friend rule

The rule that you shouldn't get romantically involved with someone a close friend has been romantically involved with, at least without asking first. The reason being that whatever issues exist(ed) in the romantic relationship tend to become issues for the friendship as well.

Fisherman's Friend

Fisherman's Friend were originally developed by a young pharmacist named James Lofthouse in 1865 to relieve various respiratory problems suffered by fishermen working in the extreme conditions of the Icelandic deep-sea fishing grounds. Originally developed as an extremely strong liquid remedy containing menthol and eucalyptus oil, Lofthouse made this liquid into small lozenges which were easier to transport and to administer. According to the manufacturer, the fishermen soon began to refer to the lozenges as their "friends", hence the name. The lozenges exist in their current form relatively unchanged since their creation. The lozenges still come in their famous paper packets, although these are now foil-lined and sometimes packaged inside a cardboard carton.

as a friend

Here's the scoop, boys and girls. Women pidgeonhole men into two categories, Friend and Jerk. Men who are chivalrous, polite, sophisticated, etc. are instantly relegated to "Friend" status. Men who treat women like shit are "Jerks."

Women love Friends but consider them unfuckable because they are not masculine enough. Women hate Jerks because they are asswipes but fuck them anyway. Thus, every woman in the world fucks Jerks and then complains to her Friend about how badly the Jerk treats her.
Just more proof that women are totally irrational.

Boy Friend Voice

The voice a male makes when he is with or speaking with his girl friend. The voice usually goes from a regular male voice with all swag to a soft pansy voice usually accompanied with flirting.
We were all swaggin out at the crib when Chris got a phone call from Colleen and turned on his boy friend voice. We proceeded to clown on the dude until he hung up.

Friend-once-removed

A friend of a friend; one that perhaps you've never met or you aren't well acquainted enough with to call them a proper friend, but your friend is close with.

The 'once' part can be changed depending upon how close this friend is; Your friend's friend's friend's friend would be your friend-thrice-removed.
I was talking with Jen the other day. Turns out my friend-once-removed Darren is in a band that's playing at the club on Friday. Wanna come see them with us?
