Big Issue sellers

Post by Lizard »

Oxford, Cambridge, York, full of them, I will always give the a quid or two, but draw the line at being given the Mag as I would rather read the 'watchtower' sat on a bed of razor wire, to be honest I mainly give them money so they can buy better drugs, I know that must be frustrating, nothing worse than cheap draw.

I wish there was a smiley that showed you to be an arse but sadly there isnt:

Andy I have yet to read anything remotely amusing or interesting from your good self, as I suspect you are not capable of stringing together a civilised response, so do us all a favour and up your game, or- are YOU a big issue seller, in which case I appologise. !boring!

I'd put together a civilised response but unfortunately I found you original post annoying.

I also do not find the issue of homeless or the work of the Big Issue something to make fun of.

In light of your recent comments on people in prisons and the burden they are to us I also found your comment supporting drug use laughable.

I try my best to ignore dumbass comments but when it comes to the above it's hard not to say something.

I could do the long rant and facts thing but the comment doesn't merit it so I'll stick my normal style of response of BOLLOCKS or something similar.

Sorry I suspect your post was some attempt at humour but I didn't find it funny.

You see them everywhere....Why the fuck should i give them a quid towards their next bag of heroin when i struggle to afford my own drug habit....thats what i tell them! lol

Seriously though....i dont see why i should fund someones crack habit....id rather give to a homeless charity to make sure its going to the right places.

No Andy, it was a serious post, I dont find homeless people funny mate at all, thats why I always give, I also sponsor various projects throughout the world in my own small way, I just try to temper my posts with a bit of humour in what is an increasingly sad world of have and have not,s, so my point was just for you- Bristol, York, Bath, Oxford, Cambridge are all wealthy cities, thats why there are so many beggers or big issue sellers, I,m not knocking them, if I was in thier shoes I would go to the same places, as there is more disposable income than say..Salford.
but thanks for your polite reply.
