S.O.B (Son of a Bum)

I want to know who the idiot was that decided volunteering is a good thing. It doesn't make me feel "all good inside." Rather, I am outraged by the fact that I spent precious moments of my life helping the helpless. They got to their lowly state; they can get themselves out. By helping them, through food drives or just plain monetary donations, we are reinforcing their terrible behavior. Helping the less fortunate would make as much sense as Pat Saylor running the CHHS Highlight. Oh wait, she does.

More often then not, they're not really bums at all. I've seen many a so-called hobos get up from their street corner or underpass, toss their carboard sign into the back of a mercedes, and drive off only to park it on the Hill.

Don't listen to the celebrity endorsements either. Afterall, they're getting a big fat check in the mail for their appearance and I assure you they won't turn around and donate it to the cause they were supporting in the advertisement.
