shystery

When a mysterious source causes a smell of shit to the 12th power.

I spent most of the bus ride back to MSB smelling sleeping passengers in attempt to solve the shystery.

Shyster

A slime-ball creature lower than dirt. A person to intimidate you and bill you for their lies and deception. Someone who is more interested in their place in the professional pecking order than an advocate for clients. A high priced whore who is conjugal with either side of a dispute who then lends his or her support to the highest bidder.

I went to a mediation. The plaintiff made up lies. My lawyer said they might make you "look bad" you better pay them(the plaintiff) or face more fees. My lawyer was a shyster.

shyster

The proper name for an attorney or a lawyer. A money-grubbing scoundrel who tries to save subhuman scum from execution, or who sues honest people who are trying to do their jobs.

It's very hard to win a lawsuit against you when you're against a big corporation with plenty of shysters.

Oxfam shyster

An Oxfam shyster is someone who tries to get a further discount in a charity shop (which may or may not be a branch of Oxfam) or who attempts to use the shop as a rubbish bin. Typical tactics include yelling, "I want to donate these, thank you!", leaving a large bag of (say) books at the counter and scooting out the door. Closer examination reveals a single layer of halfway good books (or just covers) overlying a mass of unsaleable and often physically unreadable mulch. The shop is left to discard the mulch because the Oxfam shyster couldn't bother their pretty little fat white arse to take the stuff to the dump themselves. Unlike the private citizen, the shop, being a charity, is (at least under Irish/EU law, dunno about America) obliged to pay a heavy charge on recycling, but who cares? As long as the Oxfam shyster gets their narcissistic business over and done with, that's fine with them, they're all right, Jack, and that's all that matters.

Another tactic is demanding a further discount off already rock-bottom prices because they need the money for something else. Food for the kids, petrol to get home, tins of dog or cat food, you name it. This is typically preceded by a pretense that they can't read price tags, and accompanied by an attempt to make it look like butter wouldn't melt in their mouths by saying they don't want the goods for themselves, but for a kid/relative/whatever who might need the info at a difficult time. Listen, love, if you need more money for petrol but can't afford the extra price of a cheeseburger, have you considered cycling?

Oxfam shysters can be of any age or either gender, but they tend to be elderly women more often than not, probably because this is the slice of the demographic best able to pull off the loveably-gaga routine, while at the same time being least likely to get a richly deserved kick in the toothless jawbone from the sort of well-meaning sucker who is likely to be running the shop. Beware the Oxfam shyster.

An Oxfam shyster is the lowest of the low.
