This can be used in a couple of different ways, but typically refers to someone who is always hungry or extremely greedy and is always eating. The expression originated with the Royal Navy where the slang name for food is scran. It can also be used to refer to a person who is dirty, untidy, unkempt or of unprepossessing appearance, this too originated with the Royal Navy, perhaps because people who were always eating changed shape so that their uniforms did not fit or were so intent on food that they neglected their appearance.

Get the Civilisation mug.The sort of mental attitude exhibited by the majority of teenagers worldwide; arrogance, inexperience, and self-absorption coupled with lack of insight, narrow mindedness and a total inability to accept that they could ever be wrong. It is just this sort of chip on the shoulder attitude that causes them to clog up Urban Dictionary with ridiculously silly definitions that stand no hope of ever being accepted, to compete with each other to produce the most sickeningly disgusting sexual perversion, to attempt to boost their, already over-inflated, egos with self-aggrandising descriptions of themselves or to denigrate people they don’t like with descriptions that they don’t have the balls to put their names to, because if they did they would be sued for libel. It’s the sort of mental attitude that, when their submission is rejected, throws all of its toys out of the pram and rejects everyone else’s definitions out of infantile spite.
It is to be hoped that eventually they will grow up and maybe grow a pair although it must be said that many of them never do, retaining even into old age an immature sense of entitlement.

Spite Monkey Mentality is unfortunately prevalent amongst the teens, pre-teens and post teens who have invaded Urban Dictionary.

Get the Spite Monkey Mentality mug.In Cornwall in the South West of England, this is a dialect name for a woodlouse, so although not strictly slang it still owes its origins to dialect and common usage as slang words do. The difference between dialect and slang is that dialect is not constant, for example just across the Tamar in the county of Devon a woodlouse is ‘chickypig’ while in Somerset it’s ‘gramfy-coocher’ and in Gloucestershire ‘johnny-grump’.

Get the Lie Doggo mug.A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.
