riff-raff

generally people that don't carry a Centurion card or even worse people that have one but don't really deserve it.

Dude, he is trying to pay for his bottle of Cristal with his lowly Platinum card, how pathetic!

riff-raff

In friend groups, riff-raffs are the group of people who believe they are friends with some of the leaders of the group but in reality are only barely tolerated. There are two levels of Riff-Raffers, defined as R1 and R2, R2 being the more unsavory of the two levels.

What is all of this riff-raff doing at our party?

riff-raff

Undergound music movement from Middlesbrough in the UK. Responsible for giving us filthy dirty proggy beats and generally getting people into the kind of state a Doctor would loose sleep over. Also created the dance craze and 'new' word, Scrinse. Without this kind of music, clubbing in Middlesbrough would be at village level. They are now spreading their sound all over the world.

'Ere mate you fancy a scrinse down riff-raff tonight?', 'yeah nice one, we'll party til Monday and have a parmo afterwards'

Riff-Raff

Un-savory people in our society. People you do not want to be associated with.

Ex. If this was America it would be a gated community in order to keep all the riff-raff out.

Ex. Look at all the riff-raff over there.

Riff Raff

A male or female who has no motivation whatsoever. They do not work, mooch off of people and are totally content in doing so. They would much rather just hang out all day long, and are content with how things are and don't ever plan on making things better, even if it can help them in relationships.

When deciding whether or not to get a job,Jake,the riff raff decided he would much rather just hang out and do nothing for the day.

riff raff

A negative term for people that lack social grace, education or that have minority status.

The new housing that's going up is driving out the riff raff.

I enjoy the Midwest because of it's low amount of riff raff.
