Grocery Store Trifecta
I went to the grocery store to get some yogurt today.
And while looking at the various yogurts, I had some pasty death camp survivor Vegan instantly lay into me over buying yogurt cause it contains beneficial bacteria. I just shook my head and told him that he murders baby carrots. Which he squeeked back " I eat things without a face!!" And I snapped back "Neither does yogurt cultures!!
Then in the parking lot outside the door, the scary as all hell woman begging for bus fare, when I know for a fact Van Gaulder Bus only charges $30 for a ticket to Chicago!!
Number Three approached me at my car, munching a Big Mac, telling me he hadn't eaten in days and had enough Gold around his neck to impress Mr T. Food Giant had the biggest brass balls to beg, the way he was dressed was not that of a homeless man that he stated, plus TWO Visible cellphones, both Apple phones!!! AND expensive as hell Nike shoes.
I fucking hate people like this!!!
I hate pushy holier than thou Vegans more!!

About 2 weeks ago at burgerking i had a woman walk up to my car with a gas can asking for cash so she could get home to her daughter, i told her i didnt have any cash but would be more than willing to go over to the gas station next door and fill her gas can with my card....she huffed gave me a dirty look and walked off....hmmmm scam much.
I got the same black guy giving me the same story literally every week how his car ran out of gas just over yonder and if I could spot him $5 to get gas so he could get home. He's told me this 5 times so far and the story has never varied.
He must make enough to keep up this lie.
He must make enough to keep up this lie.
its not the first time just the most recent, best time we had, was when we had a walk up asking for a hand out for gas and didnt realize that we were in an unmarked, they were quick with the fake phone call saying they were all set and then said sorry for bothering us....i miss tho days.
I had a guy come up to me while I was biking (to save gas money) to Subway for a sandwich. Offered to buy him a footlong of his choice, he sort of made a mess of ordering it, then went into the bathroom for a while. And when we were leaving, he offered to sell me the sandwich, and then threw the whole thing away right in front of me.
No shit, there I was ...
My wife and I are pushing tables together at a pizza place before a fur meet.
2 bible thumpers walk up and ask "Have you found Jesus?"
She look the guy right in the eyes and says "I found him last week, it's your turn to look for him!"
They circled the restaurant for hours but never approached any of our guys.

The problem is the good rabbi looks like one of them... he looks like an Obama-eyed liberal hippy with the matching sub 70 IQ who turns out to be anything but and it confuses and enrages the loons who thought they had him pegged as an easy mark. http://rabbi-tom.deviantart.com/art.....ttoo-101427090
Good way to try guilt-tripping a vegan always is reminding how much of a murder it is to kill a plant or tree alike how it is brutally ripped or cut off from its living environment and then mutilated even further to take whatever is edible of it. But I doubt they are too thick to bother listening any of this.
Depends where you are.
I live in Sheboygan, and like it here a lot.
I only encounter people like the Rabbi runs into once about every decade or so.
My Mom lives in Oconto county in Northern WI, she and my Dad had a nice house built on the lake, and my Mom has stayed there in the 6 years since my Dad died.
She has so many friends up there, so there's no problem.

I work at a grocery store and I see these people a lot. from people whos ay 'man I am so broke I need cash to get food!" then they hold up $400 phones. To stoned teens bitching at me because my store oppresses animals and sells their flesh. The strung out people have also been creepy old people. I ahd one lady try to hook me up with her 45 year old daughter because "I could take her of her 6 kids"
Let's see. When provided with on demand automatic milking parlors the cows use them, more than twice a day. Gee, they don't like full udders. No force required. And the Vegan Wennies conveniently forget the food, shelter from predators, and vet care the farmer provides.
Since all lives count. One beef critter feeds 120 people, one life. A pound of rice costs the livers of an estimated 15,000 insects and amphibians, per pound. The one farmer comment "You can see them in a green wave in front of the combine."

