A flourishing new subculture readily observable in Bristol and rapidly throughout the United Kingdom. Characterised instantly by flat-peaked caps worn at a ludacrisly jaunty angle to comic effect, boatman shoes (worn without socks) and slim fitting hooded sportswear. Musically interested in "filthy" dubstep and anything else with an incomprehensible (sick) bassline. They are noted to frequent the dubstep night Wobble held at Thekla with almost religious dedication, regularly attending en mass. It is this facet of the subculture from which the term Wobreg derives.
Thekla Staff 1: Oh look there's a flat-peaked cap left behind down by the bar...

Thekla Staff 2: Oh so there is, it must belong to one of the Wobregs, i'll take it upstairs for them to collect next Tuesday.

Somebody who used to like screamo, got into the Dubstep scene in 2010 and now will only listen to a tune if it has been made using an Roland tr-808. A wobreg's fashion sense varies rapidly but they can usually be identified by a flat-peaked baseball cap worn at at least 45 degrees to their head, a zip-up hoodie with the strings tied in a bow and sometimes a heavy-metal band t-shirt.

The word was originally used as an abbreviation to describe regulars to the Bristol Dubstep night, Wobble at Thekla.
Man - Thekla tonight?

Man 2 - Nah, too many Wobregs.

flophouse 

Any house/apartment/frat house/trailer/etc. which is used for individuals to crash (sleep, chill, hang out, lurk, etc.) for a period of time. In order to "crash", one must not actually live there (e.g. have their name on the lease, own said flophouse, etc.). Flophouses are typically used by college students, drug addicts, transients, vagrants, or other unsavory characters.

A flophouse may also be the home owned by the parents of a college student, who after being away at college, wishes to live as if he/she is still at college (e.g. staying out all night, returning just to crash at mom and dad's house, then leaving again), rather than conforming to the pre-college rules.
Example #1
Dude: (Talking to someone passed out face first on the floor of his college apartment) Hey man, who the hell are you? What do you think this is, a flophouse??

Bro: Sorry dude, I must have passed out for a minute.

Example #2
Mom: Where have you BEEN for the last three days? You come home just to sleep?? What do you think this is, a flophouse??!!

Son: What's your problem? I'm an adult now!
