Low key unless you live in seattle or la maybe SF..YOU HAVE NO IDEA what a BUM is

[Yuzo Lightheart]

when i was in tokyo there was a serious problem of homelessness however all the bums out there were very sophisticated with the way they lived from bum cities like the one in ueno park where they were living in these boxes which are like mini houses. in the city they come out at night and i would rarely see a homeless person not just chilling in their box quietly reading a book. i never seen that many homeless people all just hanging out quietly and modestly reading a bunch of books

Every city has crackheads
Most cities have junkies

But BUMS...like...LIFERS.

Bums that have been begging in the same spot with the same question in the same gear for a decade.

With them GIANT duffle bags....you dont know bums until you see a dude with folded over boots go into a garbage can find a starbucks cup...blindly drink its contents, go to a starbucks and ask for a refill and to use the bathroom and get mad when they cant use the bathroom

You dont know bums until one comes into your job and yells "THIS IS WORSE...THAN MONKEY BUSINESS...THIS IS WORSE.....THAN MONKEY BUSINESS...THIS IS WORSE....." until escorted out

You dont know bums until youre walking back from a mariners game and stumble across a bum tent city in SoDo and see huge rats running thru sleeping backs and bums giving ZERO fukks

No city got bums on lock like seattle that ive seen.

bums aside, whats the seattle night life like? i've seen the statistics that its a buncha whites and asians with very few blacks, but do/did you come across a good amount of black folks still?

 

[shopthatwrecks]

Atlanta bums are there worst I've encountered.

I've been to Seattle, never been to SF


Even Boston has lifers, tho

 

[Heretic]

Yall aint lying about them frisco and seattle bums, they on a whole nother level. Now atl bums aint no joke either, shyt like lookin at 3rd world nikkas.

 

[MoneyTron]

I'm really skeptical of ATL bums because they act like they have no memory and sometimes have money and still be out there asking for more.

Let me tell what this one bum did about a year ago:

My GF and I drove separate cars to the date and after she had to go to the gas station. I followed her over there. Dude is outside begging for money to buy some food and drink.

I told her to keep it moving but my GF is too nice so she gives dude some money. I'm about 10 feet away like .

We leave the car at the gas station and walk because she has to go to the bathroom and won't use the gas station. We come back and air is loudly hissing out of one of her tires. I'm just sitting there with the Cosby.

Dude walks back up to us and says "I'm a former mechanic. For $15, I'll change that tire for you"

I look at him and my GF like .

It was plainly obvious dude cut her tires and to top it off, there was another car in the gas station parking lot with a flat tire. This dude had the audacity to take advantage of my GF's kindness, slash her tire while we were gone, then ask for more money. I haven't given out money to a homeless person after that. I probably will again one day but these dudes getting bold.

nikka, the bums in the chi will legit attack you if you don't give them money and they think you are soft. I was downtown yest for the first time in months and I legit seen the same bum I use to see for years under the same awning right by the seven eleven.

breh...bums in Chicago got nothing on those bums out west.
I never been to Seattle...but when I was in SF I was straight up


but there used to be a bum by my house when I lived in Hyde Park that would save all his money during summer/Spring and buy a train ticket to Florida in the winter

Atl are more thiefs and hustlers than beggers. Atl and chicago bums will con you and shyt. West coast bums just beg...and beg...and beg...and beg...and beg...and beg.....

 

[JoseLuisGotcha]

id rather be a bum in a fair weather city on the west coast then east coast having to survive harsh winters ....they have code blue advisories here that they bring in all the bums off the street cause they'll die
