avetard weekend 

For an avetard the weekend consists of Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. This is because an avetard never goes to class during the week and wakes up at 2 pm everyday because they were extremely baked the night before. It's always the weekend for an avetard
An avetard weekend consists of literally everyday of the week, those dudes are so lazy.

The Weeknd 

A talented black male r&b singer whose real name is Abel Makkonen Tesfaye. He is from Toronto, Canada. The Weeknd’s record label name is XO and his fans also go by XO. If someone says their an XO, then their a Weeknd fan. His album Trilogy, that was released in 2012 , consisted of his remixed and remastered versions of his 2011 mixtapes : House of Balloons, Thursday, and Echoes of Silence. Abel got his stage name ‘The Weeknd’ from his high school drop out status. He said him and a friend dropped out of high school at about 17 and left one weekend and never came back home. Abel had to remove the ‘e’ in his stage name since there was already a Canadian band with the name ‘The Weekend’.
