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.

Every year I see that kid with a different group of friends. He must be a social drifter, always changing his surroundings.

Get the Social Drifter mug.The degree to which an avid viewer of a TV show, cartoon, or internet series notices a slight change in style or content over an extended period of time is called "series drift". Often times, series drift is responsible for the waning of the popularity of such a program. Occasionally, series drift can have a positive affect in attracting a larger audience. In cases when series drift has a strong negative affect, the producers of the program in question may resort to jumping the shark.

Get the Drifter mug.On a multi-lane road (usually a highway or mainstreet), lane drifting is when a car suddenly begins 'drifting' over the lanes, usually because the driver isn't paying attention, or cannot see the lanes because they aren't painted well enough.
Usually they'll hover between two lanes, going the speed limit, and holding up traffic in both lanes.

I was stuck going 65 because the guy infront of me was lane drifting between the left lane and center lane, and was apparently oblivious to the chorus of car horns being layed upon him.

Get the Sticky Drifter mug.When a TV channel starts airing programs that are different from what the name of the channel suggests or programming the channel has shown in the past. Channels that exhibit channel drifting tend to shift away from past programming, often acting like it never even existed.

Channel drifting is often very unpopular with a network's longtime viewers. Of all the people who watched Cartoon Network 10-15 years ago, how many of those people do you think still watch it?
