Humans SUCK

I went out last night. It was supposed to be a relaxed "dinner and a movie" gig, which turned in to too many drinks over dinner and "fuck it let's go to Greenside!". Sigh.
So we get there and it's packed. There is always a queue at the stupid ATM. I believe in not swiping cards in clubs/bars. It is so easy to swipe a round of drinks a zillion times, but if you have X amount of money in your wallet, then it's like "OK.. I can only put this amount of alcohol in to my face then I must stop." No? Just me?

Anyway. There was a queue full of "poppies" in heels and too much make-up. Whatever.
Next to the ATM, there is this little, elderly homeless man sitting there, working with some beads and crafts, obviously needing the light of the ATM to do his thing to sell his stuff to feed his mouth.
So the poppies are chattering loudly about how they can't wait to get tequila or something annoying. The little homeless man gave them a big gummy smile and said "You know, I don't like tequila, I'm more of a whiskey man myself". I thought that was really funny. He was obviously making a joke. He went on to say that Blue Label is his favorite.
The stupid girls ignored him and pulled disgusted faces at each other.
How mean.
I just looked at them and thought "How dare you".
That man was sitting on the side of the road, at like 10pm, by himself, trying to find some light to make things to sell. Yet he is still smiling and making conversation with strangers. Strangers drawing money for tequila, and bragging about it, while that man probably didn't have money for food.
I've been upset about it the whole day. I can't shake the way that those girls looked at him like he was dirt. I mean, why couldn't they just have been nice? Smiled back? Why is it so hard to just be nice? Why did they think that they were somehow better than him?

I hate human nature. This is why I don't care for money. Because of situations like that. And people like that. Just because someone does not have money does not mean that they are shit people. From where I was standing, he was a really nice, friendly, hardworking guy.

I am sad that I have money and that that man doesn't.

I hate it.
