also known as a "public fountain" to civilized people. Stupid hobos undress and bathe in them in the dead of night (although by the looks of it, most hobos never shower at all).

Little child: Mommy can i throw a penny into the fountain??

Mother: Ok honey, just watch out for that naked hobo standing in the middle, he thinks this is a damn hobo shower.

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.
Guy 1: Bro, there's a naked dude in the bathroom cleaning himself with a wetnap!
Guy 2: aw dude he's taking a hobo shower...he's probably going to the phish concert that's in town.
