Gossip Vultures

People who arrive onto the scene of an incident (for example, a fight) that has recently occurred, but one they did not witness. They then start to ask the people who saw what happened questions ("What happened?" being the main one) until they get enough information to gossip to their friends about it.
"Wow, that fight was pretty brutal. Oh look, here come the Gossip Vultures!"

Phone vulture

A person who spends the entire day waiting for a phone call, usually darting their eyes to the phone every few seconds to see if it would start magically ringing. Like a vulture, whenever someone else would like to make a phonecall or receive one, the phone-vulture screams at them to "keep the freaking lines open", and on most occasions rears up to attack.

For cellphone-users, people usually look at the screen every two minutes to see the time, and check their inbox for any unread text-messages.
Fred: Did you see how Jenny was waiting around the phone like that? My grandmother is calling today and she won't let me use it.

Carol: Oh, yeah. She had a one night stand with Tom and he's supposed to call her. Of course he never will, but you know how much of a phone vulture she can be.

Vulture Table

The table or area in an office where people bring food or snacks for others to eat up or take home.
Example 1:
Office Mate 1: We have all these extra pizza slices and cake from the McGyver's birthday party, what should we do?

Office Mate 2: Just put them on the vulture table. One of those fat cows will eat them up or take them home.
