Now that we’ve sent a huge box of insults and curses to my sister, let’s go impress that homeless guy who occasionally shows up to cause chaos in our lives! Hey, where’s your conniving friend, let’s start a business with him while we’re at it!

“Let’s also discuss our plans while standing right behind him.”
Snufkin, you tramp, you lol!
What did tramp mean back then?
It’s referring to his homelessness, but there’s not a good English word for what’s really being expressed. He likes to wander freely in nature.
e: Vagabond. Pretty uncommon word though, I think.
hobo: someone who travels and works
bum: someone who doesnt travel nor work
tramp: someone who travels but doesnt work
i think those were the distinctions i read somewhere. all assume the person doesnt have permanent home.
