I was pumping gas into my 16 yr old Toyota suv, and a guy pulls up to the other side of the pump in a like new Jeep cherokee limited. He asks for anything, he ‘left’ his wallet home. I gave him $5. I noticed tattoos on exposed neck and arms, and thought, “I’m too nice of a guy, this dude needs self discipline in several areas”.
I had that happen when my husband was pumping gas. An amish man walked up and said he didn’t have any money for gas and asked my husband for some cash. I jumped out of the car and told that beggar to go return those Oreo Double Stuffed cookies he just bought from the gas station to get some cash. He grinned and kept walking.... and got into a brand new Lexus that was parked at the pump behind us.
Another woman accosted me in her Volvo when I was walking from the parking lot into HomeGoods and begged for gas money. She had a HUGE full Starbucks fruity drink in her cupholder and I told her she should have planned better and paid for gas before her $10 drink. She made a horrible slur about me and I smiled and notified her that I was going to my HOME where MY HUSBAND was waiting for me with dinner and asked her what she was going home to. She peeled out of the parking lot.
Screw these beggars.
