Abused Puppy Syndrome

A condition where a person, who is typically picked on and made fun of, develops a deep crush on the first person who is nice to them. Named after the tendency for beaten dogs to follow around people who feed them. APS is characterized by:

-The writing of long love letters and notes, signing them as "Secret Admirer"
-The following of the nice person around the halls of your school, office building, or any other place where people assemble
-Excessive staring
-Writing the nice person's name over and over and over again
-Efficaciousness
-Awkward smiling
Nice Person: I defended that nerdy girl in front of a couple football guys and now she keeps staring at the back of my head in Math!

Nice Person's friend: I told you not to get involved, now you've got a full-blown case of Abused Puppy Syndrome on your hands.

travelcard abuse

When you use your annual season ticket travelcard to make pointless and unnecessary journeys just because you can.

The early stages of travelcard abuse can typically be identified by young professionals trying to justify the annual expense of their travel card by stating something similar to "well I have paid for it so I may as well use it".

This eventually progresses into downright travelcard abuse.

Though its origin is when referring to the London Underground it has been known to apply to other annual tickets purchased for other methods of transportation.
I haven't got a lot planned for tomorrow I'll probably just engage in some travelcard abuse.

Let's abuse the travel card and meet up at here *points to random station on map* because I think it has a funny station name.

Why did I go all the way to South London just to go to Mc.Donalds when there's around 46 of them much closer? Because I can! That's travelcard abuse at its best baby!
