Tendernob 

San Francisco, California term for the area on the border between the economically depressed neighborhood of the Tenderloin and the upscale Nob Hill district. Provides striking juxtapositions of wealth and poverty. Often used with sexually suggestive implications.

I was at Geary and Leavenworth in the Tendernob when I saw some desperate girl climb into a stranger's Grand Cherokee.

Tendernob Tumbleweed

A consolidated ball of a pigeon's down feathers, which gently rolls throughout the streets and sidewalks.

An urban equivalent (specifically the San Francisco neighborhood bordering Nob Hill & the Tenderloin, highly populated by pigeons) to the North American tumbleweed (Salsola pestifera) found in rural desert environments.

1. Tendernob tumbleweeds were swirling around my feet, carried by strong ocean driven breeze as the sun set on yet another bustling day in a towering city.

2. "Heads up bro, tendernob tumblweeds blowing your way, 12 o'clock."

Tenderfoot 

American slang dating back to the time of the old west. It was used by people who were established in frontier towns to describe someone new, either to the area or the prevailing conditions; someone lacking experience and who was perhaps a little naive. Mildly disparaging but without any real malice it is still used occasionally to describe someone who is just starting out on their chosen career.

Despite having been to university, you’re still a tenderfoot when you start in the workplace.

tindernoia

"Wait. Didn't we just see that chick on tinder?"
"Bro. You just have a case of tindernoia""

"I can't believe I just said that to this SLUT. I hope I never see her in real life."
"Psh. Whatever. Don't be tindernoid"

TenderToast 

TenderToast is a surprisingly good and useful variation of the common toast we all enjoy.

TenderToast is made by placing two slices of bread into one toaster slot. The slot must be wide enough and is usually found on any toaster that accepts bagels. Best served with crunchy-side out.

Advantages of TenderToast:
- Abiltiy to make four slices of toast in a two-slice toaster.
- Toasts one side only. Crunchy on one side, warm and soft on the other.
- Makes a better BLT, fried egg sandwich or burger-bun substitute.

Carol and I were making fried-egg sandwiches one day. Needing four slices of toast, I was too lazy to wait and just put all four slices of bread in at the same time....turned out better than expected!!!

"Carol.....let's make it with TenderToast"

tenderness 

Of or relating to tender acts. Compassion, warmth, affection, gentleness.

Opposite of cruelty, violence, sadism, callousness, cynicism, bitterness.

"If a man is pictured chopping off a woman's breast, it only gets a R-rating, but if, God forbid, a man is pictured kissing a woman's breast, it gets an X-rating. Why is violence more acceptable than tenderness?"
-Sally Struthers

Adam stroked Kevin's hair, holding him with infinite tenderness while Kevin sobbed from a horrible day.

Ellie's rigid expression melted into tenderness as she saw her daughter running toward her.

Tenderloin 

The Tenderloin (aka The 'Loin or T.L) is a relatively small neighborhood located in downtown San Francisco, CA. Its borders are roughly the triangle made by Geary Blvd, Market St and Van Ness Ave. Some consider the Civic Center and Union Square to be a part of the Tenderloin.

Although the origin of its name is up for debate, no one denies this neighborhood is one of the most dangerous in the City, mainly known for problems like excessive drugs, prostitution, and a high number of homeless people. It's also one of the most dirty and grimy areas of San Francisco. It's highly recommended that visitors to this area exercise their street smarts and stay aware of their surroundings. If you look like a victim in the 'Loin, you'll probably be one. It's no wonder why there's a special police unit just for the Tenderloin.

The Tenderloin has some good things going for it too, however. It's home to some of the best ethnic restaurants in San Francisco, theaters, and hotels. It's also one of the most affordable areas of San Francisco.

Girl: The Tenderloin scares me!
Boy: Just be smart. Don't hang around at night and be aware.
