British slang for a person who takes the piss — that is, someone who mocks, teases, or tests the limits of what others will put up with. A piss-taker might be pushing your patience with outrageous demands, pulling someone's leg with an elaborate wind-up, or just relentlessly taking the mickey. The term ranges from affectionate to genuinely critical depending on tone and context. In the right company, being called a piss-taker is practically a compliment.
He charged three quid for a teabag — everyone agreed he was an absolute piss-taker but kept coming back anyway.
