After trying the houdini last night, I thought I'd surprise my girlfriend in bed tonight by giving her the hobo.

a hobo is an itinerant worker, a career which sprang up during the depression. A hobo, unlike a bum or a tramp, is more than willing to work, but mostly for a short duration, as their main impetus is travel, the love of the journey above the actual destination. A bum is stationary, feeding off of those unfortunate enough to cross his path; a hobo merely travels from town to town, finding work when he can, but only for the sake of financing his next adventure. NEVER call a hobo a bum...they'll kick your sorry no-bo ass!

Hobos are a peaceful people.Being homeless and pennyless, similar to MC Hammer. They go place to place taking money from people for doing odd jobs, whether it be pulling weeds, kiiling roaches, cleaning roach poop, or eating roaches.
They're like uh...drifters. Telling stories to whoever they can

It is similar to the popular phrase, no homo, in the sense that No HoBo is a defensive-response mechanism. This means that No HoBo can clear ones own slate of any susceptible homeless-like qualities that has previously been placed on trial before your respective peers.
Adequate Times To Utilize No HoBo:
1. When you asks for money, food, or in a rare case clothing.
2. When you bother a cashier at a place of business to supply you with an item for free.
3. When you abuse the kindness of others as a means to get by in life, while barely presenting (if presenting at all) an equivalent exchange.
Caution : USE WISELY AND SPARINGLY, "NO HOBO" CANNOT SAVE YOU EVERYTIME WITH EVERYBODY.

a hobo spends their time riding the rails and is happy with a bottle of beer a gutair and some friends. hobos are not at all to be confused with bumbs and tramps because they are unhappy and bitter about their homeless state and hobos are happy and they make the best of their situation
