To see all the bullshit stories/rants/petty grievances of Kieran’s Humor go to https://kieranhumor.com. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas -- the beggars are beginning to frolic in the streets of Tucson. I've got a lot of sympathy for people forced to live outside. I won't even go camping. When a homeless person asks for help in the summer, I'm ready to give a few bucks. Don't care if they run straight to the meth dealer or the liquor store when it's 100 or more. Hell, they deserve some kind of relief if they are out in the heat. But this time of year, most beggars are obviously snowbirds. They flee the cold and ice of where-ever the fuck they are from and "winter" in Tucson or Phoenix.
There's one douchebag millennial that hangs around the restaurants near my office. He's extremely polite, more than a little overweight, and pretty pale (snowbird giveaway -- the local homeless are dark or red from the summer sun). Portly-pale boy always asks for money to "buy something for lunch." I'd give if this was August or September. But I've seen this kid the last 3 years, and it's always November-March. Fuck you snowbird. I've been working my whole life to become a snowbird, and I'm still stuck in Tucson all summer. Check that, I have two homes - a winter and summer home if you will. But my fucking summer home is in Tucson. If you think this is funny or worth a read, you can tell Kieran's Humor that writing has value. Pledge a future subscription.
