Homeless people stories
-
2020-09-18 at 1:25 AM UTCThese can be either stories of yourself being homeless, or other homeless people you have seen.
I have never seen a homeless person and I've never been homeless so i don't have any stories. -

2020-09-18 at 1:58 AM UTCI lived out of a Dodge Caravan for the better part of a year.
It was quite something.
I parked at a rest area for an entire month at one point.
My crazy/unusal stories mostly have to do with some of the people I met along the way.
One time I was chased out of a neighbourhood because a neighbourhood watch type guy thought I was up to no good.
Another time, I woke up to a hooker opening my car door at 6 am to rifle through my shit. I had an issue with the locks so I couldn't always lock the doors at night.
There was also a time when an elderly South Asian man propositioned me inside my storage locker where I kept all my shit. He pulled down the door and then slid his hand up my shirt.
I also had a few memorable exchanges with the popo, but they were actually generally pretty cool about things.
Apparantly, at least in Canada, there are no laws against pulling over and sleeping in your car on the side of the road. -
2020-09-18 at 2:25 AM UTCI have way too goddamn many to tell. Anyone in any city has surely seen all kinds of crazy homeless people shit. I generally spent my time in a heroin/crack/meth/whatever else I could find haze and just hope the rats didn't bite me while I'm sleeping on a concrete block under the bridge. There were fun times, there were not so fun times. An experience you need to have yourself to really understand.

2020-09-19 at 2:54 PM UTCI lived out of my vehicle, and a tent, from September 2013, to March, 2014. I was in Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missisippi, and Alabama. I did speed, and explored.

Even when it's not illegal here the cops will give you shit for it because they THINK it's illegal. I have a friend who was sleeping in his car at Walmart, which specifically allows people to park their cars/sleep in them on their property overnight. He got an (overturned) DUI and some possession/paraphernalia charges. A lot of people will sleep in just Walmart parking lots when traveling because they're everywhere and they know they're always allowed to chill there, but cops are fucking stupid and try arresting people there anyway.
I know I've been hitchhiking where it's legal (was off the interstate, hitchhiking specifically where a state sheriff told me to if I didn't want to get arrested) and been told straight up to 'Get out of my town or I'll arrest you" and then was followed as I walked 2 hours out of this small town to the next small town, where I got a ride from a nice cop hitchhiking on that same exact road.
Would be nice if cops knew the law or at least common knowledge -

I have never seen a homeless person and I've never been homeless so i don't have any stories.
thats because you never leave your parents basement except for that time you go turned out by those homeless junkies
But yeah I've mentioned this before when I was 19 I was homeless for a couple of weeks, I lost my first apartment and my parents said I could stay with them but that didn't last long I'd just go stay at my friends place in my hood and eventually told my parents to kick rocks and was homeless for about like 2 weeks.
I still had a job and stuff, I went to the salvation army after work because I was told that was the thing to do by some bum and I was like "AAHH HEEELLL NAAH!" because it was full of nigs and they wouldn't feed me because I showed up too late because I had a job I was at. So I was like alright fuck this and they were like "HEY IF YOU LEAVE YOU CAN"T COMEBACK!" and I was like "good" and I just slept by the lake or in the condos they were building at the time.
There was one time I was waiting for the bus to go to work and it was hot as fuck outside and I was sitting under the shade and this lady pulled up, really nice real pretty asked me If I needed a ride and I was like "yeah sure" and I told her was just heading to work and she didn't really ask me if I was homeless or anything but I think she figured and she gave me some money. I've always remembered her because in a way I felt like she's a guardian angel.
But then things took a completely opposite turn where I was walking around the drag near UT after work and I went into "dreamers" this porn shop and I looked around and when I was leaving this chicken hawk (I didn't know there were guys like this at the time, I was pretty naive) came out and asked me whats up and I just told him I got off work and was just hanging waiting for my friend to get back to me. And I'm sure he knew I was homeless but he asked me if I wanted to go to dinner and he said wherever you want to go so I chose my favorite bbq place by the lake "the county line" it was good had pork ribs, but we ent up getting booze and going to his hotel room downtown and he put on some porn and I just got like a weird vibe and text my friend andrew to pick me up NOW. And the guy was like Ohh heyy Ill take you to your friend.. and I was like its cool and just took a couple of beers and left.
But yeah I would never want to be homeless again, especially if you don't have a job but there were some pretty fun times I had, it was in a weird way an adventure. Austin used to be a lot cooler back then
But yeah I ent up meeting "jerry" for the second time on the bus and he was a few years older than me and was concerned that I have all my shit on my back and was like I'll talk to robert if you can live here if you just pay the electricity, it was a catalyst for a lot more adventure times.

2020-09-19 at 7:53 PM UTCBill Krozby didnt you just admit you've barely ever even left Austin?
Hitchhiking across the country isnt for the weak-willed. Having a bisexual experience at the end of it, isnt either. It's a tale only few can tell and it's far more interesting than some fat slob who sits at their computer their whole life criticizing something like that while they gorge on cheese and watch price is right reruns all day.
Also interesting is candy "attempting" to insult §m£ÂgØL for getting a D in his B one time when shes a self admitted bisexual. Things that make you go hmmmm.
I'm think I'm gonna go get F'd in the A today just so I can say I've done it too.
But me,I've never been legit homeless. A little bit of couch surfing for a week or two at a time back in the day is about it, and sleeping under a parking ramp stairwell one night was the only night I ever didnt sleep inside of a house/apt/hotel except for going camping of course.
I like the stories about people traveling abroad, roaming the land and living for really really cheap. I might end up doing that in the relatively near future.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
