Attention Purchase 

When a guy so desperate for female attention he will use his dad's credit card to donate $100s to a random streamer, just to see his name on the screen or a "heart" on Youtube. Often found on Twitch cam streams and anything involving pokimane.
Joe: "Man I sent this girl on Twitch $500 and she said thanks!"
Jim: "Dude, talking to girls irl is free! Stop with the attention purchase!"

attention geekers

Me 1) 'waaaahay, I've just turned my Star Wars light sabre into a smart-sabre so I can pay for my bus ticket Jedi-like. Woosh'

Me1.1) 'wow, that's so cool...must get me one, mopho'

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
