A relationship where one person is the "user" and the other person is the "usee". Typical useries are disguised as friendships, marriages or business partnerships.
I thought I was married but it turned out I was in a usery for all she wanted was a roof over her head and a charge card in her hand.
My business went under because I didn't realize I was in a usery. My so-called partner took half the profits and did none of the work.

A loan-shark's "percentage extra" quote which is so outrageously exorbitant that you incredulously reply, "You serious?!"
In one of comedian-duo Bob 'n' Ray's "Garish Summit" episodes, mob-boss Harold W. Bigg grumblingly opines that the 50% "preferred borrowers" interest-rate that they've been allowing Caldwell Merchfield is too low now that Caldwell has been promoted to a higher-paying job at his family's lead-mining business; Mr. Bigg now feels that an even more userious interest-rate might be in order.
