Someone who wastes too much time on studying the personal histories of people they'll never meet to the point that it affects their existence.

A low-income person who trundels a wheelbarrow all around town on Christmas morning and collects the lumps of coal that Santa left in the stockings of all the bratty youngsters, so that he can take it back home and burn it in his stove for heat.
As we all know, Santa is extremely careful about determining who's actually been naughty or nice ("He's makin' a list, and checkin' it twice"), and so quite a significant percentage of the children in any given area will probably receive high-grade anthracite as their Christmas present. A naughty-gift scavenger, therefore, should have little trouble filling up his 'barrow come Christmas Day, since most parents wouldn't want "that dirty black stuff" in their houses, anyway, and thus they would probably be all too happy to be rid of it; about the only families who would likely tell him no would be fellow-indigent folks who themselves would want to use said sooty lumps in their own furnaces.

a person who, by default, has no brain. They can only communicate by scavenging whatever neurons they can find, linking them together with chicken wire and gum, and then saying something. Because of how little neurons the person will usually scavenge, they always say the dumbest, most retarded shit on the planet.
dude: "earth is flat!!!:
scientist: "you're actually stupid"
dude: "whenever I go to my lake house, I don't see the river move. so the earth isn't spinning!:
scientist: "what a neuron scavenger"
dude: *silent because couldn't find any neurons to say anything*

Annoyed Person 3: She's such a pop scavenger

A person who doesn't follow any musical bands or groups in particular, and instead comes across random songs that they like, adds them to their playlist or whatever other music saving thingy, and goes about their day. It doesn't matter who made the song or the background of the piece; the song scavenger simply enjoys the song and adds it into their hodge-podge of music.
A song scavenger will often not have taste in any particular genre, they just enjoy the songs that they find. Their playlist could have a Van Halen song in one slot, a rap number from last year in the next, and then a Thomas the Tank Engine song after it.

Person 1: I sometimes comb through YouTube to find some new music.
Person 2: Do you listen to any bands or genres in particular?
Person 1: No, I just find random songs I enjoy and add them to my playlist.
Person 2: Ah, so you're a song scavenger.
