Jul 26 Word of the Day
Noun: a friend who is usually only called upon by a friend when a more primary/prominent friend is unavailable.

Taken from the term “second string” in an athletic competition situation. In football, if the star quarterback gets injured during a play, the second string is called off the bench to replace him/her. A “Second String Friend” is essentially benched until needed, if ever.

Synonyms: Plan B, Second Choice, Secondary Friend, Benched Until Needed
I got a call from X the other night. She had an extra ticket to a concert she bought for a friend, but they couldn’t make it so she called me to ask if I wanted to go because I am her Second String Friend.

A word usually shouted in the street by any males under 30 in the UK when completely drunk from the sesh, or more commonly at a festival/campsite. When complicated vocabulary is difficult to get out, drunk squads will usually acknowledge each other with an extremely loud Alan. This is usually followed up by an Alan response from the other squad, however sometimes the response is Steve.
Four guys are walking down a back street on their way back home from the club.
Guy 1 spots another similarly drunk group of friends around 200m down the road.
Guy 1: "ALAN! AAALLLLLAAAAANNNNNNN!"

A member of the other group will then turn around and shout back.
"STEEEEEEEEEEEEVEEEEEE!"
