People Who Have Clearly Never Heard The Phrase “Beggars Can’t Be Choosers”

Sometimes people find themselves in sticky situations. They lose a job, or they had a rough start, or they just need a helping hand. Asking for help can be a tough thing to do.

This is somehow both infuriating and so entertaining. Why do people think they're entitled to free stuff? Everything costs money— whether you get it from the store or from a person on Facebook.
