had from buying it. 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 was sitting in the park eating a sandwich, when a homeless guy asked me for some spare change. I said I didn't have any. He offered an "erotic striptease" in exchange for my sandwich. I said no. He gave one anyway. I walked back to work on an empty stomach. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

you're not obliged to give your money to a bum anyway!

Haha. This happened to me once, just keep on walking and drop a couple of quarters to keep him occupied while you make an escape.

You selfish prick. it's your duty to provide for the poor and you buy starbucks and lie? You could have been homeless just as easy, it's all just luck of the draw. You should find this guy again and give him a lot of money for you being a selfish bastard before.

to the guy above me: you are a dick. Just because some dumbfuck didn't finish 3rd grade (im assuming this is you too) doesn't mean you have to give them jack shit. It's not just "luck of the draw". There is some luck, but a lot of it has to do with the person themselves. And you dont have any ******* "duty" to give this dumb ******* asshole any money. I say you should kick him in the gut when he follows you for 3 blocks crying and swearing because he doesn't know how to do addition and you didn't give him money.

I thought the same thing as 180. Besides, a lot of times when you give bums money they just buy booze. Like one time this homeless man came up to my mom and I at a gas station and asked for money, so we told him we'd meet him across the street at Burger King and buy him whatever he wanted, as much as he wanted. He got all rude and was like, "no, just give me the money!"

I put FYL, but it was kinda YDI as you let him follow you for three blocks abusing you for something you had no obligation to. I don't really think homeless people deserve to be homeless, or have no right to ask for money, but I also don't think anyone is obliged to give money to those who need it. There's a lot of people who need charity as much or more than that guy, and it's your choice who you decide to help, or not. People saying you should have given him money, "should" sponsor a starving child in Africa or donate to helping families in Palestine who are also homeless, and live every day with the risk of being killed. Unless you are a complete communist, you can't really say some "should" give money to anyone, just because they have spare money. Basically, I think most of the people commenting in this should be a little less extreme in their beliefs, one way or the other.
