a member of the subculture based around the art/music collectives drain gang and sadboys. “drain” has unique, dream-like, and ethereal visuals and sound loosely inspired by the early 2000’s, scene culture, and EDM/trance music. it promotes a spiritual and existential lifestyle and is, to many, a refreshingly stark contrast to mainstream trap. it has rapidly grown in popularity over the years and heavily inspires the current state of the underground movement on SoundCloud.
the term gained popularity as a meme on 4chan’s /mu/ and /fa/ boards, yet it somehow quickly gained traction among attention seeking egirls on discord, roblox, and instagram and has since become even more of a meme.
A person or thing that for some reason (e.g. for being annoying, a whinger, a loser, or boring, etc.) drains one's energy and general enjoyment of life.
"OMG, I wish Angus would shut up, he's such a drainer."
"Did you go to Stacy's party Saturday night?"
"Yeah, total drainer."
"DRAAAAAAAAAAAINER" (Slow chant to remove offending drainer from giving a speech on some kind of public pedestal)

Drainer
A drainer is a person who listens/is a big fan of the Swedish music group Drain Gang, wich consists of the members Bladee (CEO), Ecco2K and Thaiboy Digital (or Thaiboy Goon)
A drainer is also very often a alpha male and probably the coolest guy in school
You can also be a fake drain wich is someone who tries to be a drainer without being fully educated in drain, basically a poser

Someone who puts people down by continually offloading their problems into them. They can often masqueradeas a friend but their intentions are not friendly.
Dan:...and then he told me he didn't love me. You know, I really feel emotionally tethered to the guy, you know? He just means everything to me and it kills me that-
Nicole: -Shut up Dan, stop being a drainer.
