Answer :
Answer: the term “scrooge” is a literary allusion to Ebenezer Scrooge, from “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens, who was known for being cruelly cheap and putting money above morale. When someone refers to a person as a scrooge they are referring to a person being cheap.
if someone says you’re in fact, a scrooge, they are implying that you are negative, kind of like a party pooper, quite bitter and crabby.
