    Default You bums

    So like, after an interesting conversation with foa about our encounters with hoboes, I started thinking.

    "How many other people have had a rather noteworthy experience with the less fortunate?"

    So, have you? Hobo stories are always a good read ;]

    I'm studying about hoboes for my history lesson tomorrow. It is interesting. I feel sorry for them- they really deserve better...I've met some before. At least, I think they were hoboes. I will now remove my pointless self and leave behind this pointless post instead.
    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    NO! I'm rich so I don't deal with the less fortunate people! >:O
    Just kidding, I also step over them with respect.

    I got mistaken for a girl by one a few weeks ago. Although, in my defense my hair is kind of long and he saw me from behind.

    I once bowed to a hobo after giving him 67p. I felt like he deserved a bow as well as money. I'd have juggled for him too, if I knew how to juggle and if I had juggling balls on me at the time.

    No, serious. I told him my hobo stories.

    One time I was shopping on Franklin St. in Chapel Hill and it was dark, but not really late so I was like "I will be ok by myself!" No. I'm walking back up the big hill and this guy walks by me and he goes "Mmm mmm MMM my sweet Miss Peaches!" and I was like *walks faster*.

    And then once I was with Alli and Matt (DoomAntenna and Yggdrasil respectively) eating on Hillsbourough St. in Raleigh and this man comes up to us and he smells like rum and he has ONE EYE and the other one doesn't even have a PATCH or anything, it was just an eyesocket and he gets right between me and Alli and asks us for change and Matt gave him some and we were all like *walks faster*.

    And I used to work in soup kitchens and Christian Missions all the time, and they all liked me there and stuff.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    Once my mom was mobbed by homeless kids because she gave some money to one. One of the kids ran across the street and got hit by a motorcycle O_o

    We were in Vietnam though, so she wasn't hurt very badly. They drive slowly and chaotically there
