Circle of Friends

The terribly near-incestuous habit or tendency of a tight-knit group of mixed gender friends to date and sleep with one another at various turns in different permutations over a given span of time, often from high school and well into their early adulthood years. Extra messed up if there are siblings in this circle.

This is most prevalent with individuals who are unwilling or unable to make expansions to their social circles due to geographic constraints or cultural isolation (e.g. Orange Country, California) or psychological hesitance to escape the known and the familiar.

Only known remedy to this provincialism is to transplant oneself to New York, London or any other major metropolitan meat market.

Howard and Dave are both secretly cheating on their current girl friends with Christie's slightly older sister, Clare, who has just recently entered this Circle of Friends

Friend Zone

A term used to vilify a woman for excercising her right to say no. One day the male gender just decided that if you're friends with a woman or nice to her that she's obligated to date you and if she doesn't she's a horrible person. Women are put in the friend zone too, but society vastly ignores this fact. It's usually guys who go after extremely attractive women, and when they're rejected they think of this woman as shallow even though he himself is shallow for only pursuing women he sees as beautiful or pretty.
Bob: Wahhh! Suzy put me in the Friend Zone!

Joey: Forget her! All women are evil!

Suzy: Excuse me? Not only did I loose one of my closest friends because it turns out they were only pretending to be my friend in hopes of getting in my pants, but somehow this all makes me the villain here?

Sticky Friends

an addicting game played at a bar. Players earn points by "tagging" random people. Once tagged, they become a Sticky Friend and the tagger receives 1 point. Friends cannot be retagged by the same player. Tagging is accomplished by applying then removing any type of sticky device: tape, gum, etc. Typically, the losing team or player will buy shots for the winner(s) once the game has been concluded. Except when playing "shooters" - see below. The game is finished when the bar tab has been paid and/or last call.

Variations:

Poacher - allowing a friend to be tagged more than once by separate players.

Passenger - allowing a timid player to earn points by simply tagging a friend and not removing the tag. Great for players with boobs.
Shooters - each point is worth one shot at the bar. In heads up play, the tagger chooses the shot and the other player buys. In multi-player formats, other shot-buying methods can be used.

Can be played in teams, in scramble format, alternating shot or any other variation you can think of.
Dude, Jenny just left a passenger on that old cougar. Look at the HUGE tag! She's kickin' my ass at Sticky Friends! I didn't bring enough dough to buy her whole team a shot. Can you cover me?
