Friend Tenure 

Noun,

Paul - "Hey Jeff, why did you let Jasmine say that about you?"
Jeff- "I know she was just kidding and I've known her my whole life; she has friend tenure."

Tenuritis 

1. An affliction that disrupts economies of academic production that is most commonly observed amongst academics who have received tenure and give no fucks about 'outcomes', 'metrics' and basically getting any measurable shit done. Not to be confused with laziness or incompetence, or even aloofness; the causes are usually benevolent, but symptoms manifest towards early career researchers that have never known the luxury of free thought. Secondary symptoms can include,

1a. The affliction contributes to bizarre and sometimes non-sensical claims from research data that may, or may not exist, but have to be argued against anyways.

1b. The affliction may create relations where tenured academics end up peer-reviewing their own work through various boards, committees and editorial guidance to ensure their old ideas continue to circulate and are counted towards publication schemes, even if they're not sure what this means.

"'Did we get that paper in for publication on time?' 'No, prof. x Tenuritis' was acting up so no one gets the publication point'"
"My work with you shows that I'm interested and willing to collaborate on this project, however my tenuritis prohibits me from creating outcomes that will help you secure employment"
"I can't wait to get Tenuritis! I'm going to collage the shit out of some landscape paintings and then have my board buy them up and then BOOM - I'm Bric-à-bracking my way to head of school!"

Thenura 

A very unique person. You can look for a Thenura your whole life and will be very lucky if you come close to finding one. He has an extraordinary personality. Full of life and ambition, his sense of humor will leave you gasping for air and holding your stomach from laughing so hard. Usually, he stresses too much about school work and has a bad habit of not responding to your texts. But a Thenura cares about his friends and is a genuine person. Loves elephants and Nicki Minaj. He's a pocket full of sunshine. He's just the kind of person everyone loves. Always bouncing off the wall with his never ending energy, a Thenura is probably the best person you'll ever meet.
"How many light bulbs does it take to lit up a whole room?"

"Usually a lot, but Thenura is here so no need for any."

"How's it going with Thenura?"

"Eh, you know, just a little trouble in paradise."
