Abercrombie & Fitch has been battered with negative press ever since the CEO of the fashion clothing brand publicly announced that he only wanted ‘the cool kids’ to wear his clothing. That’s why he only hires attractive people and doesn’t make plus sizes of his clothes.

(Apparently no other clothing company hires attractive people…)

The web exploded in anger to this revelation.

As a way to stick it to the man, Gkarber set out to change the brand. He bought out all the A&F clothing he could find at the thrift shop, and headed to Skid Row in Los Angeles, one of America’s largest populations of homeless people, where he handed out the high fashion clothes to the needy.

Now, in just two days, the video has garnered over 1.9 million views, and a grueling debate over the content creator’s tactics.

Many feel involving the homeless was taking advantage of them. BeauxSelector asks, “Er…but what if the homeless don’t want to be ‘Fitched’?! I’m sure people living on the street might welcome new or warmer clothing, but to use them as pawns for this sort of agenda seems a bit misguided to be honest.”

The story is further covered on Time, Mashable, and NYDailyNews.

Back in March, comedy channel Whatever 2ND went viral with a video of a homeless man with a dancing mustache trick. The clip currently stands with over 1.8 million views

The crew wanted to help their new found friend out, so they set up a fund raising program on Idiegogo for him. Incredibly, the web offered over $2,600. 

The group added $400 to make the total donation a cool $3k. Clydesdale was more than thankful when he received his charity.

Last summer, Kim Clark and her team created a series entirely based on this powerful interview, called Big Questions. But only has the video gone viralviral, amassing over 350,000 views in just one day after appearing on Reddit.

Homeless man Ronald Davis discusses the trials and tribulations of being homeless in Chicago. He truly puts things in perspective when he tells the interviewers how he can’t get a job without a phone, and can’t get a phone without a job. 

“I’ve had people walk past me and say, ‘get a job bum.’ I’m not a bum. I’m a human being,” says Ronald as he holds back tears. 

Now, it seems Ronald is the new homeless star of the web, just like Ted Williams, aka The Man With The Golden Voice. The story has already been picked up by Gawker and HuffingtonPost

No matter where you are in the civilized world, it seems the same social problems persist. Homelessness is of course one of the most glaring issues around the globe.

Most people offer their change or few bucks to the unfortunate when they happen upon them on the streets, almost as an automatic reaction. 

But how would people react when an apparent homeless man starts offering them money?

Greg of Mediocre Films thought it would make for an interesting social experiment. He recruited his actor friend Bruce to dress as a homeless person would, and instead of asking for a buck, he offers passersby money. 

Some people take the money with a smile, but most are apprehensive to accept any gifts from someone seemingly less fortunate than them.

Remember the viralviral video of the girl with a funny talent who could make her eyebrows dance? That video amazingly stands with over 52 million views

Now, comedy channel Whatever 2ND may have come up with an unofficial sequel. In a completely serendipitous moment, they ran into a very nice homeless man who also had ‘a funny talent.’

Instead of being able to make his eyebrows dance, he can wiggle his epic mustache like no other. The secret is he uses his tongue.
