Now, A mall rat is someone who has no life rather than hanging out at the mall all the time, whiling their time away with doing absolutely useless things or spending their money on crap they don't need. They tend to be preteen-to teenage typically, though they can be older or younger. The male mall rats are usually gawky, grungy, slummy or awkward. Either that or they are of the other end of the spectrum- total hipster wannabe poseurs who are mollycoddled and never got dirty in life, and spend daddy's allowance on the latest shitty Indie group album. The female mall rats are slutty to the max, but it's kind of turn-offish for many males since these females are usually way too young for the level of sexualization they play themselves off as. They are usually bratty and spoiled and incredibly stupid, and often say such phrases as "like, omigawd! " Here's a pic of some mall rats:
Note: Mall Rats is also an awesome movie, by Kevin Smith, go see it if you haven't already..
