The context of the following conversation is Walking along the street, Robin passed a group of homeless people begging so Robin gave them money.:
Robin says I hate it when those pan handlers are all up in your face on Main Street. It happened to me again today..
The friend responds Again? That is the third time this week! What is it about you that makes you a magnet for these creeps?.
Robin responds I don't know. I try to be nice to them. I even gave them more money today than I did the last two times, and that did not make them go away..
The friend responds You gave them money? What are you, nuts?.
Robin responds They looked hungry. They wouldn't take checks though, so I had to pay in cash..
The friend responds Friend, if you keep giving them cash, they are never going to leave you alone!.
