Well last week Saturday I went with my fam to do major shopping for food and other items. As we were heading back to the car we were accosted by this guy collecting charity. We didn't really have anything much left to spare and the ATM was a distance away (and it was raining to boot). So we kinda tried to gently tell the guy off. But he was real persistent and basically said in public with other people watching that we were stingy etc. and it was a shame given the season - without even knowing us or what we do. We do give to charity and I volunteer at a shelter. But anyway the guy wouldn't quit and judging my his T-shirt I saw that he was Catholic.
So I got damn mad and said I don't see why they were pestering us for money for the poor when the pope and friends live in palaces and dine of gold and silver and cloth themselves in brocade. They should ask their papal father for some handouts, that is if he can spare some money given his anti-abortion, anti-gay, anti-birth control drives and child molestation cover-ups and lawsuits. It stunned all present and we made a quick getaway. I don't know if it really ranks as stupid but I sure as HELL don't regret it.
