                Pejorative for a homeless person, - especially one that makes no attempt to work or better himself (contrasted with the more respected working homeless “hobos”). Probably comes from the expression “lazy bums.”
                Get a job you F’ing bum.

                To shamelessly ask for something (in the manner of a bum – see above).
                Dude can I bum a cigarette, five dollars, and a ride to the…

                A loser with nothing going for him (no job, no aspirations etc). Especially an unworthy husband or boyfriend.
                I can’t believe she’s with Jim. Always drinking, never workin, the guy is a bum.

                UK/Commonwealth:
                4. The more polite way of saying ass.
                Does my bum look big in this?

                To do in the bum.
                I bummed a tart.

                Afganistan
                6. Bum is a major city in Afganistan.
