Before the rest of the mockery begins, I personally don't carry mace while exploring... I do however carry it when I go hiking or camping alone, which is quite often. So ;-p

Mr. Brown ran into a homeless guy in a tunnel one drunk night and was about to bite him. I mean we went in this way, and this was our damn tunnel. Well that's just how dogs think, especially since they usually walk point wether you want them to or not. I called him back and Roger introduced himself to us. Turns out he knew some people from a bar he used to live upstairs from that another guy with us knew. Small world. He almost shit himself because he thought the cops sent a dog in after him, but was confused since the dog came from inside the tunnel, not from the nearby manhole. I guess getting woke up at 2 am by dogs armed with headlamps would be a wierd thing for anyone. My friend told him about the 2 beers that he dropped while slithering through a small opening farther back down the tunnel that he could have and we BS'ed with Roger for like 45 minutes talking about secret government hiding places behind bricked off sections of tunnel that probably stored old comic books. Fuckin conspiracy I tells ya.

I drink gasoline for breakfeast and beer for dinner!
Any problem can be licked with a case of beer and a few sticks of dynamite.

We encountered an old guy named Roy. He was living on a mattress behind a garbage dumpster behind these two buildings we were exploring. Both of the buildings were industrial, but the offices in one had been used as a recording studio for a while and the other building was a nightclub for the last couple of years before Hurricane Katrina.

One day, we went over there and Roy was wearing a new outfit. He had gotten into the recording studio area and found some clothes....shiny silver slacks with a shirt to match. He looked like he was dressed in aluminum foil and he loved it.

Roy always swore that he didn't drink anymore, until he got into the building that had housed the nightclub. The nightclub had been open up until the night of August 27, 2005 when the first evacuation order was issued to New Orleans. There were still half-full mugs and glasses scattered on the various bars when we explored it a year after the hurricane.

The liquor storage room was in a section of the building where the roof had collapsed and was pretty inaccessible. I'd been through the place a few times and had never even gotten close to it.

Roy was a bit more determined and one day we went out there and Roy was passed out on his mattress with a Wal-Mart grocery cart FULL of unopened liquor bottles parked right next to him behind the dumpster. He had been through a few bottles at that point and over the course of the next week, the cart began to empty out. (I deal with a vendor a block away from the place and used to drive around the back of the building every time I went over there to toss Roy a pack of Pall Mall's and a cheeseburger).

At some point, I went back there and the mattress and dumpster had been set on fire and Roy was nowhere to be found.

Never did find out what happened to him.

in harvard square in boston there are a ton of hobos that live under the bridge on the charles. i had the priviledge of meeting several. Jackson was a fat ginger with dreds, who reeked of weed. Jeremy "saint chaos" was a cokehead neo-nazi who toted a walkman and made everyone he talked to listen to his story about how he once did coke and went swimming across the river (extremely boring story.) and my personal favorite, a guy named "trip". He had disgusting teeth, claims he was a pro-boxer and quit when he killed his best friends brother. he always asked me to fight him.


i still see them from time to time

seriously... this is the second thread i come across that is about homeless people, and can't understand why the hell some of you are so afraid of them.

some squatters are to be avoided, but homeless are usually peaceful folks not causing much trouble...

This may not apply to Hungary, but in the US, a lot of the homeless are Vietnam War veterans that came back after the war with severe Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and after 30 years of having that, not being able to live a normal life, etc. they can be very unstable. If the PTSD is really severe and you surprise him, he's bound to think it's the Viet Cong coming for him and launch a counterattack.

i live here in seattle, so hobos are nothing. i usually can get by saying my dad's name because he himself is homeless and EVERYONE knows him. very strange. otherwise, i talk with them, you know, and if they are crazy i hit 'em with my pipe wrench/giant allen key/insert tool here. i have come across one while i was in some woods with my friends. he had this really cool camp and we thought it was abandoned. we asked him if we could trade the hatchet we had wih us for the one he had. he actually said yes. it was pretty cool. the guy had made a toilet out of stuff, it even had a pit that closed off and it was a bucket uner a chair each with holes thru them. i sometimes want to go back and see if he's still there and talk to him. i came across a hobo's stuff in this (now demolished) house after me and my best friend climbed in the window. my friend freaked out, but i was calm and we just explored the house. we later found that one of the doors we neglected was unlocked so we exited.

