Ah, the old "homeless people will just blow money you give them on shit" trope.
Despicably inhumane bullshit, not funny.

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Packed together with "Poor people are subhumans and are supposed to suffer".
The joke here is that as biological organisms, the imperative to reproduce is genuinely more important than short term food and shelter and this man is making intelligent use of his resources to fill his life's purpose. It only looks absurd.
Love and acceptance are a basic necessity though.
I guess (charitably) the author could be saying the guy is wasting his money by going to a club, but it really reads like punching down on desperate and lonely people.
It's kind of fun to look at how people feel about charity and rank it on Maslow's Hierarchy of needs. You can almost tie how good of a person they are to how far up the pyramid they get with their charitable actions. That money wasn't meant for anything above tier 1/2 needs, Love is a tier 3 need.
I don't get it.
did it work?
