Almost punched a guy last night

I had the same guy approach me with the same story in the same parking lot a couple months apart and called him out on it. I laughed and said, "Dude, you had the same story a couple months ago. How do you keep breaking down here?" Of course, he denied it, but he was pretty smacked out. Same guy had offered his "sister's" pussy for sale to my friend a few month's before.

I stopped at the grocery store after work and tend to park toward the back of the parking lot since I don't like getting my car dinged and don't mind walking a few extra steps.

I would have parked where everyone else parks because I'm not a douche

I finally say "I don't have time for this" and turn and start to walk away. He then says "you fucking faggot".

I spun around in a somewhat aggressive manner and slowly walked up to him saying "what was that?".

I would have kept walking, especially if I really "[didn't] have time for this," since I tend not to make time for people that call me names

Now I'm probably 10-15 years younger than this guy and a good amount bigger. At this point I'm literally debating drilling the guy and scenarios are going through my head ranging from me killing the guy, to him kicking my ass or shooting me, to getting aids blood on me, and the guy finally walks away. I stood there for a few minutes to make sure he didn't mess with my car and then got my groceries.

I would have not worried about this at all since 1. I would be halfway to the grocery store, and 2. It's 2014, not 1988.

What would you have done?

Also, if you park your sweet spotless ride and challenge old bums to fights in the back of the parking lot, there is presumably noone around to see how macho you are. Which begs the question, why do it in the first place?
 
You are a grown man and your reasonable options in this situation should be clear. Just give the guy a dollar or some change from your pocket, or decline his advances altogether. It's one of the two. This shit is easy.

That's what I've always been told as well. There is a homeless Vietnam veteran in my hometown that lives downtown. He is crazy and so they will not let him into the homeless shelter in town. Knowing this and knowing that he is harmless, a lot of the downtown merchants feed the guy. One new merchant didn't understand why he wasn't at the shelter or at the VA in the psych ward, so he took him both places and was denied getting him in for shelter. The guy is left to live on the streets because he is not mentally sound to hold a job and no where will take him in. I've sometimes brought him food and he is always grateful.

The panhandlers in Winston have gotten bad. I had one that stood behind my car in order to prevent me from leaving when I told her I didn't carry any cash, which is true. I was trying to wait for the car in front of me to leave, but it never did so I called the police and they escorted her away. She was still standing behind my car when they pulled in.

someone should get that lazy good for nothing some bootstraps.
 
this thread is hilarious. why do people care so much what they do with the money or if they are lying? if theyre going to get a beer they arent alcoholics because you gave them a dollar. it's because theyre alcoholics. or drinking is the way they battle the other demons. crazy people calling you names makes you angry? get a life.
 
I was approached by a black guy at the Durham Costco parking lot with a story that he was a preacher and he had a flat just around the corner (conveniently out of site), and he needed $40 for a new tire. He had a nice leather jacket and clothes, so he didn't appear down and out - he could have been a preacher. But if a black preacher had car trouble, his church would be there to help him before the car came to a stop. I said, "if you're a preacher, then you'd know James 1:2-3." He was silent, so I left.

Chris Demme from 2GNC got took by a guy with a story that he was a coach stranded on a recruiting visit. Gave him $40.

SO BETA, ALL OF YOU

If you ask me for money then you better be ready for either $1 or a punch to the temple!!!
 
Your problem began when you acknowledged him. It continued when you didn't follow up your acknowledgement with, "Sorry man, I don't have any cash on me."
 
Jeff Fatt seen the man at the grocery store begging for some change
The hair on his face is dirty, dreadlocked and full of mange
He asked Jeff Fatt for what he could spare with shame in his eyes
"Get a job, you fuckin' slob"'s all he replied

God forbid Jeff Fatt ever had to walk a mile in his shoes
'Cause then Jeff Fatt really might know what it's like to sing the blues
Then Jeff Fatt really might know what it's like
 
You guys are clearly more civilized and compassionate than me. Congrats.
 
Perhaps this has already been discussed, but seems this must be either: (a) parody post or (b) Saneff. Seemed potentially legit until "AIDS blood."
 
A friend and I went bar hopping in NoDa. No parking anywhere except one random spot a good walk from the bars. We pulled up and had to parallel park. Old man sitting on the sidewalk, buddy says "$10 this guy asks us for money".

Of course he does, after complimenting my friend on his parallel parking abilities. I never give out cash, but my friend is different. He pulled his wallet out, of course flashed the $100+ he had in there, which worried me, and he went to grab a $5 out and when he pulled the bill, he pulled his wallet out of his hand and it hit the guy in the chest. We all stood there for a second frozen...the guy looked up and said..."Nahhh...I'm not touching that, I ain't lookin for trouble"

Thought it was an interesting meeting. When we left he told us he'd watch the car for us.

Never once thought about punching him lol
