I was waiting for the bus and some junkie came up to me and asked for money
He called me his brother and stuff and since I'm weak to this kind of strategy I obliged
I reached into my pocket and gave him my bus ticket change.
Granted, it wasn't a lot, it was about .8 euro, or so, iirc.
His response "You know what I'll buy with this, I'm gonna get myself a stake, some wine, and come back to give you the change. Jackass"
I just lost my words. I just said something that roughly translates to "yeah, you are super" and didn't dare to look around because he humiliated me in front of everyone.
I'm not giving shit to beggars again. I've said this before but at that moment I didn't really believe it. Now I truly do. Beggars are scum.

this reminded me of that video of a homeless man calling another man a broke ass nigga. i've had that happen to me a couple times, beggars are ungrateful disgraces and should never be entertained. it's always the same, now i pretend i didn't hear them and keep on walking
i still feel bad for doing so, pathetic

i once gave a homeless guy all the change in my pocket (about $10) and he was very happy
i guess just don't be poor and carry only a euro worth of coins in your pocket
just be confident

I thought about this later. I should have gotten my money back. It takes some time to condition yourself to act in certain a way, because yes, by nature I'm pussy and I avoid confrontation, obviously.

those guys were clearly drug users AND gypsies
it's like the worst people to give money to
but this guy, in particular, might have been going through withdrawal and gotten mad at me for not giving him enough to buy his next dose
shouldn't feel bad about not giving, there are other ways to help people in need, entertaining panhandlers is probably one of the worst ways
