Well I already posted this in a smaller thread about weird people on buses, but I wanted to hear some other homeless people stories, it seems like everybody always has a strange encounter with a homeless guy or just random stranger at that.
Well I was waiting for the bus, playing with some apps on my iphone, then this hobo dressed like a pirate, walks up to me (i'm with a couple of friends), and points at me saying in a pirates accent, I KNOW YOU!
I'm like are you sure about that?
"AYE, I know who yew aaar... yeeew maight not know the secrets of who I am, But now I shall, unRAVELEM FOR YAH!"..
and he begins explaining thoroughly his journeys in the seas around Australia and the mystical creatures he's captured/fought with, all this talk about epic journies and stuff, still talking in a pirates accent,
and after when he was done with the 5 minute tale of the seas and his mighty pirate family crew, he yells out to everyone,
I'm THA JERSEY!..., Then looks around at everyone,
THA!!!.... JERSEY, and he rips open his pirate shirt to reveal a tattoo of a heart/jolly rogers flag on his chest with the writing - THE REBELS, and yells
I COME FROM A FAMILY OF THAs... WE ARE ALL THAs, and ONE DAY YOU SHALL SEE,, THE TRUTH..
And we chose youuuu, BOY...
and starts blabbering on about something I coudn't understand in his thick accent,
after about another 30 seconds of blabbering he starts to cry about whatever he was talking about,
like he looked really sad and was tearing up bad, and i had no idea what he was talking about..
after a good while, he then quickly wiped up and was like..
WELL THEN, AYM OFF NOW!
I'll BE SEEYEN YEW AGAIN, BOY!
and he walks off into the distance just before my bus arrives..
My friends and I all just looked at each other.
This was the day I fell in love with San Fransisco.
One day you shall see the truth
Brutal. Your day will come.
Wish I was there for this one. Last year, my brother gave a hobo some money down in Austin and the hobo gave him an Atari complete with Space Invaders, Pac-Man, and Frogger. After that, he gave the hobo more money.
Wish I met that hobo. Had lots of fun with Space Invaders.
You lucky bastard.
They used to rule this world when it was under water.

wow that's nice. the most any hobo has ever offered me was a bag that was leaking what i like to believe was lemonade.
A long time when I was around 6, I was in Toronto with my family and as I was sitting on my dad's shoulders, some guy with a huge, burly beard came up and said to me, "arrr, horw yar doin' kid" or something like that. It was pretty funny.
I never meet interesting people. :(

Oh wait I did.
Some dude came up to me and said "Fook me my lover, you're tall aren't you?"
He was quite fat and had a big beard, must of been a farmer.
Let's all tell stories about the encounters we have had with hobos that never really happened!
I once went to the moon with a hobo, But then he had to depart because he was talking to the aliens :saddowns:
Maybe he was just trying to entertain you? You know, so you're more likely to give him some spare change.
I danced with a homeless man once at a concert.

It's what i thought, you know 'cause i was on my iphone, and he saw it and came up to me thinking I was rich or something i would spare him something, but the way he just took off at the end, I was like oh..
I met a hobo while walking down a dirty street and he looked me in the eye, and without a word handed me a suitcase.
It had a million dollars and a woman's severed head inside.
As I walked away he shouted back to me. A few days later we were in his secret hoboship heading towards venus where we did primal mating rituals with aliens by dancing on a disco floor.
I was walking down the street when i was around 12 with my sister and her 2 friends, they had just got new high heels and everyone thought they were hookers looking back on it now. Which was why a drunk hobo asked for one of my sisters friends to kiss him for 1 dollar.

My dad is the 'co-ordinator' for my local night shelter. One of the homeless guys has a laptop and has been staying at the place for more than 2 years. He wanted an anti-virus program on it so he gave it to my dad to give to me. I was downloading one when I decided to look at the history in chrome, he was looking at tranny porn.
Most of the people their are crack up as, but then again some have kidnapped old ladys. O.o

That's quite the yarrrrrrn. :banjo:
I was like "what the hell" when I saw this but then I also saw that it took place in San Fransisco and then it made sense
Fact: Hobo's earn more in a month from begging that an above average person does.
Think of it: 8 hours of begging, you get 125 dollars right? do that times 25 and you get ~3000 dollars where no tax or anything had to be paid over it.
There's always drugos at Town-Hall ticket machines asking for your change, I always give them 20 cents or something.
I gave a homeless guy 20 bucks one time, he didn't even say god bless :(

There are actually "professional" panhandlers in some cities that make a decent living. They have their corner, they dress up in their nicest rags, and get a decent sum of cash. They have houses or apartments, they have lives, but they pretend they're bums for their job.

Every once in a while when I see the bums with the "Why lie, I want beer" signs I give them a little bit. At least they are honest.

Did you know that there is an official Independent Party called the Pirate Party? [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirate_Party_%28United_States%29]Yeah, that shit exists.[/url]
i was walking into this store a few days ago and there was this hobo walking around going "we can't do it general kenobi! we can't do it!" and then he said something about the government.

Goddammit... I was about to type that...

they collected money from deluxe hugs (for a euro) and with all of their money they took a hobo to a nice restaurant and paid for his meal.
