what i am saying is this.... HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?
your attitude towards "ones with stories" is just fabricated in your mind man.
if i were a bum and telling stories helped me get more money, i would sure as fuck use that story everyday.
like YOU DONT KNOW... you're judging them based on... some... like "story" you made up in your head...
thats my whole point... you DONT know. and you CANT know unless you KNOW them.. or seen them habitually rip people off.
otherwise you're just guessing.
so my point is... how many homeless that ACTUALLY needed the money were turned away by you because u have some preconceived image of what they are based on the way they beg?
isnt that kinda crazy... like how can you know? its just a hunch...
isn't NOT giving them money cuz you're a cheapass or cuz u need the money yourself a WAY better reason not to give? than saying "oh he told me a story, he probably doesn't need it"
lol....

they already take a mile. cuz there's inches to be had everywhere. like i said, if its not you, its the next person. you're just like... a thing on a conveyor belt (side walk), and every product (person), that walks by... they have a chance of getting some money.
all u gotta do is flip the scenario around to see how crazy you are talking.
its like if you were at a sampler fair, they're giving out samples of food or drinks... you go up to one sampler and they go "sorry dude".
what are you gonna do?
you're just fucking gonna go to the next sampler. you don't fucking CARE what the first sampler said to you... he's just a vendor. there are MILLIONS of other vendors that you have an opportunity with.
that being said, you think you care what the vendor is thinking? u care why he didnt give u a sample? lol.. no.. fuck him, there's a vendor standing right next to him...
just flip the scenario around... what you think or do, has no real effect at all.
it's like .. just some delusional self fulfilling thought.
cuz you KNOW someone else will give it to them. and THEY KNOW that too.
what i am saying is, it is a binary thought/action. just that you have to come up with this long huge delusional story as to WHY you picked that action... im saying dont even bother thinking or justifying it. u just do it or u dont. your thoughts dont matter really (they only matter if you value self delusional justification, but if you value pragmatic change in the actual world... lol... nothing has changed because of your thoughts).
