cold war friendship 

A relationship between two people who can't stand each other but remain "friends" for social expediency.
This cold war friendship on facebook is just one of hundreds. My haters love to keep me close.

friend thinning

The act of deleting friends on Facebook whom you haven't talked to in a long time and/or don't plan on talking to again. Sometimes done to escape bad memories of a person or past.
I've gotta do some serious friend thinning... I've got 2000 friends on Facebook and I haven't talked to most of 'em since high school.

Friend Farming 

When an individual adds a large number of people as friends on Facebook in an attempt to appear more popular than they really are. This is despite the fact that they have never actually met any of the invited 'friends'.
Person 1: WTF? I just got a friend request on Facebook from some random I've never even met! Says she's someone's sister or something.
Person 2: Yeah, I know, I got one from her too, as did everyone from our school. Don't stress, she's not a stalker. It looks like she's just friend farming.

Person 1 clicks "Ignore" with a shudder

Friend-D-A 

Like an NDA ("Nondisclosure Agreement") that you agree to when one of your friends who works in a classified field (entertainment, government) let's you in on something not appropriate for public ears or eyes.
My friend told me what the monster looks like in the new J.J. Abrams movie because she works on the set, but I can't repeat it because I'm under a Friend-D-A.

Friend Crutch 

Someone you use in order to stop boredom because all of your other cool friends are at work, with family, etc.

A Friend Crutch is a person who is usually obnoxious or a tool on certain occasions, but won't make you flip out every minute.
Guy 1: You hanged out with Ryan yesterday?! Dude he is such a tool....

Guy 2: Don't worry he is only a friend crutch, everyone else was busy.

friend zone poke 

A Facebook poke that usually implies the friend zone. It is usually understood that guy and a girl who have poke wars with each other are only meant to be friends.
Person 1: "So you and Sally have been poking each other like crazy. Aren't y'all going to be dating soon?"

Person 2: "No, can't you see we have been giving each other the friend zone poke?"
