    A degenerate that has absolutely no sense of social responsibility and just exist to antagonise. I can spot them a mile away.

    The term 'Scumbag' was originally conceived to describe a used condom.

    Judging by the rate they breed I don't think they know what a condom is, let alone how to use one.

    For arguments sake, maybe there are people who would think that about you?

    Listen, I know scum when I see it. They wear sports shoes, they have tight haircuts, at any or one point in their lives someone in their family claimed welfare, they or their fathers have commited a crime against the law. They listen to loud music. They are not members of the gaa nor do they attend mass regularly. They usually come from urban areas. The smoke, they drink offlicence alcohol and have at one point in their lives, spat in public. They are the scum of the filth and nobody, ever deserves a second chance.

    So it's someone with poor morals.

    I think I may be a scumbag so (if using the catholic code of morals anyway)... Damn it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,370 ✭✭✭Knasher


    Somebody who is a borderline sociopath. I'd go as far to say that the only difference between the two is that one is getting medical help and the other isn't.

    They just get chased down the road and attacked by scumbags.

    Probably wouldn't be what people would picture when they hear the word but I would say yes. When I was a kid I hung around the Central Bank with all the great unwashed and there were a few lads who, despite their alternative appearances, were nothing but scumbags who liked to randomly pick fights on people smaller than them.

    Once saw a guy try pour a bottle of piss (yes someone was actually blasted with piss as much as it pains me to say it here) and when he reacted and knocked the bottle away he got some of the pricks own piss on the pricks shoe, who then kicked him full force in the face. That's a scumbag imo, despite lack the lack of the athletic chic look.
