Mobile Beggar

Mobile Beggar: A modern-day freeloader who uses technology and can appear anywhere—whether at work, outside your home, or through persistent messages. Much like a modern-day vampire, they don’t rob you directly but can drain your emotional and financial resources. They often seek not just money, but also companionship, reflecting deeper struggles and fears. While they may sometimes be parasitic, they also carry a sense of loyalty and a need for empathy. It can happen to anyone, so never judge, because the universe might teach you a lesson and put you in their shoes overnight. It’s always best to help them if you can, but set boundaries—never let them stay at your house to make it clear that it’s your personal space. In the end, you can temporarily help them, but the only person who can truly help is themselves.

Frank: Where’s the catch, bruv, LOL?

Lee: See that geezer Tony, bruv? He sees my wallet, bruv, big mistake, LOL. I’m like, “Is he gonna rob me, bruv?

Frank: What happened, bruv, LOL?

Lee: He got me for a tenner, bruv.

Frank: LOL, what can you do? Don’t you just hate it when you get rinsed by these mobile beggars bruv?

Lee: Only a tenner, bruv. I’d do it to him if the tables turned, bruv, LOL.

Frank: Likewise, LOL bruv.
