The Scavenger 

"The Scavenger" is a term which refers to someone hailing from Southwestern NY State who "preys" on females whom just got out of a serious relationship with The Scavenger's close and best friends. The Scavenger has issues with getting women, so scraping up his friends "messes" is all The Scavenger can do with absolutely no guilt, shame, morals or heart. "Bro-Code" is NOT something that is in the mind of this person and is commonly and consistently "placing the pussy on the pedestal." The Scavenger's favorite song is "My Best Friend's Girlfriend" by The Cars.

The Scavenger can usually be found at the following functions/places: "Family vacations, weddings, local bars, Bemus Point, The Second Street Crawl and any function in which these females are privy to.

The Scavenger also uses social networking sites such as MySpace and Facebook to obsess, stalk and gain personal access to the female's personal life. Another common point of The Scavenger is to lay the groundwork on the female months and even years in advance while that female is currently in a relationship with the close, or even best friend.

The Scavenger habitually "line-steps" by degrading, belittling, trash-talking and bashing the close friend whom he has moved in on. This happens on the above mentioned social networking sites, behind the friend's back to mutual friends and definitely to the female who is being targeted by The Scavenger. The Scavenger will blast the friends to the female to boost her self confidence and move in for sexual gain. A comparable situation can be that of a Lion targeting a wounded Antelope on the Serengeti.

The friend or friends in question sometimes find out about these situations months and years after they actually happen. This also places the mutual friends in uncomfortable situations and secrecy because of the immoral and WRONG acts that are being displayed by The Scavenger.

The Scavenger is know in different locales under the following aliases: The Jamestown Jackel, Buffalo Bandit, Boston Backstabber, Chicago Con-Artist and Vegas Vulture. The Scavenger will stop at no end to gain access to his target. A common saying when rarely confronted on the situation by The Scavenger is "It Is What It Is!"

Specific situations in which The Scavenger has struck have been given specific names.....similar to names given to battles in a war: These include, but are not limited to: "Hijak on The Hill", "Miley's Mull-Over", "The Cherry Lounge Cock-Block", "Shawbucks Slide-In", and the "Carnival Court Crawl-In."

No person is safe around the The Scavenger and should be very cautious when introducing a significant other into a social circle in which The Scavenger belongs!
Man.....I'm a mess......my woman just broke up with me and at the worst possible time--The Scavenger is in town for a visit next week and we know he will be on the prowl.
