Book hobo

(verb) To hang out in a book store reading a book that you do not intend to buy. Used most commonly with manga.

(noun) One who book hoboes.

The hobo part of the term is derived from either the fact that you are mooching, you are to cheap or penniless to pay for the book, or you don't plan on giving the book a home.

Zack: So what did you do this weekend?
Hikaru: I book hoboed at Borders.
Zack: Yeah, they have a groovy manga section.

hobo gloves

gloves with the fingertips cut off. sometimes seen on hobos, bums, tramps, etc. Often home-made (or homeless made in a hobo's case) all one needs is an old pair of gloves and some scissors. Some gloves are also made without any fingertips to begin with, but they are not true hobo gloves.

I just made myself a pair of hobo gloves out of a small pair of old gloves.
