Remember t'other week when I happened to mention;
"Yay! First day back at work, and I already has had generic waste and vitrolic abuse flung at me by the Iceland tramp"
Well, that very self-same Knight Of The Road is in Todays Evening News bewailing his lot on the horror of being homeless. Apparently "thousands of people who walk by him every day - some give him money or food, some attack him during the night, most simply ignore him".
Well, on account of his flinging litter at people, and shouting abuse at them, it's not exactly a surprise now, is it!
But it's oh so hard, being homeless in cold, being fed only spare frozen burgers by passing Icelanders.
But he copes with the Ice Age glacial temperature drop, as he copes with everything else.
By indulging in Solvent Abuse.
Sloooooooooow news day then!
Read orl abaht it! Homeless man is homeless! Solvent abusing, detrius throwing, threatening shouty tramp turns to solvent abuse because it's a bit chilly out. Beggar often bullied and beat up, no doubt because he was mouthing off or chucking stuff at people. Again.
Well, who'd've thunk it!
I've no sympathy. After having him lob a half full cup of coffee at me and into his own personal litter bin (the St Stephens subway1) and suffering his tirade of abuse, he deserves everything he gets.
Iceland should kick him out, bung him in a hostel, sort his addiction out and get him a job. Surely there are charities to cater for homeless folk... or has he been kicked out of them all for being a git?
Yes, there are homeless people in desperate need out there in the Big Freeze, so why not focus on more genuine deserving cases, rather than some selfish, nasty abusive no-mark.
Grrrrrrrr!
