I never have cash on me and sometimes really want to give to some panhandlers, but I did once have an apple from my lunch and handed it to someone. The human was super appreciative so I made a note to try and have leftover fruits for anyone I see.
Then I came across a fatty who laughed in my face and said "shit, rather have dirt!". Like, here you are asking for money for food, but won't take food? Half the time I feel like they are the ones that lie about being homeless for a quick buck.

My ex-coworker was homeless and played the pity card on everyone, every week there was a new story of how someone stole her stuff or messed up her tent. She also would beg everyone to basically do her work for her. She lasted longer than she should have because of the pity management felt.
She straight up told a coworker one night she wasn't going to do something he asked because "it's not her job", it was a simple task of bringing me a box that was part of my tasks to finish for the night, and he only asked her because she was on her way back to where I was, I eventually went down there and found it.
Fat homeless are disgusting vile creatures who lie nonstop.

Fat beggars strike me as someone who isn't trying. I mean, surely you would like to stop being homeless ultimately. Not blowing excess money on beetus would seem to be a first step to achieving that. It shows you are not willing to help yourself so why am I helping you?

"I got some CHANGE! Your attitude is a complete reflection of the garbage that is your existence! You body is a bumbling mound of excessive calories you entitled butterfuck planetoid! Stop harassing all these hard-working, decent HUMANS! The fact that I'm even breathing the same air as you makes me want to puke in your GODDAMNED FACE! Your mere presence is so revolting I feel like grabbing you by your ogre ears and hurling you off this bus! The only thing stopping me from doing so is my absolute certainty that soon, but not nearly soon enough, LORD BEETUS will take your limbs from you in a slow, painful, degrading way that leaves you so utterly miserable, stuck in the moldy embrace of a disgusting, broken couch, so depressed and alone that you'll be begging for it all to end! FEEL THE CHANGE YET?!?!"
Next time.... ;)

That fatty fuck was just showing the world how degenerate fats are and selfish. I would have told him to fuck off, I don't give money to fuckers like that and even then, no way would I help a fat in the first place.
I often buy food for homeless people in my town and city, I have personal connection and care of to the cause of homelessness and so I offer to buy food for them and physically give it to them myself. Then I know my money is not going on drugs, drink ect and they have a decent meal. I hate seeing homeless people on the streets, it hits my heart badly, everyone deserves somewhere warm, safe and dry to sleep at night.
Don't you worry about that degenerate lardball, karma will come for him, Lord Beetus will come for him!

I tried to do that ONCE. Never again. The asshole just looked at the food, scoffed, and said, "just give me some money."
A friend of mine offered to hire one of the ones with a "will work for food" signs. He was promptly told to fuck off.
These people don't need help. They want quick cash without working for it.

I have never given money to a panhandler. They are rarely "marginalized by society" and are mostly just consciousless people who panhandle because it's an easy scam to make a few bucks. They dirty themselves up, look pathetic, and trade in their dignity to beg because the hourly pay is many times what they would earn at an honest job, and it's tax-free!
The fat panhandler was probably way more likely to be a legit homeless person. An alcoholic who begs to make the shakes go away in the morning, maybe keep a slight buzz on all day, eat a couple meals of cheap fast food, and a drink himself into oblivion at night can easily consume 4000+ calories a day with that lifestyle. $5 is a meal or a pint of liquor, and $2 is a 40 of malt liquor or cheap beer.
I dont want to support either lifestyle, so I never give money to panhandlers.

Exactly. I see several homeless in my city collecting cans and such to recycle for money, and a few even have jobs. Panhandlers are not necessarily homeless, but are almost always scammers, addicts, or both. The ones begging for food have in almost all cases sold off their food stamps (and yes, you can get food stamps without an address. You can pick them up at the post office or the benefits office). Honestly I have far more respect for prostitute junkies than panhandlers, because at least the prostitutes are doing something to earn money instead of bothering people until they get a handout.

I never give to panhandlers. So many of them are full of crap (and since they're fat, that's a ton of crap). A lot of those people are employed and just greedy. By begging, they can make more per hour than people with actual jobs. I see these assholes all the time. They're always fat, they spend a lot of time setting up signs and chairs and occasionally umbrellas (and once a fucking portable television). They have their pet dogs with them on fancy leashes and a lot of them are wearing Ray-Bans. Then these 500 pound Twinkie dumpsters have the audacity to claim they need money for food. These assholes already get more on food stamps than some people make working full time.
These greedy fakers piss me off. Truly needy people have social programs where they can get what they need, and that's what they usually do (unless they're cut off for breaking the law somehow, and then they deserve nothing anyways). Those fat bastards begging everywhere deserve to be run down for bothering traffic. I now want to purchase a large truck just so I can install a cow catcher and shove these creatures off the road.

I've been seeing this much around my city. The fat ones are the worst because they don't stand and approach vehicles to beg for gibs. The absolute worst ones are the diabetic wheelchair-bound panhandlers. They sit there on the side, all fat and lazy, wiggling their diabetic stump at people and sometimes bringing kids into this to fetch the money from people. It's a shame that we can't round these people up and toss them in the ocean. They're sucking up my tax dollars with their social-welfare and on top of that, guilt tripping people to giving them money for doing nothing.
