so i was just lamenting to my coworkers about how bad the subway stops reek of urine in philadelphia and i realized something we aren't concerned enough about homeless peoples hydration levels i believe gatorade should hold a benefit here in our city for homeless champions who require proper hydration - i mean - just drinking cheap beer isnt enough (trust me i know) these people are finely tuned athletic machines and need to be in top form to ask for change, smell like shit, sleep in awkward places, and harass the straights why isnt anyone concerned? the stench that comes from the bowels of the public transit system are from dehydrated bodies - this is NOT good ! |

Yeah, I've wondered how they manage to stay hydrated. Tap water in public toilets? |

don't you know anything? they're quenched by mouthwash and isopropyl alcohol! When most homeless people ask for money for food, it's funny to give them a load of food or coupons for free food somewhere and look at their annoyed expression afterwards. |

i don't believe you've ever given a load of food. anyway, i've given them bus passes and coupons for food, and i took some migrant workers to the grocery store and bought them some food. and you know what they all said? they fucking said "thanks for helping me out." sheesh. |

nah Q, i hear ya ive had both experiences ive told people id buy em a sandwich or give em food and they look at me like im outta my mind - i would say 1 in 20 wants food - the others...well...just guess one dude i gave change to (which is amazingly rare) comes up to me and says - "look, im not bullshitting, i wanna buy beer, you have any change?" - i had just bought a six pack and had some change so i gave him a dollar - honesty is the best policy! |

also - food is easy for them to come by - shelters, scraps, and food is cheap (though not too nutritious or healthy, thats another story) but there arent places that discard of booze, or give out cans of cold beer for the needy - if there were id be first in line! |

Speaking of natural needs, do homeless people jack off? |

I haven't given a 'load' of food. I say this jokingly because I gave one guy an unopened bag of a junk food something or other that I had with me instead of money because I didn't bring any. He looked slightly annoyed but said 'thank you'. I'm pretty certain he really wanted money for alcohol, and he seemed a bit drunk at the time already. I have seen a homeless guy drinking mouthwash on the street. But if I was homeless with nothing and had to work my way up from that, I'd probably feel like getting drunk most of the time.. because the way society is set up, it probably seems hopeless when you reach rock-bottom. I wasn't really being serious.. You need a more sensitive sarcasm detector. I don't think most would be truly annoyed if you gave them food, even if they did really want to buy alcohol.. most would probably be grateful, especially if there were seriously trying their best to straighten their life out... |

i'm making adjustments to my sarcasm detector this very moment... or maybe you need to refine your sarcasm technique. : P |
