Love: Today, I was walking down the street, when a man behind me tapped...

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 was walking on the street when a woman in front of me dropped a couple of dollars. I picked them up and chased her to return it all. She insisted that it wasn't hers. I tried to tell her it was, but she wouldn't accept it. A cop saw me and arrested me for solicitation. FML

Today, I went to a carnival. While walking around with my cousin, I saw a one hundred dollar bill on the ground. Just before I stepped on it, a man grabbed it. His words? "Don't you just hate it when that happens?" And he walked away. FML

Today, I picked up a penny off the street for good luck on my job interview. A few seconds later, a hobo beat me up, took my wallet, and ran off. The whole ordeal made me late for the interview. So much for good luck. FML

Today, a man approached my delivery van and asked for change for a $5 bill. I guess I should've expected him to grab the change and run off with the extra money. FML

Today, on the way home, a guy yelled "Hey, YOU!" from behind me, so I walked faster. He ran up to me, shouting, "I said stop, asshole!" I almost pissed myself in fear, thinking I was being mugged. Turns out I'd left my wallet at the grocery store, and he was just trying to return it. FML

Today, I was walking down the street and noticed a man in ripped clothes with a cup out asking for money. I was on my way to the movies but I felt like this man needed it more that me. Right as I gave it to him, he pulled out his blackberry. 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

You definitely deserve it for not giving it to him, if you knew it wasn't yours.

You did good. The hobo was probably going to waste it on booze..

Why on Earth didn't you just give him the $5? It's not like you would have lost any money doing so, considering the $5 wasn't yours...

"Not having the integrity to turn him down, I took it."...well at least you admitted it. And yeah, why didn't you give him the 5 dollars? He probably needed it more (just assuming here) and then he wouldn't be chasing you around. Double win!

It's five dollars... and he's homeless. Seriously? The literally poor guy was chasing you for TWENTY minutes... and you wouldn't hand it to him? Or even just scream 'FINE' and throw it over your shoulder?

I don't blame you for taking it, depending on my mood i might have taken it too, But you should have given the money to the "hobo." It wasn't yours in the first place, and he needed it more than you do. YDI
