    PSA: Momma Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Hobos

    And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how Scruffage is spread. This growing trend among American youth is not some innocent, victimless high. It’s a highly-contagious parasitic infection that changes human physiology at the most basic facial hair level, transforming young men and women into cantankerous, chain-smoking, rail-riding hobos forever addicted to the simple freedom of the open rail, harmonica solos, and baked beans cooked in a can.
