And he gives me attitude and says "Well I can just get money from someone else then", and he walks off with the gift certificates.

I'm sitting there fuming wishing I would've taken them back, when all of a sudden the crumpled up certificates come flying through my sunroof. I was so happy that he decided to give them back, so I went and got some yummy pizza.
can I have a gift certificate?

my ex carries around a bag of treats in her glove box for when she has her dogs in the car, and she offered it to a bum at a light one time and he refused it.

To the OP, most people that HAVE cars don't even think about what they are putting on teh hood/roof/trunk scratching it.

I saw another bum at a light one time, and the front car rolled down there window and I assume asked for directions because I saw the bum pointing like he/she was giving directions, and then the people drove off

Can we please stop all the classism & refer to those that are less fortunate as "financially challenged", "Domicily Challenged", etc?

My dad knew a guy who worked a normal 9-5, would park his BMW on a side street, change into bum clothes, walk a quarter mile and start grifting.

That mother****er made like 100k a year BEFORE he started begging

Totally, forget those people.
