Fuck that son.
Try living in Detroit for a month.
Fuck those idiots/crazies/junkies.
If you cross a street tward me at night for any reason ($) your getting a .40 pulled on you scum ass.
I have so many stories about overly aggressive bums. My personal favorite is the
shit head that sits on a street with parking and walks up to cars when people get
out and says "hay man (its always hay man) spare some change? i watch the cars"
which = pay me or im fucking your car up. First up, if you walk up to the car like
that and im in it your looking at the bad end of a black metal tube. Second i've
found a good strategy: i take a picture of the shit head and tell him if for any
reason my cars fucked up when i get back, i dont care if a meteor hits it, im going
to search hell and high water till i find him again and break both his legs.

If i gave a dime to every one of you shit heads that " .. needs 38 cent fo a bus"
i would be begging for cash and fighting for the nice corner by the casino.

I'm not proud of this, but two years ago me and several friends would "spainge" almost daily. We got pretty good at it and rarely went home with less then 200 dollars.

We would take my friend's car all over town (often times leaving town) and hit up every single Walmart, Target, and grocery store we could find. We had an elaborate story of how we were from out of town and how our car was broken into. All our money, a laptop, and the CD player were stolen. Surprisingly enough this worked on almost everyone that would stop and listen to our story. Hell, we even got money from a couple of off duty police officers during this time.

The kicker was my friends car was perfect for our story. His car really had been broken into not long before we started doing this, so the siding on the passenger side window was stripped off, the lock to the trunk was all fucked up, he really did have his cd player ripped out, and his gas gauge was broken and stuck on E. Anyone that didn't believe us and wanted to see proof that we were stranded would take a quick look at the car, and usually end forking over more money then anybody else that day.

The trick was to never ask anyone going in the store, but rather catch them on their way out(so they don't tell store employees of our activities). Also we would never ask anyone for money, but rather ask the person to drive to the nearest gas station with us and put gas in our tank. Most people were not willing to do this but believed we were being sincere and gave us cash. 

We never came home without a full tank of gas, pizza, enough weed for us to smoke all night, and a whole lot of alcohol (usually expensive micro brews or hard alcohol).We even financed several camping trips this way. We put in a weeks worth of work and went out into the woods with 15-20 friends and enough booze, weed, and drugs to last us for several days.

I think its important to note that during this this we were all extreme alcoholics. Alcohol influenced everything we did. I had a lot of fun spainging and don't regret a thing but I've gladly put that behind me.

Panhandling is humiliating.

Though, I've heard that panhandlers and street musicians make a LOT of money in major cities.

Hell yeah...thats something I might actually do. Its different if you're just taking advantage of religious idiots, right?

Even the bible says that "a fool and his money are soon parted"













I'm actually thinking of doing this tomorrow.

I felt good about myself one day and saw this bum in town who looked worse for ware. I knelt down to him and asked if he was ok and would like anything to drink or eat. I forget exactly what he said now but he seemed really moody despite my open friendliness and willingness to go get him food and whatnot. Nevertheless, I got him an expensive cup of tea and cookie from Starbucks. He simply said, "Thanks."  and that was it. I went on my merry way, a little less money than what I had before and no distinct sense of satisfaction...purely because little gratification was shown.
