Dear Hobo Lobbyists

Contrarian

I don't actually stab hobos. I sincerely apologise for every joke I have ever made about hobo-stabbery. I am actually a hobo supporter and would like more information about your fine organisation.

My ex-wife calls me a "lazy bum"...does that qualify me? If it does, put the effing knife down...thank you.

I mourn the death of hobo-stabbing jokes.

It really was the gift that kept on giving.

:sad:

Me, too. We need to make a commerical with Sarah McLachlan holding a dead hobo-stabbing joke while a sad, sad song plays in the bakeground. Or maybe she should be holding a dead sense of humor.

Stabbing?

Hobos and Bums are two different things. Hobos smoke cigars, bums ask for money from people who smoke cigars.

This guy gets it.

Right. I don't stab hobos, either.

I, too, would love more information on this fine organization. Perhaps a member directory???

Pardon me. I may have gotten lost on my way to the meeting of the International Association of Pine Cone Bird Feeder Manufacturers. Perhaps our organizations can work together?

I learned today (on MFP.com no doubt) that rodents like peanut butter. When is your organization going to stop ignoring this important issue? Birds and rodents getting married? It is written, birds and bees, not birds and rodents. Please respond to this important issue!

The difference between hobos and bums is a frequent topic of conversation in our car. We usually talk about hobos when we are in the car. Seems like the appropriate place. My husband knows a lot about hobos. He told me yesterday that Wil Wheaton tried to be a hobo.

Are we allowed to stab non-hobos or is all stabbing off limits?

Nice!

I've tried a few times, but my wife keeps finding me.

I must ask are you a member of the Hobo Union?

How does one become a hobo. Some days the idea is actually quite appealing.

First you need a sack.

Your objection to groups intermarrying did not rhyme, so I cannot take it seriously. Returning to the topic, ahem, perhaps I could get a tax break to employ hobos in the manufacture of pine cone bird feeders, thereby benefiting both organizations and their constituencies.

I once was asked why I eat like a hobo, does that qualify me?

Does a sack of medical bills count?

First you need a sack.

Or a large kerchief tied to the end of a stick.

And songs. You need stuff to sing while sitting around the campfire, cooking baked beans in a can and roasting hot dogs.

I will not allow the death of the hobo-stabbing joke. There must be someone within the Hobos Of Basic Origin Society (aka, HOBOS) that is willing to discuss this matter.

You need both a sack and a large kerchief tied to the end of the stick. But a true hobo never shows his sack in public, 'cause then he'd be a bum.

Also a mental illness is a handy item to have. Diagnosed or undiagnosed.
And a good hat.

Some of my best friends are hobos.

Iowa is not just the First In the Nation for presidential caucus(es), we are also the host to the National Hobo Convention, conveniently held the second weekend of every August. Come and get your HOBO on in Britt, Iowa

Oh... Please don't come for stabbing events.

I believe some of the presidential candidates might also like to come to the National Hobo convention.

I was always under the impression that hobos ride the rails through the countryside in empty boxcars...
