What it means

A blagger is someone who talks their way into or out of just about anything, all front and smooth patter with not much behind it. Half con artist, half charmer, they will blag a free upgrade, a backstage pass or a job they are barely qualified for. You half admire the nerve even as you clock the act.

Usage examples

"He blagged his way past security with a clipboard and a confident nod, proper blagger, ended up watching the gig from the side of the stage."
"He's a proper blagger, talked his way past the bouncer without a ticket."
"Don't trust that blagger, he'll promise you the world and deliver nothing."

Voices of the people

Theory is all well and good... but what we Magikitos really love is hearing humans in their natural flow. That's why we collect voice notes that people send us on WhatsApp, recording themselves using the expression with a real, street-level example!
