Are I the only one here who got your semi-jocular bon mote? “tramps like us”, it’s obvious you were referring to yourself!

Ugh, are you joking with me? I was not calling the daughter a tramp. I was making a reference to Bruce Springsteen's most famous song, Born to Run. He repeats several times in the song, "tramps like us, baby we were born to run."

And try looking the definition. The first noun definition is the vagrant/hobo one, not, "woman of loose morals." Springsteen was talking about the former.
