The act of using wet naps as a wash cloth or loofah to "clean" yourself.
This act is typically done by hobos, people on road trips, or people at music festivals that couldn't afford a hotel and now must do a "hobo shower" in the porta-potty.

The act of using the nail on your thumb that has grown very long as a shank because you don't have a real shanking device.
Peanut: "Hey that asshole over there called us gay."
(Friend walks over there and cusses him out)
Chapulin: "I hear that you were talking shit. Why don't you say that to my face, you pussy ass motherfucker!"
Big L: "What are you talking about? I barely even know you two!"
Chapulin: "Nigga, don't lie to me with your punk-ass self, man, don't make me hobo shank your pussy ass!"

A sport for those who like their leisure activities on the trampish side. Akin, to tossing the caber.
The rules are simple; the person who throws their hobo the furthest wins.
It gives the homeless a raison d'être once again.

Krystal the Magnificent: Tom, do you fancy partaking in a little hobo throwing this afternoon?
Tom: Sounds spiffing, I'll round up a couple of transients.

When a person (usually without income) trades an item of theirs for a different item that belongs to another person (regardless of whether they are there, or not, to agree with the trade.) It is not outright theft; rather an exchange of items, even if not verbally agreed to.

Bill forgot to bring a jacket to the festival. No problem... he simply headed for the bar and put on his hobo coat.

Feeling like a dirty hobo, is when you have been working for weeks straight without taking a shower or any form of cleaning.
