bootleg friend 

(n) A person who you may tell to their face they are your friend or a person who you don't actually like/trust for whatever character flaw. They may be in your friend circle but on a one-on-one basis they are not a friend to you. However you keep them around because for whatever reason it may be, they help you in some way.
Jim: Why do you chill with Eric? I hear he snitched on Kenny. Plus he's kind of a dick to your sister.

Greg: Because he can get me alcohol. He's pretty stupid so he doesn't know I hang with him just to get me drinks. He's just a bootleg friend.

bandaid friend 

A short-term friend who helps others feel emotionally better. When they've done all they could (usually with success), they exit the other friends life. This short-term friend is kind, helpful, a good listener, and can make any sad friend feel better. This "bandaid friend" can be mysterious, and may be reluctant to let other friends come close confidants. They're very approachable on the outside, but an introvert on the inside. These bandaid friends mean the best, and have a heavy heart for people, whether it's for the underdog, or just a sad person who needs to talk; meaning they're great with secrets.
I'm your bandaid friend, it's what I do.

nigerian friend 

another phrase to take place of the already offensive word nigga but almost sounding more offensive than the actual slur if used in a patronizing manner.
Hello my Nigerian friend!
Hello MY Nigerian.
