Interesting, actually I have a friend who, just for kicks, was a hobo for 3 months when he was 19. He rode a bus out to the west coast, worked as a waiter, alternated between sleeping at bus stops and such until he roomed up with a hilarious drug addict on the fringe on San Francisco, and then came home a few months later. Because he wasn't legally a tenant of the guy who owned the crappy apartment he was homeless.
Oh and he bathed in a fountain in Detroit lol!

You're a moron.

I disagree, that sounds like an awesome experience.

I think the implication is that his friend [i]chose[/i] to live a bohemian lifestyle for fun - like backpacking or something, lots of people do it when they're young. I don't think he's talking about a friend who was genuinely forced into rough sleeping for financial/drug abuse reasons or anything.

That does sound like one hell of a learning experience... might actually try that one day.
