hobo = Home Owner Bought Out
it is the acronym for people from 'the Great Depression' who lost their homes when the banks called their loans due (as per the terms of the loan).
All legal, but totally sucks.
Has come to mean many things, mainly derogatory.
Bank: "Mr. Smith, your loan has come due and we are not able to extend you any more credit."
Mr. Smith: "What can I do? The plant closed, my kids are sick and my wife ran off with the ex-plant manager."
Bank: "That's not our problem. Leave or the Sherif will remove you."
Mr. Smith: "Well kids, it's off to the poor house for you, Daddy's a hobo now."
Kids: Boo, hoo. . . .

A hobo is someone without a house or a job. They will work, though. You most commonly hear of hobos living in boxes, but some hobos live in homeless shelters. in the old days, you hear of hobos hiding on trains. that doesn't happen very often anymore. hobos often stand outside with signs that say "need food" or "homeless anything will help".
I have $5 and i can either spend it on a tasty sandwich, or give it to that hobo. hm, i think i'll give it to that hobo.

an old school term used to romanticize folks who have been chewed up and vomitted out by a dysfunctional economic, and political system and are then ignored, lionized, criminalized, or are further abused.
people who blithely accuses hoboes aka
homeless of being drug (including boos)
addicts are either ignorant, blind, or
both

When you do something "Homeless" you gotta say "No Hobo" after doing it.
Hey Tommy, can i have half of your sandwich? No hobo of course.
Hey can you get me that orange by your foot? No hobo

When you are doing something that would be often perceived as characteristic of a homeless person, interject the phrase "no hobo" to make it cool. Similar to "no homo."
Person 1: Can I have a quarter?
Person 2: Get a job bum
Person 1: No Hobo
Person 2: Aight bro
