Giving to the poor?

You people are a real piece of work. "I know suffering" does not translate into "I've suffered more than you." Keep on keepin on wit you bad ass selves. Your perceptions in life will get you far and wide.

Wait a minute. You are more than just a little bit out of line. No one took you to task and warranted these responses. You were clearly making an attempt to show how you were speaking from a position of authority because you knew suffering and we didn't. We called you out on that, and that's perfectly fair. We certainly didn't castigate you or call you names, as you are doing.If you want to have a rational discussion about this, that would be great. But your name-calling, particularly to someone who said nothing negative about you, will certainly not help you make your case.

...so my post is made only slight less relevant by the fact that you obviously deleted the more offensive of your responses while I was typing it. good call

All righty then

Okay, you're gonna have to help me out with this one.
What's significant about that date?
Why can't I give to the poor now? -

I was just changing it up - you can give to the poor now if you want to, but please, no designer blankets.

Ok, gonna ignore arguments in this thread.
I was SO frusterated the other day. We are in a small community, and you get to know the panhandlers who are users, and the ones who are mentally challenged...bla bla right?
So a "newbie" was standing by a pay phone and when I pulled in, she looked really uncomfortable.
On my way out of the store she asked if I had 50 cents...Asked her if she needed to make a call, she said yeah...so I gave her $.50. In her pocket it goes....two seconds later, someone else is giving her $.50! I wanted so bad to smack her. I drop change or food or what ever all the time, but when I got lied to...urgh!
Swallowed it, and thought to myself, I had a chance to do a good thing, I did it, and she lives with the consequences of her choices. I had to make myself feel better by focusing on the fact that I did something giving, not her lying...though it took a while..lol

That's when you grab her by the ankles, turn her upside down and get you fidy cent back