I have seen fresh turds, old clothes, and the other day I was in a place when I went up to the second floor balcony had some old food and newer clothes along with a 8 inch dildo sitting on the ground, but no homeless guy, sort of glad too, because how uncomfortable would that be to stumble upon a homeless person while theyre trying to snap one out up the ass?

Ive never really had too much trouble, Ive heard people while Ive been in places, just sort of avoided them. Once in NYC I got cursed out by a homeless guy in a wheelchair with one leg who as he tried to get up told me he was goingto kick my fu#king ass near this old location after I politely asked if I could take a photo and offered him a few bucks. I just sort of looked at him like "your kidding me right"

And then on time there was this place I visited that was in Weird NJ magazine, so I took a trip out there and was exploring and up on the third floor was a homeless guy with a bad attitude, but I gave him a cigarette and he cooled down, then he told me about the place for a bit and invited me into the real cool part of the building through a trap door, next thing you know, Im in his room with this old mattress, hes got 3 hot lesbians going to town on each other, he offers me some hennessy or padron, and we played Nintendo Wii on his 50 inch plasma for the next 45 minutes. It was sick

Never a homeless guy, but we found where one lived once. It was an old office in a textile mill with boots, socks, and pages from an old playboy.

It happened on my first exploring mission. My friend and I were deciding whether or not it was safe to go into a condemned and rather dangerous looking old house. We could get in easily through an semi-open window close to the ground, but we decided against it as we had no tools or good flashlights or anything. We were very unprepared, and generally foolish. We decided to look around the house and found this garage. Looking around it in we realized that someone lived there. It reeked and there was garbage everywhere, but this small space was someone's home. I don't know how someone can live like that, this city sickens me. But yeah, there's my “homeless person” story.

those weren't my rice crispies. We didn't stick around to see who's they were.

Otherwise ever other hobo I've met was nice. Or asleep. I prefer them Asleep.

I've run across 'em a couple of times. I usually just politely say something like "Hey guys, nice place! Mind if I have a look around?" and make sure that they see my six-cell maglite named, for obvious reasons, "The Hobo Basher". Never had a problem.

I've come across squatters (some were really homeless, others might just be just punks who sometimes squat and sometimes live at their parents') about three different times that I went to this "abandoned" hospital. They were pretty nice and usually gave us a short tour of their space. Also, they were usually in the process of stripping all the brass, copper, and bronze out of the building. Since they were scrappers, they had plenty of money (for squatters), so they offered us some good weed (but I refused since I'm straight-edge).

One of them I knew from a street ministry my church does (it's kind of a punk kid church) and from a coffee shop I visit often. He is Wicken (it's popular in MN), but he said that we were the only Christians that he's ever liked. Which is good, since I found that he had made a knife out of tape and a long shard of glass that he said he made to defend himself. Anyways, I think Wickens are interesting to talk to...

I also met a homeless guy who squatted in that hospital for a long time (even though I never saw him there). He also went to my church. He told me he wants to go exploring in the tunnel systems in the Twin Cities here with a canoe with me and a couple other of our friends. Since he was a hobo, he probably knows of a lot of good places to explore. I'll take him up on it one of these days. He's a really cool guy, very easygoing. He wears this awesome pirate hat thing sometimes.

Of course, I've found lots of stuff from hobos. Once, I found a really cool shelter that a hobo had built in the woods. It was water-proof and was very well-insulated (a must in Minnesota). I have pictures of it somewhere.

wow. I'd buy that HOBO a big bottle of vodka just for a picture with him and that awesome sign; of course I'd have him go in to the packie and pick me up some "refreshments" too, cuz I'm only 19. Lol.
