cheapskate

someone so cheap, he cooks his meals using the work kitchen at the golden eagle refinery so he doesn't have to use electricity at home.
me: greg is so damn cheap!
you: what do you mean?

me: when there arent extra helpings to take home to eat, he stays after his shift is over and cooks his dinner here at work so he doesn't have to use his own electricity

you: doesn't he work more overtime than anyone?

me: yeah, he does ship tie-ups before his regular shift all tihe time and makes a lot but is one big CHEAPSKATE. he's also a lonely jerk who hasn't had a girlfriend in 15 years and is effectively a virgin, due to the lack of play he gets.

cheapskate

A individual obviously rich enough to buy nice shit but selfish enough to buy only bad quality crap. Usually feel proud of themselves for being closely related to douche bags.

Other version: can be said of an individual living a cheap life, feeling proud about it by saying they embrace a gypsy lifestyle while actually swimming in their parents money. To be shot on sight.
That fucking customer tonight was not only the worst douche-bag God Himself ever made me encounter, he was also a freaking cheapskate!

witchcraft that's too cheap to meter

(From the nuclear power industry's false promise about electricity being so cheap as not being able to charge for it)

1. In a fantasy or western-european-Pagan setting, sorcerous things that use so little mana as to be insignificant and not get you persecuted if you use them. Dancing naked in the forest when no one's looking and no camera is rolling is witchcraft that's too cheap to meter.

2. In a broader sense, a deed in a gray area (of society) that's so small as to not even be noticed.
1. When Gandalf blew a ship made of smoke through a smoke ring it was a form of witchcraft that's too cheap to meter.
1. At 10:45 AM I took off all my clothes and went into the woods and did a thankful little jig when it didn't snow. I'm Christian, but it was witchcraft that's too cheap to meter.

2. Gina:"Are you downloading MP3 files again?"
Sean:"Yeah, don't worry, it's witchcraft that's too cheap to meter. You won't get caught."
2. In 1996 I took some toilet paper and stuffed it into the bathroom exhaust fan at my grandmother's house, she didn't mind because it was similar to witchcraft that was too cheap to meter.
