Someone who will stop you as you walk and tell you:
a) You look good, son. Naw, naw don't leave, I jus wanna talk ta ya...
b) I will take verbal abuse for change
among many other statements. They will often smoke weed or crack right on the street, and the cops don't care. They have an 'ignore the bums' policy.
These bums will often wander onto campus to have enlightening conversations about the bible, only to pass out in the middle of a pathway.
They are generally nice people, some even have advanced degrees, but somewhere along the line (around 1967-1975) they just fucked up and couldn't recover. Most of the sleep in people's park.

Get the berkeley fog mug.When you first arrive in Berkeley, you don't think the people are very attractive, but as you notice how crappy the city is, you start to think that a 6 is 9, and then you find it even easier to hook up with people since outsiders look real good to them.
