I went to Manoa safeway this morning before work to buy breakfast. I was waiting about 5 minutes behind this homeless guy who was buying an energy drink with pennies... When he finally got his receipt, he walked to another register and grabbed a handful of plastic bags and a paper bag. The cashier took all the plastic bags back and watched him until he left the store.

When I left the store, I saw the same guy walking in the direction of my car. He went up to my driver's side door and was trying to open it like it was his car ... This all happened when I was about 10 feet away from my car. I just said "excuse me" and he mumbled something and walked to the chevron by mcdonalds. Good thing I didn't press the unlock button on my car. I don't know what I would have done if he actually sat inside my car.

 

thats insane! i see stuff like this all the time in waiks!

 

oh wow wtf... sounds like he was hoping to steal some change... damn crackheads...

 

wow, what homeless guy was this? the only guy i can think of is "mister flute"

 

Being homeless in Hawaii isn't such a bad thing. You
could have the best tan on the planet. Always a place
to wash and full garbage cans from the tourists...

 

I will beat him down and steal from him, especially the energy drink..Mmmm

 

haha, who is mister flute? I don't think I've seen him before. This is the first time I saw this guy. He had a cap (i think it was blue), white or semi brown shirt wearing a fanny pack. He had a lot of facial hair. I saw him walk up to a grey Acura TL after my car but he did not try to open the door. I lost sight of him when he went by the bathroom area of the chevron.

 

i thought everyone in Manoa knew mister flute. hes the black guy that always sits outside safeway playing his flute, a really nice guy, unless you walk between him and his flute case, then he goes ALL nuts!

 

I think the homeless guy on kapiolani blvd. is crazy

 

Oh **** lol Mr. Flute... I always saw him when I used to live in Manoa.

 

In Kaneohe, our homeless guy was named Mango Man because when you teased him he would throw mangoes at you. He had hair that was like an ironing board, it was long and looked stiff like an ironing board.

 

ok, i know who you're talking about now haha. i haven't seen him recently so i forgot about him.

 

Kailus peeps stole him. haha. I think he got the name for sleeping under the mango trees.??? Dat fcuka was schtank though.

 

I don't know if you stole him because that guy could walk forever. We once saw him in Waimanalo when we were going to Makapuu. Maybe Kaneohe is getting to crowded so he decided to go to Kailua.

 

**** that. it's a bad and growing epidemic problem here. bad enough the mainland govmt's fly their homeless here. talk about passing the buck. our shelters arent big enough nor can they provide enough.
