Someone who is extremely selfish/tight/a fucktard/someone you want to kill. Does not like to share stuff with other people, o be nice to other people.

It originates from Charles Dickens "Scrooge" story. Scrooge was a man who hated christmas and everyone, and magically a ghost appears and at the end he learns that he should be nice, and then goes to an Xmas dinner and is nice to everyone....

Understand?
Jimmy: Hey, can I have a piece of bread please?
Scrooge type man: No you may not, just because I have an unlimited supply of bread, does not mwan you can have some.

Or...

Charlie: May I listen to your MP3 player with you?

Charlie: Haha...stupid emo... *pushes claire out window*

Person 2: no i haven’t but i keep seeing edits of people simping for Scrooge all over my TikTok for you page.

Person 2: yeah but originally he was described as “unapproachable” and the 2022 Netflix adaptation of him looks very approachable.
