A person who accepts that they are without a permanent lodging and chooses to travel from place to place with the purpose of not becoming attached to anyone or anywhere thus avoiding commitment and responsibility. Age gender and wealth are not an influence to a genuine 'drifter'.
The itinerary for the drifter is north some days with an open ended no final destination. There are many drifters posting their information on Facebook. The true purest drifters don't need handouts our couches to surf at friends places. They make they way with useful skills.

Get the drifting on a memory mug.A person who is using an electronic device (i.e. texting, facebook or any other social media) while walking and not paying attention to their surroundings. They typically drift across the side walk and cutoff or collide with other people on the side walk. They are clueless and seem to be on another planet inside their phones. 99% of the time their heads are down while walking, they only lift their heads to take a sip from the coffee they are usually carrying.

Get the drifter (Noun) mug.A phenomenon generated by, but not limiting to, the bowling of Thomas Cookson. North Atlantic Drift (or NAD as an abbreviated term) is the action to which a cricket ball 'drifts' towards a batsmen whilst in the air, lulling them into playing the ball to the leg side. However, contrary to physics and cricketing norms, when the ball pitches it turns viciously to the off side, leaving the batsmen dumbfounded, perplexed and more often that not on his/her way back to the pavilion.

Get the North Atlantic Drift mug.A social drifter is generally someone who travels between different social groups from year to year, never growing attatched to one person or group of people. Every person has their own reason for being a social drifter; some do it because they like to avoid problems, others because they have attatchment issues.
Social drifters never seem to have the same friends for more than a year, nor do they stay within a stereotype for very long either. These people are often confused for a bottom feeder or social climber, but for the most part are nothing close to those. They simply drift in and out of people's lives so that for at least a while they can find friends, however temporary they might be.
