courtesy friend

Someone you may or may not have met who asks to be your friend or contact on a social networking site, such as Facebook. Out of social obligation, you are compelled to accept the invitation, but you end up hardly or never communicating with the person anyway.
Jim is just a courtesy friend. We went to high school together, and I vaguely remember him being a total loser. I didn't want to insult him, so I just accepted his LinkedIn invitation. I'll just silently unfriend him in a month or so, and he probably won't bother me again.

courtesy question

an inquiry under selfish pretense...where the poser of the question is only truly interested in reciprocation so that they may expound upon their experiences.

courtesy slice

A slice of pizza taken from a friend who has bought a whole one for him or herself, so that the buyer feels justified in their decision since the appearance of greed has been diminished.
Jake was reluctant to buy a full-size margherita, until I suggested I'd grab a courtesy slice or two.

courtesy junky

Someone who is very insistent upon being courteous, to the point where it is aggravating and at times inconvenient to the recipient, such as holding the door open for you even though your still several feet away, causing you to start a slow jog to the door to show good manners, though it made the process more difficult and awkward for you.
Friend 1: yea man ill be there in 15 minutes, I'm stuck at this stop sign behind this fuckin courtesy junky

Friend 2: why don't you just pass them in the left lane?

Friend 1: cmon bro, that's impolite

Friend 2: dude, your fuckin courtesy junky!
