Tension

In modeling, it refers to the state of exhibiting intense fierceness with one's face and body during a photo shoot. One who does not exhibit tension can be said to resemble a "limp noodle". It quickly became a favorite term of supermodel Tyra Banks on the twelfth cycle of America's Next Top Model, much to everyone's annoyance.

For more examples of Tyraspeak, see "smize", "H2T", and "Ty-over".

Tension Rod

1. A spring loaded, metal rod used to hang drapes and curtains.

2. An uptight, dick head of a douche bag. Usually your boss or ass wipe of a co-worker. Tension Rods cause undue stress and pressure in the workplace due to incompetence, mismanagement, laziness and poor performance.

Tension Whore

Individuals like jesse jackson and al sharpton who seek out controversial incidents or subject matter to incite their followers' often violent reactions for the purpose of receiving attention.

It should be noted that Tension Whores are not limited to racial matters. Other notable Tension Whores include:

Tension Whores should not be confused with simple Attention Whores.
