hang around
to waste time, to loiter.
My friends and I hang around at the corner bar.
hang around
A "hang around" is the first of various levels of membership in the Hells Angels biker gang.
A hang around is described as friendly to the organization but is not an actual member yet. They typically go to parties, buy the t-shirts and try to make contacts within the organization to help boost their membership level. Hang arounds also ride with the group whenever there is a ride but otherwise they don't get involved in the organization; they never hold offices within the group and they typically do not participate in extreme group activities such as retaliation or gun trafficking.

Matt's become a hang around after he met a small Hells Angels group at the bar last month.
hang-around
A hang-around is like a hang over except that there is no vomiting and it lasts a lot longer. Symptoms include light-headedness,headache, weak muscles, sensitivity to light, mumbling, and usually an unexplainable pain. The only cure for a hangaround is a lot of water.
Every time I go to work with a hang-around my boss looks at me like I've killed somebody.
Hanging around like a bad smell
Something that lingers, that is aggravating without being directly identifiable

“all i hang around are legends”
a statement that is of no value.
