Now you're not even trying
It started when the NCAA series didn't suck an was fun to play. Then after NCAA 12 it turned into a sports/Off topic kinda place.I don't even know what the purpose of this forum really is.
I only use it for the NCAA 14 online dynasty. I found the forum at operation sports. I'm actually curious how this place got started...is it just like a sports forum? Video game forum?
Do you have 5 minutes a day?I don't even know what the purpose of this forum really is.

Nutopia started as an NCAA forum but is now an OOTP forum, home to the best futuristic sim baseball league this side of Sagatarrius A*
I always laughed at the hobo date idea, but I met my girlfriend on a camping trip where we were on an island with the only running water source being a spigot a half mile away. I see the thinking behind the hobo date now....Christ, another millennial? You might as well just start taking my life advice now. Have a seat and let me tell you about hobo dates and why they are the most important measure of a prospective spouse...
I wouldn't have said no.
Dying here.LOOKS LIKE BEING AN ABUSIVE ASSHOLE IS THE TICKET FOR THESE GIRLS WITH DADDY ISSUES!
This is pretty apt

That was pretty much a gentrified hobo date we went on, lol. It followed almost the same script as far as adventure goes, but I have an actual job now so we didn't have to panhandle, con people, or rob anyone to pay for beers.
I'm not actually someone that has my life together, I just play one on TVI already moved him above @bruin228 in the millennial power rankings. He's no @adchester yet, but he's showing promise.
Travis didn't take me on a hobo date but a homeless man made Travis' wife cry while I pet his dog. That was an interesting twist to the night.
I don't know. You could have stopped this by donating your quiz night riches.
PART 3 THE SOLUTION
So not all of us are as insane as Kevin, so we need to adapt and tailor the HOBO DATE to our own specific lifestyles, and the possible adversity you might expect given those lifestyle choices. Basically you just want to consider the type of predicaments you regularly get yourself into and then design a date with some built in adversity so you can both see how the other reacts under a little stress, but in a situation that is planned enough to provide safe and easy outs if you aren't having fun with each other. You don't want to be in Nicaragua before you realize you don't want to be around this person anymore. Make this like a first or second date and encourage them to come up with something that will similarly test you against the possible pitfalls of their preferred lifestyle. For some of you a hobo date might be something completely different like "You watch desperate housewives on your ipad while I play video games with Utopians for 12 hours straight!" That's probably what my hobo date would be like now, lol.
So for me, I was a poor college dude who like to go out to old town and have a good time and just let the party/fun take me wherever without really any concrete plans. I didn't have a TV or vidya games at that time, so every night was more of an exercise in finding ways to entertain myself without getting arrested. Now this is pretty "normal" for a college kid, but you'd still be amazed at how many people just completely fold and give up when they find themselves 5 miles away from home at 2AM with no money and no cell phone. My adventures were hardly on the same level of intensity as Kevin's, it's not like I had to barter with Tarahumara Indians for food 22 days into a trek through Copper Canyon.... but still I dated a lot of girls who would just freak out and cry at even the idea of walking a mile home.
So my hobo date was as follows:
1. Start at the house with no money (no credit cards allowed either!)
2. Go to old town (3 miles away at the time)
3. Have dinner
4. Have drinks
5. Make it home (however far that may be)
(See @osick87 how close our date was? I mean we started with money and I didn't hump you in an alley, but otherwise it was pretty damn close)
So anyway, the built in adversity was being able to create a good time without starting with a plan, transportation, or money. A fair few girls bailed on me before I'd even finished explaining the premise, lol. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED, no time wasted figuring out we aren't going to be remotely compatible. Some dates went ok, but just weren't really that fun and we just didn't click. You can fake a connection in a coffee shop, but can you fake it while riding a bus at 2 AM?
Eventually I found a girl who thrived on hobo dates and handled all forms of minor adversity with dignity and aplomb. I married her and life is great. Even Kevin managed to find someone after nearly a decade of looking and is married now too! Who knew that there were still women who accept hitchhiking and train hopping as primary forms of transportation? (though he admittedly started to naturally tone down a bit to more reasonable levels before it happened).
So there you go! If you wanna find someone cool, I recommend rejecting traditional stuffy/boring/forced conversation bullshit of forced dates, e-dating, hookup culture, etc. Take a girl on a hobo date instead! UR WELCOME.
Sit beside me, my millennial son... Listen closely to wait I say, and if you do this, it'll help you some sunny day.
The catalyst event for the hobo date idea was when my roommate, we'll call him Kevin,
I forgot to mention it also helps if she's half ur age, because women mature faster mentally. So start college when you are 36, like I did.
