    And then i thought, that’s what i’m going to use it on.

    That’s bad and you shouldn’t do that, but you’re also a functional adult with disposable income. The homeless guy is obviously not. The money you give him he will use to remain homeless. If you want to donate money there is no shortage of non-profits that will use that money to actually help him, as well as other homeless.

    Well, he lives in a box, what do you want him to do? save it up and buy a wall unit?

    Like, literally anything else? Food, water, a blanket, a ride to a job interview, hand warmers, shirts, socks, toothpaste etc. etc. etc., not a lot of deep thought required there.

            What part of your comment do you think indicates that you’re not a professional clown with a master’s degree in kinesiology?

                  Point out the part of your previous statement that indicates you’re not telling homeless people how to live, and the bits that indicate you’ve done anything to assist them.

                    So you’re telling me you can’t point out the part of your previous statement that indicates that you’re not a professional clown with a master’s degree in kinesiology?
