This term is most commonly reffered to the
guy on the sidewalk off one of the exits out of a wal-mart parking lot. He carries with him a pathetic character, usually a dog, old clothes, a sack or backpack, and, lastly, a sign that sometimes has words spelled wrong, consisting of phrases such as
Work for Money, Need
Help (well duh!), or Need money for food (this is most common, and most likely means i need money to get alcohol or else i might sober and do something with my life). Most
people, usually pass this person by, knowing he won't do anything but spend their money on beers at the tavern, and be back out on the sidewalk in a day or two. The real assholes just buy them food, and
piss the homeless
guy off.
I saw that Wal-Mart Homeless Guy out there again, and almost felt
bad, but then i realized he has no motivation, and will buy
drugs or
alcohol, so I just decided to keep my money, and use it on things of accomplishment not pity.
