[pct-l] How do you distinguish scuzzy "Hiker Trash" from a grubby "Homeless Bum"?

I prefer not to be associated with Unsupported and his Snicker bar fetish.  He give us Hiker Trash Bums a bad name.  Thank you.

''THAT''  is how you distinguish scuzzy ''Hiker Trash''  from a grubby   
''Homeless Bum''.....the grubby ''Homeless Bum'' will beg for a 
dime....the scuzzy ''Hiker Trash'' will beg for a Snicker bar and all 
''Hiker Trash'' knows Georgi has lots of Snicker bars and a heart of 
gold for ''Hiker Trash.'' 

The last time you ran into Switchback & me, at the KO, you gave us 
Snicker Bars...I think you mistook us for ''Hiker Trash.'' 
But, we forgave you Georgie....besides, I love Snicker bars.
