Choosing Beggar Demands Extra Chocolate at Christmas Charity
The Original Post
I get a free Christmas dinner package every year from a local organization. Turkey, potatoes, onions, sweet potato, chocolates, a pie… it’s awesome and every year as a single parent I’m always so grateful for the help.
So today I go to pick it up and there is a woman screaming about how she wants a second box of chocolates instead of the sweet potato. She was told no, this is the package and they might as well have spat in her face the way she reacted. Going on how her kids are going to be hungry and it’s going to be there fault.
I just took my hamper. Said thank you and scurried away. Haha.
What Reddit Said
Redditors were absolutely baffled by the woman’s logic. The top comment pointed out the absurdity of claiming kids would go hungry without extra chocolate instead of nutritious sweet potatoes. Moreover, many noted that the hamper already provided a complete, balanced meal with protein, vegetables, and carbs.
However, commenters weren’t just confused—they were genuinely angry. Most expressed disbelief that someone could complain about free food during the holidays. In fact, one popular comment suggested the volunteers should have replaced her chocolates with Brussels sprouts as punishment.
The Verdict
The overwhelming consensus: this woman is the ultimate choosing beggar. Reddit unanimously supported the charity’s decision to maintain their standard hamper contents. This is a perfect example of choosing beggar behavior where someone demands modifications to free charitable assistance. The woman’s entitled attitude toward the choosing beggar Christmas charity hamper situation left everyone shaking their heads at her entitled behavior.
