Well I'll be dam'ed it's the Gypsysailor. I wondered what happened to you.
As usual you are wrong again. Not all poor people are "hobos", as you refer to them by using the term impecunious Americans. A hobo is a migratory worker or a vagabond, especially one who is impoverished. The term originated in the western—probably northwestern United States around 1890. Unlike a "tramp", who works only when forced to, and a "bum", who does not work at all, a "hobo" is a traveling worker. So you should really be asking is, is it normal for a bum to be snobby not a hobo.
You'd have to be pretty unobservant to think I am the sailor.
The rest of your response makes no sense either, unsurprisingly.
1. Impecunious-Americans was a joke, a lá PC culture.
2. Thanks for copy/pasting the wikipedia entry for "hobo" but it's irrelevant as the word usage has evolved. Most people don't care nor distinguish hobos from bums at all, let alone in casual conversation.
3. The majority I encounter are more hobo-like anyway if you really want to be pedantic. My area is not anyplace where "bums" can set up but people who are passing through are tolerated to a point. Now, I don't know if they are bums playing hobo for the day or if they are "real hobos" and I don't give the fucks to make the distinction. It's pointless. Everyone got the gist of it except you.
You ARE the sailor. I knew it. Pedantic was his favorite word. He used it all of the time. And the part about cutting and pasting was also one of his lame attempts at ridicule. Cutting and pasting saves me from having to type something that is already written. I guess you got so beat up by everyone, all of the time, that you just couldn't take it any more and ran away. So what name are you using now Popeye?
Also, he does not recognize wikipedia as a valid source. He would've attacked you for using wiki first and foremost.
He got his account deleted and since then has had at least 10-15 new accounts that I have spotted. He's simple to find. The clues lie more in his spelling and grammar among a couple others. I could give you a list of his usernames but you fancy yourself such a good detective so go ahead and find him yourself. I assure you I am not him, guess again. If you guess my username correctly I will say so and prove it.
Is it normal: Snobby hobos?

Erudite. Erudite was his favorite word.
