Cardboard boxes do not make houses

edited October 2007 in Social Entropy++
Currently I've kindly been turned into a bum overnight, and surviving a town with no place to crash is both hard and filled with gas stations.

Any tips on how to survive as a hobo or bum? If you were one, just what would you do?


Don't eat the breakfest sandwiches at 7-11.

    Pretty swanky cardboard box to have internet access.

    Be sure to mark your territory this is important! Even if it means using something other than pee to do it then so be it!

    Wear tons of clothes even it's 100c. outside you have to keep those layers on!

    Instead of making a home out of the cardboard box, make a time machine.

    Then go back in time and alter the circumstances that led to you losing your place.

    If you are low on money, there is no good reason to spend it on internet, which you can get for free at a library.

    You obviously have not yet developed the appropriate scrounging mentality.

    Also, start begging.

    One evening as the sun went down and the jungle fires were burning,
    Down the track came a hobo hiking, and he said "Boys, I'm not turning."
    "I'm heading for a land that's far away beside the crystal fountains;"
    "So come with me, we'll go and see the Big Rock Candy Mountains."

    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains the jails are made of tin
    And you can walk right out again as soon as you are in
    There ain't no short handled shovels, no axes saws or picks
    I'm a goin to stay where you sleep all day
    Where they hung the jerk that invented work
    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

    Man, that does not sound like a smart idea.

    Hey you should totally do what I already told you to do and what others are telling you now.

    I recommend cardboard boxes that have a waxy coating, they won't deteriorate as quickly as a regular one.
    And get a stray cat, so you two can be hobo buddies.

    And lastly, what chunk of cardboard you won't be using, turn into a sign and warn people about their ever impending doom. Bonus points for quotes from Revelations and Nostradamus.

    The punk rolled up his big blue eyes
    And said to the jocker, "Sandy,
    I've hiked and hiked and wandered too,
    But I ain't seen any candy.
    I've hiked and hiked till my feet are sore
    And I'll be damned if I hike any more
    To be buggered sore like a hobo's whore
    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.
