    I've actually had homeless people ask me for gas money. I never actually gave them the gas money, I usually give them money if they ask for food money. But after my last experience at QT, I'll only be giving food and job applications. I mean, WTF it's logical not to give them money for gas. If you can afford a car, especially the cars that most of them drive, you can afford the stinky $3/gallon.

    So far, the stories that "homeless" people throw at me are: food money, gas money, "i just came from iraq" or some other army related situations.

    The "I'm heading to (wherever, USA) to be with my sick (insert relative here)" excuses they use to pull on your heart strings. I learned a lot from these people, and real homeless people, when I was living on the street myself. I've learned the tricks of the trade, but I never participated. I did my own thing and never panhandled in all my time out there. Later, QD.

    You was homeless at some point in your life?

    Damn, mad respect for you. You're doing very good in your life compared to that you were homeless at some point. Even though I did have mad respect for you, I respect you more as a person now than I did before, later.

    I don't even acknowledge "homeless" people....in the last 12 years I have done one thing for a homeless person, I was sitting in the drive thru at a mcdonalds here in macon with an obviously sad look on my face because I was having the shittiest day that anyone could ever have and ol buddy came by my truck and said "smile man, we're still breathing right?" and walked on, didn't ask for anything, wasn't looking for a handout, just noticed I was obviously having a shit day, I quickly rolled the window down and asked if there was anything I get for him and ended up grabbing him a meal with a shake and I've never seen the guy since

    I've lived in Macon my whole life and some of the people around here have been homeless for a long long time....i see some of the same faces day in and day out in the same spots doing the same thing, i'm not giving them crap, i don't care if they have a skank female with them or a dog or a cat....i'm the most heartless person you'll ever run across and they'll starve before I give up my hard earned cash to some idiot who doesn't want better for themselves

    I appreciate that. I've met so many people when I was out there. Of course, every one of them had their stories of how they got there. Well over half have everyone else to blame but themselves. They would tell me their stories and I could tell that they were creating their own mess. It's very easy to get caught up in the drug life with using them to get "away" from their problems. The addictiveness gets to them and they don't turn around. The ones that may be out there "legitimately" have gotten so used to it, they just keep on surviving that way. I was lucky enough (and smart enough) to not get wrapped up in drugs and alcohol or I might still be there. After two years of BS-ing myself, I turned it around and moved out of state to clear my mind.

    I never believed the sob stories before and I damn sure don't believe them now. <--- talking about the "just ran out of gas on my way to dying Mom" or the "I'm hungry can you spare some change for a hamburger" routines. Later, QD.

    the real homeless ppl have jobs, they clean parking lots for a few dollars, and MANY other "here and there" oddjobs that local managers will gladly pay a few bucks for rather than have to do it htemselves. they dont beg all day. Many if not most, have mental problems and thats the life they choose to live.
