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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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
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, 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 Oh yeah, that's right, the pack contained the money I'd withdrawn from an ATM.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
Today, I helped a "blind" man across the street. He kindly said thank you and patted me on the back. Then, I went into a store and realized my wallet was missing. FML
Today, while walking to work, I saw a homeless guy with a funny "NEED MONEY 4 BOOZE" sign, so I gave him a few spare dollars for his humor. On my way back home, he was out cold on the sidewalk with several empty bottles beside him. Whoops. FML
Today, I gave a homeless man my last bit of spare change so he could get on the bus. Just as I was about to get on too, I realized I'd lost my bus card. I had to get off the bus and watch as the man waved at me through the window. FML
Today, I went for coffee with some people from work. I lined up to order behind a guy I'd only met a few times. When he paid, he dropped his wallet, and I saw that he had a picture of me cut from the company newsletter, enlarged, and taped inside his wallet. 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, after already having a terrible day, I went to Starbucks for an espresso. Being nice, I put the last dollar I had in my wallet in their tip jar. While paying for my drink, my card was denied for insufficient funds. The world hates me. FML
Today, a homeless man asked me for some money to eat. He ate the five dollars I gave him. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

A homeless guy stole your wallet? Why didn't he just go to work and earn the money instead of limiting the amount of luxuries you can buy? Jeez, the homeless are so rude.

That's why you don't give to panhandlers.

Why would you buy a homeless guy starbucks? As expensive as that crap is, he probably could have bought himself several meals if you'd given him the cash you wasted on that coffee. Next time, don't be a douche bag, just give the guy the money and he won't have to rob you.

Do you really think a hobo will be reasonable and buy food with it? remember who we're talking about here. He'd probably buy booze if op would have just given him cash.

yes that is why you never just give them cash. most will just go buy booze and blow the money.

30 and 55- When I give homless people money, I don't care what they spend it on later. If buying some booze or whatever, is what might bring the only joy to them that day, then so be it. If they are satisfied that they've had enough food that day, what else should they buy? A shoe rack for their box? It is their life and they should have the freedom to choose what they make of it. Just as we all have the choice to give money/food to them or not. I'll bet a lot of you buy drugs or alcohol with your or your parents money, huh?

Every fml regarding hobos: OP gets pickpocketed, pissed on, cursed at, beat up. Moral of the story....Do not approach hobos. They're homeless for a reason.
