If you go to the wiki list and read some of the back stories… Begging. A lot of them just relied on handouts to eat. Not too different from regular homelessness.

Free housing. How can people afford to live somewhere else in this economy is the better question.

It’s the food cost I wonder about. I assume all other needs are relatively accessible at an airport for free.

How do they afford to drink at an airport if they’ve had difficulty finding work? Also, damn, can’t smoke at airports anymore.

Actually you can, even in the US, although it’s limited to major international airports. The terminal smoking area is like a giant room with industrial ventilation and double “air lock” type doors

I find the term “terminal smoking” very dark

Vegas has a smoking lounge with slots still and LAX has a balcony hidden behind some restaurants in one of the terminals.

Last time I was ATL, it had dedicated smoking rooms, looked like a fucking smog aquarium.

Now this makes me wonder… is there a list on Wikipedia that lists every weird list there?

List of lists of lists: This article itself is a list of lists, so it contains itself (see recursion)

A cow with antlers atop a power line pole. Wikipedia contains other images and articles that are similarly shocking or udderly amoosing.

Amazing.