It's not just Madison, it's all over. The organization I volunteer for used to have a rummage sale every year. We'd raise 5-8000 dollars for our efforts. The last afternoon of the sale we'd open it up to the various social service organizations in our city for their clients to come in and carry out, for free, any clothes and housewares that they could fit in two shopping bags per adult They were also told, that for their clients to be admitted to the sale, they had to have an ORIGINAL of the authorization letter on the their organization's letterhead that was signed by their counselor or other representative. You'd be surprised at how many photocopies we were shown. When we turned the cheaters away, they would get VERY indignant as if we were denying them something they were entitled to. When we reminded others that furniture and sports items were not included. some of them would pull out a roll of bills the size of a man's fist and pay cash on the barrel-head. The thing that annoyed me the most was that the majority of these "needy" folks showed up in pickups and cars newer than what the volunteers drove, many with cigarettes rolled up in a shirt sleeve and virtually all of them had an i-phone or other smart phone.
No, not just Madison, the "entitlement mentality" is everywhere...and it ruins opportunities for the folks that truly need some assistance.

Another thing I've said to more than a few vegans: "As far as I'm concerned, the two stupidest things I can think of to solely identify yourself by, are what you put in your mouth, and what you choose to do with your genitals. Only time I want to hear about what you're eating, is if you want to share a good recipe with me."
Reminds me of when I was in the dentist the other day. Listening to a woman going on about which vitamin supplements she takes, how much of each, etc. The woman at the counter asks if she takes a multivitamin to which she answers "I refuse to take those, I like to know exactly how much of each vitamin I am taking. Who knows what else they hide in those pills." At this point I think she's just a health nut, and then she walks around the corner with a pack of smokes in her hand! Yes...because we should be scared of our vitamins but not cigarettes...smh
The fascinating part to me is the utter reality disconnect of saying you haven't eaten in days with a burger right in your hand. Clearly he's just running his lines by rote, but c'mon... If you're going to lie to me at least don't wave a huge sign that says "I'm lying to you!" (I've seen this phenomenon in people from panhandlers to lawyers in expensive suits, as if they're entitled to you believing their bullshit.) Have at least a modicum of stagecraft.
Nothin' worse than a lazy grifter.

This is the second time I had a guy munching a burger tell me to my face he's had nothing to eat for days. And when I pointed that out to the person, he looked at me as if I was full of shit. The first guy went as far answering his cell phone and talked about a big party that very night he planned to attend.
This afternoon, I counted no less that 6 street corner panhandlers with their beg signs. Of those six, I'd say one was truely homeless. Just by the stuff he had, how filthy he looked and gaunt in the face, plus all the stuff he had with him. None of the others had their stuff with them, all were clean, looked well fed and in clean clothes. Two were even surfing their smart phones while begging.

I'll give money to buskers, at least they're providing something in exchange, but the only circumstance where I'll give money to a panhandler is if their pitch is clever or amusing. Lying without even the minimal effort of making it even semi-believable is not amusing. I'm not gonna subsidize you for implying I'm stupid.
I've run into all three of these situations, plus a couple of others. I work in a building at the edge of a large, old (50+ years) public plaza in Insurance City, Hartford CT. I get begged at by the pros. Usually, their car broke down in New Haven, an hour away, and they need bus fare to go rescue their spouse and larvae kids. $16 bucks buys a bus ride, but they want the cash, not a ticket.
The Vegan rides my bus. She criticizes me for wearing a leather hat (it's 52% cotton, 48% polyester). I bought a gun magazine annual at the drug store and really pissed her off. Another one follows me around Whole Foods and tells me how bad meat is for me. Both reek of cigarette smoke -- who's got that moral high ground?
Mr. Gimme hangs out on the Plaza, chatting on his latest-model iPhone. As I pass, he tells his ho, "Call you later, I gotta go to work now," and shuffles over: "C'n I axe you a question?" (Ebonics lives). Dude, you got a cooler phone than I do, not passing out no dough.
