May dala akong pizza tapos may batang nanglilimos. Binuksan ko yung pizza box at sinabing, gusto mo? Kuha ka. Barya na lang daw. Edi okay. Wala akong barya.
I got a bit offended, which sounds stupid, I know. Is my pizza not good enough for you? Chz.
Yung isa naman, I lost my wallet and I need money, can you help me? Speaking in good english pa siya. I already know that modus, dude. You're not the first one to say those lines. Punta ka sa pulis at sa kanila ka umutang so you owe them one. No, I'm not giving you my stupid fucking number 🙄
Kaya ayaw ko na din mamansin eh. The list of types of people to avoid grows every day.
Never in my life na magbibigay ako ng pera sa mga nanlilimos (especially mga bata at kabataan). Pag pera binigay mo, malaki ang tsansa na gagamitin nila sa masama iyan. Sa Monumento sa Caloocan maraming bata nanlilimos doon at kapag binigyan mo pera pupunta sila sa gilid magra-rugby lang HAHAHAHAHA
I think may batas na nagbabawal din talaga magbigay ng limos sa mga ganiyan? Pero mukhang di ko naman nakikita kung ini-e-enforce ba yun.
Kung may extra food or water, go lang mas okay pa iyon.
May batas?? Di ko alam yun ah. How would they enforce that kung ang dami din nanglilimos in the first place.
Hindi naman talaga ako nagbibigay ng pera, food lang din kapag may baon na sobra.
Yup, Anti-Mendicancy Law by Marcos Sr. in 1978. But like you said, wala naman sumusunod diyan and wala naman nahuhuli.
Hindi rin ako naglilimos most of the time. Pero pag may lumapit para manghingi ng pamasahe, kahit feeling ko scammer lang, nagbibigay ako. Na-experience ko kasi na maipahiya ng fx driver para sa ten pesos na fare (nakasakay na ko sa fx nung narealize ko na wala na pala akong pera kaya nakiusap sa kanya). Nagtatrabaho na ko nun btw.
