I love how the girl tried to act all innocent on the tape. Puhlease you're both equally pathetic. Well all 3 of them actually.

2019-10-24 16:59:51 +0000 UTCThanks for the warning before the audio of the abusive behaviour. I hesitated, but listened anyway (damn my curious mind). The whole story makes me incredibly angry, but that “man”, he’s clearly a narcissist...and that’s the kindest thing I could think to say. I suppose most of the subjects of these podcasts are quite narcissistic really. It’s sad people like this exist.

2019-09-23 06:34:20 +0000 UTCThe homeless guy was always begging 3 blocks from my old apartment. He would stand at the exit of I-95 at Richmond Ave. when I found out it was the same man I had to laugh. Him and his girlfriend were always walking up and down the street so we came to know each other a little. They were both opioid addicts but sadly pretty much everyone there is. I remember his gf asking if I thought she could make money as a dancer since I said I had before. I couldn’t say that it had nothing to do with looks but the fact she hadn’t showered or brushed her hair in months not to mention the open sores and abscesses. I would help them out whenever I could but the last straw was one night at 3 AM my doorbell wouldn’t stop ringing. I went down and it was him, he wanted a cigarette. Like WTF? I lived on the 3rd (top) floor of a triplex. The 1st floor resident was around back and we were in front. Well he didn’t know which doorbell was mine so he decided to ring them all. Repeatedly. At 3 AM on a Monday night. For a cigarette.
