When a person decides they are 'done' with a conversation that has turned sour or aggressive, and resolves it by promptly vomiting noisily upon their verbal attacker. This action is then followed by a hasty retreat, preferably whilst flapping like a bird.
Louis couldn't stand all the horrible things people were saying about Ru Paul, and started vulturing on all and sundry, leaving a trail of bile and sweetcorn as he flapped off into the night.

Vulture as a verb can signify circling around something, as a vulture would do. For example, the sentence "Rudy vultured when asking the girl out" implies that Rudy hovered awkwardly around her for an extended period of time before making his move.
Rudy vultured while asking the girl out.
Vulturing around the girl, Rudy waited for the correct moment to strike.

Derogatory (although deserved) term for panhandlers after their method of sizing up who looks the most vulnerable to be hit up on for money, like the bird species which swoops around looking for what they think are weak and/or injured animals to consume.
I see some homeless people swooping all around me like vultures, time to make a abrupt turn away from them!
