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

70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
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
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, 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, a homeless man asked me for some money to eat. He ate the five dollars I gave him. 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 came across a street musician. He looked extremely well-fed already, but his music was pretty good, so I gave him some spare change. As soon as I turned away, he started screaming at me for being "cheap", and chased me half a block before running out of breath. FML
Today, I tried to give some change to a homeless man. My girlfriend pulled me away and ranted about how homeless people are all basically bastards who deserve their misfortune, and that I shouldn't give "our" money away. 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 realized that I'm a terrible human being. For the first time in my life, I gave some change to a homeless guy, but only so he'd get out of my face long enough for me to watch two other bums beating the crap out of each other over a sandwich. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Looks like you lost a game of "Homeless or Hipster?"

I won't do that crap no more. I gave a homeless man 2 double cheeseburgers and threw them back at me saying he would rather have the cash....enjoy the hunger games asshole.

This is cold, but they are downtrodden for a reason

Oh yes. Mental Illness is such a good "reason" to be "downtrodden". Or any other conditions (or combination thereof) that make it literally impossible to hold a job. They should just be on programs - oh, wait, SSDI hardly covers rent without accounting for utilities, and food stamps (if you even make the cut depending on demand in your area) for a single adult are almost nothing. Oh wait, I forgot - you need an address for those, as you do with many food pantries. Do you realize that even with Insurance, a vast percentage of people (higher, if counting family units with young children) are at best one major emergency or chronic diagnosis away from living in a car, and from there it's a tiny stumble to shelter or street?

I remember when I went to NY, there was a homeless man yelling at the cars that would pass by while doing "karate." I'm wondering if that's the one you tried being nice to.

Reading these comments validates my stance on never giving hobos cash. Seems like most are fake.

FYL While what you did was good, it's still better to give homeless people food instead of money, because food can't be exchanged for drugs.

Turn around and go take the money back if he's gonna be a thankless asshole.
