minus-squareOutlierBlue@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16arrow-down1·3 days ago I know in my city I’ve seen a “homeless” guy beg for money, with a cardboard sign. Then goes and gets into his sports car and drives off. Yeah? You’ve seen it? You saw him begging and saw him get in a luxury car and drive away? He parked right beside where he was begging? I call bullshit.
minus-squareLost_My_Mind@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down5·3 days agoYeah. I saw him begging for 3 weeks. Then one day he walked across the street to the parking lot, and got in a red sports car.
minus-squareScranulum@feddit.nulinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 days agoWell, it’s impossible for anyone who owns a red sports car to become homeless, so he must have been lying.
minus-squareLost_My_Mind@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down3·2 days agoWell, these sports cars usually sell for $100,000+. If he was homeless, he could sell the car, buy a house, and still have anywhere from 5k to 40k leftover depending on the house.
minus-squaresquaresinger@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·edit-26 hours agoSure, the car is red, so it must sell for $100k. It’s on the same level as the rest of your post. Pure lies, nothing else. Username does check out.
